Senior GNC Engineer
At Reflect, you will be expected to move fast, have a lot of ownership and, most importantly, be able to effect change. If this excites you, we are interested in hearing about your best work and accomplishments across any domain and from any points in your life.
About the Role
As a Senior GNC Engineer you will directly shape the in-orbit performance of a novel space vehicle. Your work will span vehicle-level dynamics and control, orbit propagation, flight software and HITL testing on our avionics. We're looking for someone who brings "full-stack" GNC development capability to the table.
Responsibilities
Come up with creative solutions to the unique problems that come with precisely putting a spot of reflected sunlight on the ground from space.
Design, develop and test our closed-loop guidance, navigation and control for both attitude and orbit.
Plan trajectories and attitude motion profiles that satisfy our spot serving constraints.
Develop and own our 6-DOF simulation of vehicle attitude and orbital dynamics, and use it to characterize vehicle performance through Monte Carlo analysis.
