Senior Systems Engineer

As a Senior System Engineer, you will support the full technical development of satellite missions - from early concept and requirements through to launch and in-orbit commissioning. You'll coordinate system-level activities, manage interfaces, and ensure technical consistency across subsystems, while maintaining control of the system baseline and engineering documentation., * Participation in technical activities planning, including technical schedule and cost;

• Manage core SE elements such as functional analysis, concept of operations, mission analysis, system modes, specification tree and requirements, interfaces and engineering database;
• Participation in risk, opportunity and resolution plans;
• Oversee sub-systems and software design, ensuring management and control of interfaces;
• Provide technical input to Product Assurance activities;
• Lead technical assessments, trade-offs, baseline definition and maintenance, budgets;
• Write and maintain engineering documentation;
• Manage system technical baseline and ensure change control;
• Ensure development and validation planning for system, spacecraft and Ground Segment in line with technical and programmatic constraints;
• Follow implementation phase ensuring successful execution of AIV/T phase;
• Support Launch and In orbit commissioning;
• Consolidate and iterate on the system engineering process at a company-wide level.

• (BSc/MSc) Degree in Aerospace, Engineering, Physics or similar;
• +10 Years' experience in spacecraft industry;
• Experience in decomposition of system requirements, trade studies and sizing/error budget development for a Spacecraft system;
• Familiarity with the full space program lifecycle, from business development, proposal generation and contract negotiations, all the way through design, development, assembly, test and successful delivery;
• Confidence with leading multidisciplinary project teams;
• Highly organized, capable of tracking multiple streams of critical activities at once., * Knowledge or a level of expertise including in one of these areas: Spacecraft System level design/analyses, Avionics/electronics, Electrical and Power, Attitude and Orbit Control, Propulsion, Thermal & Mechanical, Spacecraft AIT, Spacecraft LEOP + In-orbit operations, Manufacturing processes, Launcher Interfaces, FDIR;
