What You'll Do
As a Senior AOCS Engineer, you will be a core contributor to the development and operation of spacecraft Attitude and Orbit Control Systems. You will work across attitude and orbit determination, guidance and control algorithms, spacecraft dynamics and simulation, sensor and actuator integration, and system-level verification and testing. You will contribute to taking AOCS algorithms from analysis and simulation through hardware integration, qualification, and mission operations.

Responsibilities
Design, implement, and test AOCS algorithms for satellite rendezvous and proximity operations
Develop and maintain high-fidelity 6-DoF spacecraft dynamics and AOCS simulation environments
Design and implementation of onboard position and attitude determination algorithms
Perform Monte Carlo analysis, sensitivity analysis, performance assessment, and AOCS budget analysis
Translate spacecraft-level and mission-level requirements into AOCS algorithms and test cases
Support integration of sensors and actuators into the satellite platform
Support SIL, PIL, HIL,



and hardware-level AOCS verification and validation campaigns
Analyze AOCS performance under sensor errors, actuator uncertainties, disturbances, and off-nominal conditions
Collaborate with mission design, and software teams to ensure seamless integration of AOCS into the satellite platform

What We Look For
Minimum Requirements
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Aerospace, Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics, Instrumentation, Control Systems, Physics, or a related engineering discipline
3+ years of qualified experience in spacecraft/satellite AOCS, or related systems
Experience with MATLAB, Simulink, C/C++, and/or Python
Strong understanding of spacecraft dynamics, orbital mechanics, attitude dynamics, estimation, and control systems
Ability to analyze system performance, identify failure modes, and debug AOCS issues across simulation and hardware
Strong technical communication and documentation skills
