The role works closely with other members of the solution and services team and communicates with technical specialists on product issues.
The engineer will assess functionality, performance, and usability of complex space and defense modeling tools used by engineers, analysts, and mission planners. This includes verifying orbital mechanics models, satellite mission simulations, maneuver planning, and space situational awareness capabilities. The role also contributes to internal test infrastructure, automated testing processes, and tool development.
This position is not eligible for immigration sponsorship.
Key Duties and Responsibilities
Design and execute test strategies, test cases and test plans for orbital mechanics and aerospace mission simulation software.
Identify, document and track software defects, working closely with the development team to resolve them.
Apply technical expertise and engineering background to test design and decision making
Perform functional, regression, performance, and testing in both manual and automated environments
Collaborate with developers and domain experts to validate algorithms and mission modeling features
Automate test activities at the application and systems levels, focusing on space mission use cases
Expand test coverage of aerospace-specific functionality (e.g., orbit propagation, satellite tracking, maneuver planning)
Responsible for coverage analysis andtesting metrics in specific areas, participate in defect management
Monitor test results, investigate failures, and perform root cause analysis
Work in a variety of computing environments: [list, e.g. Windows, Linux, VM's, Compute Clusters, Cloud]
Support quality initiatives and ensure product requirements and industry standards are met
Minimum Education/Certification Requirements and Experience
BS in Aerospace Engineering, Astronautics, Systems Engineering, or related field with 5 years of experience, MS with 3 years of experience, or PhD with one year of experience
Programming experience in Python, C#, Java, Typescript
Understanding of satellite operations, mission design, or orbit determination concepts
Willing and able to work with both Windows and Linux environments
Exceptional problem-solving abilities and attention to detail
Excellent collaboration, communication, and analytical skills
Preferred Qualifications and Skills
Experience with STK, ODTK, or similar aerospace modeling tools
Experience with containerization technologies like Docker and Kubernetes
Coursework or experience in astrodynamics, orbital mechanics, or space systems
Familiarity with automated test frameworks such as NUnit,Junit, Web Test Runner, Jest
Experience with DoD accreditation frameworks like Air Force RMF
Experience with CI/CD practices and version control tools
Scripting experience in Perl or other scripting languages
Interest in advancing the quality and reliability of aerospace simulation software
Active DoD TS/SCI Clearance (or the ability and willingness to obtain a clearance)
Rewards and Benefits:
We offer a comprehensive range of health, wellness, and financial benefits to cater to your needs. Our total rewards include both monetary and non-monetary offerings. Your recruiter will provide more details about the salary range and benefits during the hiring process.
