About the role

Recruiting in the United States (Washington, Vancouver) seeks a senior engineer to contribute end-to-end SAR engineering across the full lifecycle of a SAR space mission. You will influence mission concept of operations and spacecraft budgets for the SAR payload. You will lead technical solutions for mission enhancements—beam mode design, mission concept design, image quality modelling—and participate in mission-level risk management, integration, verification, and validation.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
