Engineer responsible for satellite propulsion subsystems design including chemical, electric, and hybrid propulsion for defense space applications.
О компании
- 's Space team is dedicated to expanding our AI-powered capabilities into the final frontier, enhancing Space Domain Awareness, Space Control, and Command and Control for U.S. military and allied partners. We're developing fully integrated hardware and software systems, including Lattice for Space Missions and modular payloads, to address growing threats in space and ensure our Guardians maintain a decisive advantage in this contested war-fighting domain. WHY WE’RE HERE As a Propulsion Engineer for our Space team, you will contribute to the understanding and design of all satellite propulsion subsystems to include but not limited to chemical propulsion, electric propulsion, and hybrid systems. You will be responsible for possessing deep knowledge on state-of-the-art propulsion system
- Support the spacecraft propulsion subsystems for various spacecraft programs in all orbital regimes and work closely with bus providers for successful implementation
- Develop modern, software-defined approaches to autonomous spacecraft operations with maneuvering capabilities to successfully accomplish mission objectives
- Own the delta-V budgets and propulsion subsystem sizing to satisfy mission requirements
- Develop appropriate test plans and procedures to validate the propulsion system during ground checkout, on-orbit calibration and commissioning and on-orbit operations
- Develop the necessary fueling plans and procedures for the implemented propulsion system
- Collaborate across multiple teams to plan, build, and test complex functionality.
- Coordinate with end-users, other operators and customers to turn needs into features while balancing user experience with engineering constraints.
- Support challenging schedules during ground testing, launch windows and on-orbit operations of the spacecraft systems.
- Work with other teams and government agencies to achieve the required licenses (DOT, etc) for transporting fully fueled or pressurized containers within the spacecraft to the appropriate test and launch facilities
Требования
- Strong engineering background from industry or school, ideally in areas/fields such as Aerospace Engineering, Orbital Mechanics or other engineering degree.
- Ability to quickly understand and navigate complex systems and detailed requirements.
- Experience with chemical, electrical and hybrid propulsion sub-subsystem design for spacecraft
- Experience with managing propulsion vendors for successful delivery against mission and sub-system requirements
- Experience conducting spacecraft operations and satellite command and control with an emphasis on system reliability and uptime.
- Experience with orbital mechanics and resident space object tracking capabilities
- Capable of solving complex technical problems with little oversight
- Clear communication and organizational skills including documentation and training material
- Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance
Будет плюсом
- Experience with Python, Go, C++ and/or Linux systems
- A desire to work on critical software and hardware designs in the space domain.
- Experience testing propulsion subsystems in laboratory environments that mimic the space environmental constraints
- Experience with testing/validation leveraging FlatSats, Hardware-in-the-Loop testbeds and digital spacecraft simulators through nominal and fault scenarios
- Exposure to US satellite operations policy and constraints for relevant mission threads in all orbits
