Description
The role involves developing closed-loop trajectory control algorithms for a large satellite constellation. Engineers will plan orbital maneuvers to ensure satellites maintain their required positions for mission success. The position requires conducting simulation studies and on-orbit experiments to assess algorithm performance. Responsibilities include contributing to the development of new satellite generations through trade studies and hardware analysis. Additionally, the role entails writing production code for both satellites and ground segments while participating in architecture and design reviews.
Required Qualifications and Skills
Candidates must hold a bachelor's degree in an applicable engineering discipline, physics, math, or computer science. A strong fundamental understanding of dynamical systems is required. Applicants must possess software development experience in C++ and Python. Additionally, candidates must meet specific U.S. government export regulation requirements to be considered for the role.

About the company
SpaceX
Description
SpaceX designs, manufactures and launches the worlds most advanced rockets and spacecraft. The company was founded in 2002 by Elon Musk to revolutionize space transportation, with the ultimate goal of making life multiplanetary. SpaceX has gained worldwide attention for a series of historic milestones. It is the only private company ever to return a spacecraft from low-Earth orbit, which it first accomplished in December 2010. The company made history again in May 2012 when its Dragon spacecraft attached to the International Space Station, exchanged cargo payloads, and returned safely to Earth a technically challenging feat previously accomplished only by governments. Since then Dragon has delivered cargo to and from the space station multiple times, providing regular cargo resupply missions for NASA. For more information, visit www.spacex.com.
