We are looking for a Satellite Systems Intern to help define how a satellite operates across different mission phases, operating modes, and nominal and off-nominal scenarios. The intern will work closely with the Systems Engineering team, which is responsible for defining satellite- and subsystem-level requirements, developing the Concept of Operations and Operations Concept, managing design changes and their system-level impact, and supporting verification and validation of the satellite.

Key Responsibilities

• Translate mission objectives into structured satellite operational scenarios.

• Define spacecraft modes, states, transitions and recovery paths.

• Develop mission timelines and subsystem interaction flows.

• Map operational activities to spacecraft and ground-segment functions.

• Identify dependencies, edge cases, failure scenarios, and logical inconsistencies.

• Coordinate with subsystem teams to ensure operational plans are technically feasible.

• Prepare clear flowcharts, state diagrams, sequence diagrams, and system documentation.





Requirements
Requirements

• Strong understanding of state-based and event-driven systems.

• Excellent logical, analytical, and structured problem-solving ability.

• Ability to reason through both nominal and contingency scenarios.

• Ability to convert high-level objectives into transparent system behavior and step-by-step operational logic.

• Strong technical writing and diagramming skills.

• Comfortable identifying assumptions and working through ambiguous or incomplete requirements.

• Pursuing or recently completed a relevant engineering or technical degree.

Preferred

• Experience with spacecraft, CubeSat, robotics, embedded-system, or autonomous-system projects.

• Familiarity with systems engineering, mission operations, state machines, SysML, or requirements development.

• Basic scripting or modelling experience using Python, MATLAB/Simulink, or similar tools.
