Support mission design for the LEO satellite constellation. The role supports constellation and orbit design, mission analysis and simulation, and space situational awareness (SSA) studies, as part of the mission-design team.

Job Responsibilities:

Constellation Design & Mission Analysis

• Support constellation and orbit design, including coverage, revisit, phasing, and geometry analysis.
• Perform mission analysis such as eclipse, visibility, and link geometry, under guidance.
• Use and help maintain mission-analysis and simulation tools (for example, STK, MATLAB, or Python).

Simulation & SSA Support

• Run mission simulations and document results.
• Support space situational awareness (SSA) studies, including basic conjunction awareness and debris-environment characterization.
• Prepare analysis notes and documentation, and support design reviews.

Job Deliverables:

• Constellation and orbit design and mission analysis supported (coverage, revisit, geometry, eclipse, visibility).
• Mission simulations and SSA studies supported and documented.
• Analysis notes and documentation prepared and maintained.
