Signal Data Processing Engineer

This engineer will process and analyze signal data obtained through microwave observation for mission equipment supporting global satellite services and marine observation using small-satellite constellations. The role converts acquired data into useful information for business and social applications.

Main responsibilities include designing and implementing digital signal-processing algorithms for Earth-observation sensors mounted on satellites. The engineer will also develop data-analysis and visualization methods, identify signals using machine learning, and verify algorithms through experiments and simulations. Collaboration with equipment-development and satellite-systems teams is part of the role.

Applicants can come from other industries because specialist knowledge of space and satellites can be learned after joining. The position involves work related to hardware development for applications including marine monitoring, disaster prevention, and resource management.

The organization has 57 members: 45 in technical roles, 4 in business roles, and 8 in administration. Development of technologies common to artificial satellites is conducted in cooperation with other technical departments.

The stated development environment includes GitHub, Slack, Zoom, Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Google Workspace, Google Drive, Git, GitHub Actions, AWS, Python, and Matlab. The work is primarily office-based at the Ariake office in Koto, Tokyo, with limited remote work available. The office is entirely non-smoking indoors. The selection process consists of document screening, a first interview, a second interview with an aptitude test, and a final interview.
