Department US & Future Programs Nyx Moon & Future Systems
Here at The Exploration Company, we are developing, producing, and operating Nyx, a modular and reusable space orbital vehicle that can eventually be refuelled in orbit and that can carry cargo - and potentially humans in the longer run.
Our Future Projects unit is dedicated to expanding and complementing these capabilities by conceptualizing and pre-developing new technologies, products and programs.
We want you as a talented GNC engineer to help us in our mission by spacecraft and mission conceptual design, subsystem requirements development, algorithm development, software implementation and testing, operations, and post-flight analysis. You will work closely with our multidisciplinary team to optimize together the vehicle design and performances. You will be part of the Lander Team within the Future Systems Department, and will report to the Principal Engineer of the project and the Future Systems Lead.
Key Responsibilities In your capacity as Future Projects GNC Engineer (Navigation), your role will continuously evolve, but initially your day-to-day duties will include:
Take ownership of work packages or full future projects related to spacecraft navigation:
Define functional breakdowns, high level requirements and their associated flow-down and manage / maintain the technical baseline to ensure that the design answers the project needs
Provide hardware and software architectures and conceptual designs, perform technical trade-offs, budget and performance calculations for navigation systems
Manage interfaces and requirements towards Flight Software, as well as Avionics and other hardware sections
Develop GNC navigation models and algorithms
Develop high fidelity 6DoF simulation frameworks for model-in-the-loop analysis and testing
Collaborate with the Flight Software and Avionics teams to implement, test, verify and validate GNC algorithms in SIL and HIL testing
Provide development logic, implementation, verification and validation plans
Provide inputs to Flight Safety analyses
Ensure the delivery on time, on quality and on cost of the work packages in your responsibility
In coordination with the Bid Manager, elaborate the technical and programmatic parts for GNC related work packages to submit winning proposals for new future projects
What we would love to see from you In the role of Future Projects GNC Engineer (Navigation) ideally, you will have the following:
MSc. in Aerospace or related engineering discipline
+3 years of GNC engineering experience
Work experience / participation in the ideation, conceptualization and preliminary design phase of a spacecraft or space system development project
Strong understanding of classical dynamics, orbital and flight mechanics
Strong understanding of spacecraft navigation algorithms and sensors
Experience with flight physics simulation
Experience with the development of computer vision algorithms (camera, lidar)
Software development experience in C++, Python and MATLAB/Simulink
Preferably experience with integration of ASTOS and Simulink simulations
Passion for advancing the commercial space industry
Highly motivated to work in a fast paced, autonomously driven, and demanding start-up environment
Fluent in English. German, French, Italian or Arabic is an asset
Why you should join us!
What makes us special here at The Exploration Company and why we think you will enjoy working here is:
We’re Agile - we make decisions fast whilst keeping our goals and systems in mind
We’re Open and Collaborative - we are transparent about risks and obstacles, so that we can cooperate to overcome them
We have a lot of Fun - we refuel our energy knowing we are democratising space. It’s a wonderful and rare opportunity, are YOU up for the challenge?
We'd love to hear from you if you wish to be a part of our journey. Please submit your CV now for immediate consideration and we will be in touch shortly. The Exploration Company is an equal opportunity employer and values diversity. We do not discriminate based on race, religion, colour, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status or disability status. Relocation assistance is provided for those willing to relocate including visa sponsorship where applicable.
