We are redefining how satellites are designed, manufactured and used—so we’re looking for candidates with passion, deep knowledge and direct experience on LEO satellite component development, design and inorbit activities. If that’s your experience – then we’ll be immediately wow-ed.
Responsibilities:
- Testbeds and GSE: Build, continuously improve, and operate lab facilities, HW testbeds, and ground support equipment (GSE) to test and validate sensors and actuators: jig design, assembly, rapid prototyping (CAD, 3D printing), SW development for testbed automation and logging (e.g., Raspberry Pi/Arduino/PixHawk), scripting for automating and data processing. Develop and operate tools for processing telemetry from satellite.
- Flight HW testing and delivery: Develop and execute characterization, qualification, and acceptance test procedures for flight HW, using GNC and system testbeds. Thoroughly document test results, processing data needed for calibration and sensor and actuator performance models tuning.
- HW management: Implement and maintain GNC HW tracking processes, including handling instructions, access controls, and test logging. Manage HW stock, procurement, and checkouts to ensure timely availability of HW components across sub-systems.
- Spacecraft AIT support: Participate in spacecraft Assembly, Integration, and Testing (AIT) activities, including flatsat testing and environmental testing, providing continuity between sub-system and system validation, up to on-orbit commissioning. Travel to AIT test facilities as required.
- Reviews and presentations: Participate, present, and prepare documentation for engineering reviews.
