• Generate and verify maneuver plans and assess thruster performance
• Develop, and maintain Flight Dynamics operational procedures

What It Takes:

• Minimum BS in Aerospace Engineering, Math, Physics, or other relevant Engineering field
• Experience in satellite navigation, orbit determination, maneuver, attitude and trajectory planning
• Experience with:
  • Orbit analysis tools, e.g., GMAT, OREKIT, STK, FreeFlyer
  • One or more of the following: Java, Python
  • Unix/Linux OS based systems
• Ability to work in an environment with rapidly changing mission/system requirements
• Demonstrated ability to work independently, take ownership of all aspects of job and take initiative
• Excellent oral and written skills and communication skills is essential

What We’d Love:

• Flight Dynamics Experience
• Operations experience with multi-satellite LEO constellation operations
• Professional work experience in LEO satellite navigation, orbit determination, maneuver, attitude and trajectory planning
