About this role
What You'll Do
In this role, you will work on design, simulation, and analysis for our Rendezvous, Proximity operations, and Docking mission. Your work will involve simulating mission scenarios and verification of mission-level requirements against system constraints. You will be collaborating with multiple teams across mission operations, flight dynamics, flight software to define a first-of-its-kind satellite servicing mission.
Responsibilities
- Perform modeling, simulation, analysis, and optimization of orbit design, RPO maneuvers, and relative motion analyses.
- Design and optimize mission CONOPs to support all mission phases including launch, commissioning, RPOD and end-of-life planning
- Perform critical trade studies that drive early design decisions balancing performance, cost, schedule, and risk
- Collaborate with Systems, Payload and subsystem teams to translate mission requirements into system and subsystem level requirements
- Track requirements, performance budgets, and critical parameters across the project life cycle, and support technical discussions with internal and external stakeholders
What We Look For
Minimum Requirements
- Strong understanding of orbital mechanics, astrodynamics, and space environment
- 1+ years of experience in mission design and analysis
- Hands-on experience with STK for mission design and analysis
