Senior Systems Engineer – Satellite Communications at Ovzon

At Ovzon, you will work with the space-based systems that enable satellite communications when terrestrial infrastructure is insufficient, unavailable or disrupted. The role combines RF engineering and system-level design with requirements engineering, procurement, supplier collaboration and verification.

About the role

Ovzon develops and delivers integrated mobile satellite communication services. Its communications system includes Ovzon 3, the company’s proprietary geostationary satellite, featuring steerable spot beams and an On-Board Processor that enables communication even when ground infrastructure is limited or unavailable.

As a Senior Systems Engineer, you will work at the heart of Ovzon’s technical organization and take responsibility for how the communications system is designed, specified and verified as a whole. The role requires a broad system perspective: understanding how different technical domains interact, evaluating alternative solutions and ensuring that external suppliers meet defined requirements.

You will be based at Ovzon’s Stockholm office, where much of the company’s technical development takes place. The workplace combines a highly specialized engineering environment with an open, forward-looking culture and close collaboration across technical disciplines. Many colleagues bring experience from the space industry and strong academic backgrounds, creating an environment where technical discussions, shared learning and complex problem-solving are part of the day-to-day work. With additional offices in the United States, you will also be part of an international organization with connections across teams and markets.
