As a Mission Analysis Engineer on the Mission Analysis Engineering Team, you will be the Responsible Engineering Authority (REA) for all modeling, simulation, and analysis for a program, study, or proposal. You will develop methods to simulate mission scenarios and assess end-to-end constellation capabilities; design and implement image processing, inertial tracking, state estimation, and optimal control algorithms for sensor systems; and provide tools and modeling platforms for validating system performance during on-orbit mission operations. You will work shoulder-to-shoulder with technical and program leadership.
Job Responsibility:
Build and maintain simulations for large satellite constellations to assess effectiveness against mission requirements
Own the Electro-Optical/Infrared (EO/IR) image processing algorithms chain, from photon to Warfighter
Create models for space vehicle payloads to use in system trades and performance predictions
Develop novel algorithms, models, and data processing schemes for EO/IR sensing and tracking systems
Concepts of Operation (CONOPS)/Design Reference Mission (DRM) development, modeling, and simulation
Collaborate with software and firmware teams to develop platforms for simulation deployment (eg. software/hardware-in-the-loop)
Program management activities to ensure high-quality work products are delivered on time and the proposed mission solution meets the customer’s need
Requirements:
9+ years experience in aerospace systems design, analysis, and/or operation
Bachelor’s degree in engineering or the physical sciences / computer science
Experience in modeling and simulation of complex satellite systems using common tools such as Matlab/Simulink, Python, or C++
Experience with EO/IR optical systems and image processing algorithms
Experience in orbital mechanics and kinematic state estimation
Ability to obtain a U.S. Security Clearance
