If you are ready to take on exciting challenges and be part of a company that is redefining the boundaries of satellite technology, we welcome you to embark on this thrilling journey with us!

Your Mission:

As an AOCS Engineer, you will join our dynamic team responsible for the entire AOCS (Attitude and Orbit Control System) subsystem lifecycle - from design to operations. You will lead the analysis, design, implementation, optimization, and enhancement of spacecraft attitude determination and control systems. Additionally, you will play a key role in our effort to increase vertical integration by developing critical components in-house.

• Requirements Derivation: Translate mission and system-level requirements into detailed AOCS subsystem specifications.
• Component Evaluation: Perform trade-off studies for component evaluations (e.g., sensors and actuators).
• Algorithm Development: Implement GNC algorithms to support various operational scenarios and pointing modes.
• Verification and Validation: Conduct AOCS system verification throughout the lifecycle, including processor-in-the-loop (PIL), hardware-in-the-loop (HIL), Monte Carlo simulations, and AIT.
• Code Deployment: Work closely with the flight software team to deploy AOCS software onto the spacecraft's embedded controller.

Your Background:

• Strong knowledge in state estimation, control law design, and orbital and classical dynamics.
• Proficiency in building complex simulations and dynamic models using MATLAB/Simulink.
• Good understanding of satellite systems, mission analysis, and satellite operations.
• Solid grasp of spacecraft attitude control and determination hardware, including sensors and actuators.
• Experience with model-based design verification: MIL, SIL, PIL, and HIL.
• Knowledge of embedded software architecture, focusing on real-time control systems, is a plus.
• Proven ability to independently solve complex engineering challenges and work effectively in cross-functional teams.

What We Offer:

• Collaborate with a diverse multinational team crafting the next wave of cutting-edge satellites.
• Embark on this exciting journey with us from the outset, leaving your indelible mark on a dynamic company and playing a direct role in shaping the future of the space industry.
• Keep your energy levels high with company-sponsored memberships for Urban Sports Club and Swapfiets.
• We provide a hybrid work model along with flexible working hours, empowering you as the owner of your time management.
• Nestled in the heart of Friedrichshain, our Berlin office provides a lively and central hub easily accessible by transit. Immerse yourself in a neighborhood teeming with vibrant restaurants and year-round cultural events.
• Enjoy the flexibility of ample vacation time, including a special company holiday on April 12th dedicated to celebrating the International Day of Human Spaceflight.

Join Reflex Aerospace and be a driving force in shaping the next era of space exploration! We look forward to your application.
