Job Description |
**Responsibility** - Attitude and Orbit Control System (AOCS) design, analysis, implementation, testing, and maintenance. **Details of Work** - Design, implement, test, and validate algorithms used in the AOCS of Synspective's Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellites, including sensor data filtering, orbit and attitude estimation, attitude control, reaction wheels and magnetorquer control, operation modes control, and failsafe mechanisms. - Work closely with embedded software engineers to integrate the AOCS into the flight software. - Validate the design through unit testing, Model In the Loop Simulation (MILS), Hardware In the Loop Simulation (HILS), and physical satellite tests. - Assist in the testing and validation of AOCS components during the satellite Assembly, Integration, and Testing (AIT) process. - Model sensors, actuators, and other physical components in MATLAB/Simulink/Simscape and fit the component model using test data. - Participate in launch campaigns by preparing necessary items for launch operation, monitoring behavior during critical phases, and providing technical support to the satellite operation team. - Participate in weekly meetings and design reviews. - Perform design studies for the development of our next generation of satellites. - Review and validate designs and test results. - Mentor more junior members. **Selling Points of the Role** - Great opportunity for growth as an engineer. - Experience the complete lifecycle of a satellite, from early design to launch and in-orbit operation. - Work in an international team. |
Company Info | This Company is building a constellation of SAR satellites that will produce hundreds of images of the Earth everyday. We are looking for a radar engineer to develop, implement and evaluate various algorithms for radar data processing, calibration and image quality assurance. |
