A DAY IN THE LIFE

Senior GNC Engineer:

Develop Guidance, Navigation, and Control Architectures based on program requirements.
Conduct engineering approximations for expected navigation performance.
Conduct Actuator Sizing and Analysis, Inertial Navigation Analysis, aerodynamic vehicle modes assessment.
Develop and optimize trajectories using 3-DoF, 4-DoF & 6-DoF flight software.
Apply a strong understanding of closed loop guidance laws, such as Proportional Navigation, ZEM/ZEV, or reference trajectory tracking laws.
Include synthesis of mass, aero, propulsion, and structure models and constraints.
Include development of multi-objective functions to develop and optimize gain scheduled tables for aerodynamically-controlled vehicles.
Perform Monte Carlo (probabilistic analyses) to understand off-nominal closed-loop G/N/C performance.
Integrate simulations into an MDAO design environment.

WHAT WE OFFER

At SpaceWorks, we believe in cultivating a culture that offers the opportunity to grow both personally and professionally. It is our firm belief that work-life balance is critical to strong, happy, healthy employees. As we challenge what is possible and push the boundaries of innovation, we stand together as a team.
