Principal Satellite Gnc Systems Engineer

Design satellite GNC subsystems at MDA using orbital dynamics, attitude control, and real-time embedded software expertise across mission lifecycles.This principal-level engineer develops complete GNC subsystems for Earth observation and telecommunication satellites. Responsibilities span algorithm development, hardware implementation, validation, integration, and in-orbit support. The work includes requirements, simulations, control laws, and multidisciplinary coordination.Key Responsibilities:
Establish mission-based GNC requirements and maintain bidirectional traceabilityModel satellite dynamics using Matlab/Simulink and STK simulationsDevelop attitude, orbit determination, guidance, and station-keeping algorithmsLead avionics bench testing, verification, and commissioning sequencesSupport satellite operations, anomaly investigations, and performance reportingRequirements:
B.Sc. in Electrical, Aerospace, or Physics EngineeringTen-plus years in GNC/AOCS for LEO, MEO, or GEO platformsMastery of orbital dynamics, multi-axis control laws, and Kalman filtersHands-on integration, testing, and troubleshooting capabilityExcellent written and oral English communication skillsApply satellite GNC systems expertise across algorithms, verification, integration, and operational support for MDA missions.
