MECHATRONICS ENGINEER

WHO ARE WE?
Satcube AB is a scaleup working in the SATCOM industry, based in Gothenburg and with production in Karlstad. Consisting of a small but strong team of 25 professionals with 30 years of experience in the business, we are working on revolutionizing the satellite communications industry. The core of the company is our lightweight satellite terminal, capable of providing high speed internet to anylocation on earth. Besides providing critical communication channels and backup infrastructures to the UN, governments and first responders our products enable reporters to broadcast live from all corners of the globe – just to mention a handful of the use cases that you would help us cover.
WHAT IS THE JOB ABOUT?
You will primarily be working on developing the mechatronics of our future range of products, targeting the new Low Earth Orbit satellites. Since these satellites are in constant motion, we need to build a mechanical platform that can steer our antenna. Your task involves selecting suitable motors and gears, writing code and algorithms to control the steering, selecting sensors, implementing sensor fusion algorithms for establishing the pointing direction, manufacturing prototypes, and validating system level performance. This work will be carried out together with our experienced engineering team.
Because we are a small team with big visions you are also going to be working together with other colleagues on separate projects, very likely in areas outside of your exact previous experience. We can guarantee that no two days will be the sameand that you will rapidly develop many new skills sets by working with us.



WHY WORK WITH US?
Responsibility from day one.
Cutting edge engineering challenges on a daily basis.
Work in a highly international business with partners and clients all over the globe. Overseas client meetings are frequent.
Experience being part of the rapid growth of a scaleup.
Contribute to a fascinating industry. “New Space” is one of the world’s fastest growing sectors, with 150 billion SEK in yearly investments.



WHO SHOULD APPLY?

University degree in mechatronics and control engineering
Experience in embedded software development in C/C++ and Python
Interest in control algorithms, sensor fusion and machine learning
English professional proficiency



Desired experience:
Hobby interest in microcontrollers (e.g. RasperryPi), robotics, drones etc.
Basic proficiency in 3D CAD
