About the job

Requirements
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline.
  • 2–5 years of experience developing test automation for wireless, networking, embedded, or distributed systems.
  • Strong Python programming skills and experience building maintainable automation frameworks or test tools.
  • Good working knowledge of Linux, including shell scripting, process and service management, networking, and system debugging.
  • Practical understanding of TCP/IP networking and experience troubleshooting connectivity and data-transfer issues.
  • Experience analyzing system logs and network traffic to isolate failures across multiple components.
  • Experience developing and maintaining functional, regression, integration, or performance test suites.
  • Experience with Git and collaborative software-development workflows.
  • Familiarity with continuous integration and continuous delivery pipelines and automated test execution.
  • Experience working with virtualized environments such as VMware, Proxmox, or similar platforms.
  • Ability to work effectively in a hands-on lab environment and collaborate across multiple engineering disciplines.
Responsibilities
  • Develop and maintain a scalable automation framework for end-to-end validation across wireless devices, radio access systems, network functions, and lab infrastructure.
  • Write Python automation scripts, reusable libraries, and test harnesses for functional, regression, integration, performance, and release-qualification testing.
  • Automate end-to-end test scenarios such as device registration and attachment, connectivity, data transfer, recovery behavior, and system key performance indicator validation.
  • Coordinate test execution across virtualized systems, embedded devices, hardware-in-the-loop platforms, and physical lab equipment.
  • Automate system configuration, test setup, log collection, result processing, and report generation.
  • Develop tools for packet capture and protocol-level analysis to verify expected system behavior across interfaces.
  • Measure and analyze system performance, including throughput, latency, packet loss, reliability, and other end-to-end key performance indicators.
  • Support testing with radio-frequency and networking equipment, including channel emulators, spectrum analyzers, signal generators, and traffic-generation tools.
  • Investigate automation and test failures by correlating logs, packet captures, device behavior, and system events across multiple components.
  • Distinguish product defects from test-environment, infrastructure, configuration, and automation-framework issues.
  • Develop and maintain automation code using Git-based development workflows and support integration with continuous integration and continuous delivery pipelines.
  • Own defect lifecycle management in Jira by reproducing issues, documenting evidence and impact clearly, and tracking defects through resolution and verification.
  • Collaborate with device, radio, network, platform, systems, and test teams to improve test coverage, reliability, and release readiness.
Desired Qualifications
  • Experience with cellular or wireless-system architecture, including device/user equipment, radio access network, and 5G Core functions.
  • Experience validating end-to-end cellular registration, attachment, connectivity, and data-transfer procedures.
  • Familiarity with radio-frequency test equipment such as spectrum analyzers, signal generators, power meters, or channel emulators.
  • Experience with Wireshark, tcpdump, iperf, or similar network-analysis and traffic-generation tools.
  • Experience with hardware-in-the-loop testing involving embedded radio or communications hardware.
  • Familiarity with monitoring and visualization tools such as Grafana or Prometheus.
  • Exposure to Non-Terrestrial Networks, satellite communications, or low Earth orbit communication systems.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Arlington approved E-Space’s 30-year lease, signaling unusually strong local government backing.
  • Beyon and e& partnerships validate satellite IoT demand across Bahrain and Gulf operators.
  • The company’s sustainability pitch matches rising enterprise demand for cheaper, lower-impact connectivity.

What critics are saying

  • Arlington’s Spring 2027 build depends on $115 million public spending and strict hiring milestones.
  • E-Space disclosed only $50 million funding, far below its massive constellation ambitions.
  • If Arlington slips or capital dries up, E-Space becomes a perpetual concept company.

What makes E-Space unique

  • Greg Wyler’s patented LEO design targets zero-trust, gateway-free satellite networking.
  • CommAgility integration gives E-Space 5G NTN source code and payload development depth.
  • Arlington’s 2025 headquarters plan ties manufacturing, hangars, and satellite R&D together.
