We are looking for a senior software engineer to build the Linux platform software of Eutelsat's next generation LEO, multi-orbit and IRIS² user terminals: the layer that wraps the modem and the antenna subsystem, exposes them through clean and stable APIs, integration of higher layer of the User Terminal software stack to ensure tight and seamless interaction between the application functions of the UT and the NAS layer of the software stack for call setup, retry and automated recovery from failures etc. Making the terminal manageable, observable and serviceable in the field. Everything above the physical layer that a terminal needs in order to be operated at scale sits in your scope.

You will also bring the insights and know-how on how end-user applications e.g. CBH, vessel engine management, SD-WAN solution etc, interface with the User Terminal and the QoS signaling and traffic management/control on the user plane.

You will work alongside our modem and RF architects and with external engineering partners. The terminal is a constrained embedded system with real-time neighbours, so the work spans device level integration, service design and operational tooling: control and telemetry paths, secure update, diagnostics, and the interfaces towards our ground systems and our support organisation.

This is a founding role in a capability under construction. The architecture, the tooling and the practices are still to be defined, and what you build will become the software foundation of the terminal portfolio.

What you'll do

• 
  
• Collaborate across teams to translate product, service and operational requirements into robust technical implementations;
  
• Design, develop and maintain the terminal platform software on embedded Linux: system services, device abstraction, inter-process communication, lifecycle and state management, and the boundary towards the modem and antenna subsystems;
  
• Design and maintain the terminal APIs: local and remote control interfaces, configuration, telemetry and event streams, versioning and backward compatibility, and the contract they establish with our ground systems and management platforms;
  
• Implement the control and monitoring paths towards the modem and the antenna manager: command sequencing, state synchronisation, error propagation, and the timing constraints these interfaces impose;
  
• Build the observability of the terminal: structured logging, metrics, event and fault reporting, capture of diagnostic data, and the remote access paths our field and Tier-4 support teams depend on;
  
• Own secure and reliable software update in the field: image management,
