Senior GNC Engineer, SpaceActive$253K
The opportunity
Anduril's Space team is dedicated to expanding our AI-powered capabilities into the final frontier, enhancing Space Domain Awareness, Space Control, and Command and Control for U. S.
What you'll do
Lead spacecraft GNC software and hardware subsystems for various spacecraft: efforts in all orbital regimes and work closely with bus providers for successful implementation.
Develop modern, software-defined approaches to autonomous spacecraft: operations with maneuvering capabilities to successfully accomplish mission objectives.
Develop appropriate test plans and procedures to validate the GNC system: during ground checkout, on-orbit commissioning and operations.
Collaborate across multiple teams to plan, build, and test complex functionality.
Coordinate with end-users, other operators and customers to turn needs into: features while balancing user experience with engineering constraints.
Support challenging schedules during ground testing, launch windows and: on-orbit operations of the spacecraft systems.
What they're looking for
- A desire to work on critical software and hardware designs in the space domain.
- Experience testing propulsion subsystems in laboratory environments that: mimic the space environmental constraints.
- Experience with testing/validation leveraging FlatSats, Hardware-in-the-Loop: testbeds and digital spacecraft simulators through nominal and fault scenarios.
- Experience with computer vision and perception algorithms to support GNC operations.
- Exposure to US satellite operations policy and constraints for relevant mission threads in all orbits.
