Guidance, Navigation & Control Engineer II

About the role

Contribute to the design, analysis, and testing of guidance, navigation, and control systems that enable spacecraft to operate in complex space environments. Collaborate closely with multidisciplinary teams to develop robust, flight-proven GN&C solutions and ensure mission success through rigorous simulation and validation.

Responsibilities

• Perform spacecraft controls design, analysis, simulation, and testing activities.
• Develop and validate GN&C algorithms and flight software.
• Utilize simulation and programming tools (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink, C++, Python).
• Apply Kalman Filtering and Attitude Determination techniques to mission design.
• Support hardware integration and mission operations in a dynamic, team-oriented environment.

Requirements

• A minimum of 1+ years of related experience.
• A post-secondary degree or training in a related discipline.
• Experience with flight software development and autocode to C++ (desired).
• Jitter analysis experience (highly desired).
• Familiarity with a GN&C hardware suite for space applications.
• Mission operations experience.
• Ability to work in a fast-paced, dynamic, collaborative team environment.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to articulate complex technical issues to peers, management, subcontractors, and customers.

Qualifications

• U.S. Citizenship required due to security clearance requirements.

Skills

• Strong experience in spacecraft controls design, analysis, simulation, and test.
• Experience with simulation and programming tools such as MATLAB/Simulink, C++, Python.
• Experience with Kalman Filtering and Attitude Determination.
