Job Description

Solution Architect at Aalyria focusing on 4G/5G Non-Terrestrial Networks and satellite communications. Leading architectural definitions and driving technology selection within Spacetime division.

Responsibilities:

  • Understand and, in some cases, end-to-end system architectures for Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) with knowledge of the end-to-end service chain (UE → RAN → Core → Transport/SDN (inc. front, mid and back-haul) → Service layer)
  • Lead customer engagement and projects around architecture for LEO/GEO/MEO and multi-orbit satellite systems integrated with 3GPP 4G/5G (Rel-17+) and future 6G concepts
  • Own architectural blueprints, interfaces, and decomposition across space segment, ground segment, and mobile network domains, in particular in their interactions with Aalyria’s Spacetime.
  • Lead customer solution architecture, requirements collection and translation into Spacetime requirements and project execution
  • Drive technology selection and trade-off analyses, where needed
  • Drive technical proposal writing for commercial and public sector customers
  • Design and optimize radio resource management (RRM), scheduling, beam management, mobility, and interference coordination mechanisms
  • Address satellite/NTN-specific constraints (Doppler, delay, ephemeris, beam hopping, power limits, feeder link constraints)
  • Ensure RRM and Spacetime implementation alignment with regulatory and spectrum constraints (ITU-R, regional regulators)

Requirements:

  • Strong background in 4G/5G mobile network architecture (RAN + Core)
  • Proven experience and understanding in SATCOM system architecture (space + ground)
  • Deep understanding of 3GPP architecture, protocols, and interfaces
  • Hands-on knowledge of RAN concepts: PHY/MAC, scheduling, mobility, beamforming, interference
  • Experience producing architecture documents, system diagrams, and technical specifications
  • Understanding of 3GPP APIs, RAN OAM and control plane concepts, networking protocols and interfaces
  • Understanding of concepts of cloud native, NFV, orchestration and automation, network automation and orchestration APIs, etc.
  • Strong communication and leadership skills, ability to interface with business stakeholders in the telco, satcom and defense sectors at all levels and work collaboratively in a cross-cultural team environment.

Benefits:

  • Competitive compensation package based on experience
  • Hybrid working policy with flexible arrangements
