Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you’ve come to the right place!

At E-Space, we’re focused on bridging Earth and space with the world’s most sustainable low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite network. We’re a team of bold thinkers, ambitious leaders and dynamic doers—and we’re disrupting NewSpace by fundamentally changing the design of legacy LEO space systems to deliver entirely new satellite capabilities at a fraction of the cost.

We’re intentional, we’re unapologetically curious and we’re 100% committed—to saving space, to protecting our planet and to turning connectivity into actionable intelligence.

We are looking to hire a software developer to contribute to the completion and deployment of our 5G software for both 3GPP Rel 15/16 5G gNB and UE. The software spans from PHY up to PDCP/RLC and RRM at gNB and to NAS at UE side. Depending on your previous experiences, you will start either in the PHY or Protocol Stack software development domain, and eventually have the opportunity cover both software areas.

Main duties and key responsibilities:

Implementation of 5G PHY and Protocol Stack algorithms onto processor platforms
Creation of test cases for PHY and Protocol Stack functionality
Verification of PHY and Protocol Stack functionality against test equipment such as R&S/Agilent or Commercial UEs
Debugging of SW implementation errors
Documentation of implemented work
Integration of 5G PHY and Protocol Stack with RF
Integration of 5G PHY with Protocol Stack
Dealing with SoC HW architecture
Effort estimation of implementation of SW task
Reporting on progress of SW implementation
Handling of customer request related to 5G PHY and Protocol Stack
Team player and agile SW development practices
Familiar with SDR and SoC architectures
Working in a local organisation with talent from all over the world. CommAgility has locations in Germany and England.
