Satake his doctorate in 1950 at the University of Tokyo. He was a professor at the University of Chicago and from about 1970 to the University of California, Berkeley. 1958 to 1960 and 1967 he was at the Institute for Advanced Study.

Satake worked on algebraic groups and their classification. In 1957 he gave to a compactification of the seal between the upper half-space in several complex dimensions. According to him, the Satake compactification defined by the action of arithmetic groups of symmetric spaces is named.
