SKYNOPY

Skynopy is a Paris-based startup founded in October 2023 by Pierre Bertrand and Antonin Hirsch, both former directors at Loft Orbital. The company specializes in providing end-to-end connectivity solutions for satellite operators, particularly those with satellites in Low-Earth Orbit (LEO). Their mission is to simplify satellite communication, making it as seamless as using a mobile phone.

To achieve this, Skynopy offers an "as-a-service" model that allows operators to send commands and receive data through a hybrid network of ground antennas. This approach enables operators to focus on their missions without the need to manage complex connectivity infrastructure.

As part of our RF team, you will work on the development of innovative communication techniques for space-to-ground communications . Here's a breakdown of the tasks you could be involved in: Simulation : Contribute to the development of a software simulator to recreate a typical low-earth orbit satellite scenario. It will include simulation of propagation effects, RF front-ends, space and ground antennas and their effects on a transmitted RF signal. Software Defined Radio : develop software modules for signal demodulation such as PLL/DLL, time-synchronisation, Phase/Frequency compensation. Custom Signal Processing : Implement custom signal processing algorithms to analyze and enhance the signal received on-ground by several antennas, employing combination techniques and beamforming theory. System evaluation : Benchmark the identified solutions by evaluating the benefit and complexity of each technique also with respect to hardware implications. Test-bed Solutions :...

As an intern, you will be able to collaborate with and be guided by the developer team of Skynopy. You will be able to learn and work with a team of skilled people. Contribute to Skynopy software development (30%) To enable you to ramp up on space operation and get a global picture of the Skynopy software, you will contribute to the platform development. Helped by the team, you will be working on small feature implementations such as: coding a simple API endpoint in the backend add logs on a component of the infrastructure to enhance observability improve the testing and the deployment of components Integrate a “Mission Control Software” (70%) In addition to the overall development of Skynopy infrastructure you will be in charge of your project: selecting and integrating a Mission Control Software into our infrastructure. You will be supervised and helped to be able to add this new brick. What is “Mission Control Software”? Mission control software...
