$110,000.00/yr - $170,000.00/yr
Location: Hybrid 2–3 days per week in-office (Irvine, CA or Arvada, CO)
Clearance: Active U.S. Security Clearance (TS/SCI) required
As a
Ground Systems Integration Engineer , you’ll be responsible for developing and integrating
Command & Control (C2)
software solutions for satellite systems. Working closely with customer stakeholders, you’ll translate mission requirements into scalable, reliable engineering solutions using modern mission management platforms.
Your primary focus will be on integrating new spacecraft and flight software into existing ground system architectures, ensuring smooth communication between satellites and ground assets. You’ll collaborate with a cross‑functional team of engineers to deliver robust, high‑quality solutions that simplify satellite operations and enhance mission performance.
Key Responsibilities
Design, develop, and integrate
C2 software
for spacecraft and ground systems.
Collaborate with customers to decompose mission objectives into technical solutions.
Integrate new satellites and flight software into mission management platforms.
Perform low‑level software integration and debugging across software‑hardware interfaces.
Support the development and integration of solutions into broader system architectures.
Build and maintain expertise in
C2 standards and protocols , including CCSDS, CSP, CFDP, XTCE, and MIB.
Ensure integrations meet high standards of reliability, maintainability, and scalability.
Technical Qualifications
Proficiency in
Python, C++, or Java .
Experience developing
real‑time embedded software
or integrating hardware assets with mission software.
Preferred experience with
satellite communication protocols
such as CCSDS, CSP, CFDP, IP, and associated data processing algorithms.
Familiarity with
XTCE ,
MIB , or equivalent telemetry and command data frameworks.
Understanding of
encryption algorithms
such as AES‑256 (GCM, CFB, ECB), NSA Type 1 PEGASUS, and CARIBOU.
Preferred experience with
AWS cloud services
(Lambda, ECS, EKS, CloudWatch, S3, EFS/EBS, EC2, RDS).
Familiarity with
Git/GitHub
or equivalent version control tools.
Preference for candidates with experience contributing to or using
open‑source software .
Soft Skills
Strong analytical, debugging, and problem‑solving abilities.
Highly adaptable; able to integrate diverse missions and systems efficiently.
Strategic thinker with a focus on scalability and operational efficiency.
Self‑motivated and capable of managing projects independently.
Committed to software quality, maintainability, and performance excellence.
Effective communicator with the ability to convey complex concepts to technical and non‑technical audiences.
Education & Experience
Bachelor’s degree in
Computer Science, Electrical Engineering , or a related field.
3+ years of experience in
satellite command and control systems
or comparable hardware‑software integration environments.
Active U.S. Security Clearance (TS/SCI) required.
Seniority level Mid‑Senior level
Employment type Full‑time
