Export Control Requirement:Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (i.e., current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum.About the teamThe mission of the Guidance, Navigation and Control team is to fly the satellites. We design the constellation for good coverage and space safety, then invent the guidance techniques that maneuver each satellite, winding its way up from injection to an operational orbit, merging into the constellation flow, and maintaining stationkeeping, staying in appropriate relative position with its neighbors. Additionally, every spacecraft is ready and able to maneuver at any time to avoid other satellites or space debris if a close pass threatens. Navigation functions use GPS to provide precise positioning in real-time, as forecasts into the future, and taking into account maneuvers we plan to make and drag the spacecraft experience. This allows the payloads and solar panels can perform their mission, each satellite has an onboard autopilot or "attitude determination and control system" that computes orientation and what to do about it. The team specifies the type, power and precision of control actuators like torque rods and reaction wheels, the many different sensors for measuring orientation and motion, and the compute algorithms in between. We write those control loop algorithms with a larger physics simulation that models the spacecraft in high dynamic detail.BASIC QUALIFICATIONS- 5+ years of non-internship professional systems engineering experience- 5+ years of leading design or architecture of new and existing systems experience- Experience working with an interdisciplinary team of engineers on complex projects- Experience as a mentor, tech lead or leading an engineering team ...
