Description
About the Role
We are seeking a Senior Spacecraft GN&C Engineer to own the implementation, maintenance, and validation of the mission’s end-to-end pointing control simulation for advanced space observatory missions.
This is a hands-on modeling, simulation, and verification role. The engineer will implement the integrated pointing simulation, incorporate vendor models and assumptions, develop scripts for pointing verification, process simulation and test outputs, and generate evidence for subsystem and system-level requirement verification.
The role will directly support the spacecraft pointing lead and will work closely with systems engineering, spacecraft bus, telescope, WCC, FSM, instrument, jitter, structural, science, AI&T, software, and mission operations teams.
The ideal candidate has strong experience in spacecraft GN&C, AOCS/ADCS, control-system modeling, pointing systems and analysis, simulation development, and verification of precision pointing systems.
Key responsibilities for this role include the following:
