KSAT seeks Regulatory and Frequency Lead!

KSAT Hyper is a new venture from Kongsberg Satellite Services (KSAT), delivering low-latency connectivity services to customers with high-performance, time-sensitive missions in orbit. As KSAT Hyper scales globally, the management of spectrum, licensing, and regulatory relationships is mission-critical — ensuring that services are coordinated, compliant, and protected across international jurisdictions.

We are hiring a Regulatory and Frequency Lead to manage all spectrum-related activities for the venture. This role sits within the KSAT Spectrum Office but will be 100% dedicated to KSAT Hyper, working closely with engineering, legal, and external authorities to enable and defend the system's operational footprint.

Your Mission

• Act as KSAT Hyper's primary liaison to national and international frequency regulators including Nkom, ITU, FCC, and others (e.g., Japan's MIC)

• Lead licensing, coordination, and filings necessary to operate KSAT Hyper services globally

• Coordinate internally across legal, RF, engineering, and program management to ensure seamless regulatory execution

• Represent KSAT Hyper in coordination meetings, ITU working groups, and relevant policy forums — advocating for regulatory outcomes that protect system performance

• Monitor and respond to regulatory developments, spectrum trends, and policy changes affecting service delivery

• Support KSAT Hyper customers by advising on licensing pathways, integration needs, and regulatory planning

• Optimize spectrum and orbital resources to ensure service quality and long-term viability

• Support bilateral coordination, filing strategy, and regulatory risk assessments

What You Bring

• 5+ years of experience in spectrum management, satellite licensing, or telecommunications regulation

• Deep knowledge of ITU Radio Regulations, coordination procedures, and international frequency management frameworks

• Experience working with authorities such as Nkom, ITU, FCC, and international spectrum bodies

• Understanding of how regulatory constraints interface with RF and service architecture

• Ability to collaborate across technical, legal, and executive stakeholders

• Excellent communication, documentation, and negotiation skills — especially in cross-border or multilateral contexts

• Bachelor's degree in Telecommunications, Engineering, Spectrum Policy, or a related field (Master's or legal/regulatory training is a plus)

• Fluency in English required; proficiency in Norwegian is a strong advantage

Why Join KSAT Hyper

• Own the regulatory and frequency function of a globally scalable connectivity service

• Represent KSAT Hyper in high-impact forums and protect its ability to operate worldwide

• Work at the convergence of policy, RF systems, and cutting-edge mission enablement

• Join a trusted organization with global reach and a fast-moving, mission-driven venture team
