Aerospace Engineer developing mission planning and space system analysis workflows for NorthStar. Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure integration across mission planning and backend systems.
Responsibilities
Focus on algorithms, models, workflows, propagation, and scenario validation to implement a next generation SSA mission planning engine.
Collaborate with Mission Planners to design and implement automated workflows including calculation of access windows, visibility periods, pointing geometry, and resulting overlay with onto space system constraints.
Integrate mission planning workflows with internal and external systems via APIs for tasking and data exchange.
Build unit, integration, and regression tests for mission planning and simulation pipelines.
Validate scenarios against expected orbital geometry, constraints, and mission objectives.
Extend NorthStar’s SSA operational picture with operational monitoring, telemetry and validation tools and dashboards.
Define and report performance metrics to support operations.
Connect mission-planning engine to backend services to report on data acquisition results against planned access windows, pointing geometry, and mission constraints.
Identify anomalies, missed opportunities, and degraded acquisitions.
Generate dashboards and reports summarizing data quality, coverage, and performance trends to inform operations and future planning.
Participate in design reviews and technical discussions to align development activities with project goals.
Share insights, solutions, and best practices to elevate team performance and advance mission capabilities.
Requirements
Degree in Aerospace Engineering, Physics, Computer Science, or related field.
Strong analytical skills and comfort working with astrodynamics data and space systems.
Experience with scientific/analytical libraries such as NumPy, SciPy, Pandas.
Experience developing microservices or data-processing pipelines is considered a strong asset.
Experience with languages such as C++, Rust, or Java considered an asset.
Preferred direct experience with astrodynamics and mission planning tools, such as: STK, GMAT, Orekit, Astropy, SGP4 propagation libraries, or similar.
Experience with orbital mechanics, constellation planning, or spacecraft operations.
Experience integrating multiple systems or data pipelines in operational environments.
Familiarity with modern backend technologies and cloud platforms.
Benefits
Health and dental coverage through our group plan from Day 1.
Flexible working hours and a hybrid work model.
