About You
Our mission is driven by an unyielding commitment to advancing space-based technology in service of our customers and safeguarding national security. We seek individuals who are passionate about innovating beyond boundaries and relentlessly pursuing solutions that protect, preserve and empower – to join us in this critical mission.
We’re looking for team members who align with our values, mission and goals – while also meeting the minimum qualifications below. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.
Minimum Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in aerospace engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, or a related technical field (or equivalent work experience in lieu of degree). Master’s degree is preferred for candidates with 6+ years of related experience.
8+ years of experience in GNC algorithm design, subsystem integration, and spacecraft development.
Familiarity with advanced guidance and control algorithms, including optimal control and autonomous navigation using LIDAR, vision, GPS, and RGPS techniques.
Experience with leading the development of complex GNC mode managers for subsystem-level control across spacecraft flight phases.
Proficiency in STK, JIRA, Confluence, and MS Project.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience setting up integrated closed-loop dynamic models, performing MIMO linearization, and analyzing closed-loop data interactions.
Expertise in integrated GNC design.
Knowledge of spacecraft subsystems, including power, thermal, communication, and structural dynamics, with the ability to perform system-level trades.
Perform system-level trades across power, thermal, communication, and structures to optimize subsystem performance and compliance with requirements.
Familiarity with sensor interfacing to onboard avionics, understanding physical compute limitations, developing interface definitions, and target timing requirements.
Utilize advanced tools such as STK (Level 2 Certification), JIRA, Confluence, and MS Project to manage tasks and track progress.
Effective leadership and mentoring skills, with the ability to guide junior engineers and collaborate across multidisciplinary teams.
