Descrizione del lavoro

Overview

A Joint Venture between Thales (67%) and Leonardo (33%), Thales Alenia Space is a global space manufacturer delivering, for more than 40 years, high-tech solutions for telecommunications, navigation, Earth Observation, environmental management, exploration, science and orbital infrastructures. Thanks to our diversity of skills, talents and cultures, our customers (governments, institutions, space agencies, telecommunications operators) therefore have Space to Connect, Secure & Defend, Observe & Protect, Explore, Travel & Navigate.

We are looking for an Electrical Engineer with specific knowledge of electric motor drives and RFC analysis.

In this role you will be in charge of the system Electrical & EMC design and testing activities covering the following tasks:

• Assess and analyze mission System and Operational Requirement Documents, SRD / ORD.
• Interface main peers, (i.e., System E2E , Avionics, Payloads..)
• Implement Electrical and EMC/RFC architectures
• Assess electrical I/F resources, sizing and budgets
• Assess RFC issues through modeling and analysis
• Implement Power architecture in simulation environments
• Assess energy balance, resources sizing and justification
• Lead and conduct System and S/S Electrical & EMC IVVQ
• Support AIV across Product Life cycles
• Support OPS team for SVTs, FOP, LEOP sims, LEOP and commissioning
• Lead assessment of motor drives interfaces and performances
• Assess mitigation techniques of the impinging Electric field generated by satellite antennas and equipment basing on dedicated radar absorber materials and assessed through dedicates computational solver (e.g. CST)
• EMC and RFC satellite architecture definition, sizing and justification
• Conducted and Radiated analysis and circuit analyses
• ESD (internal bulk charging, external surface charging, discharge) analyses
• Magneto static field analyses
• RFC and Launch Vehicles compatibility analyses
• EMC and RFC requirements specification
• EMC budgeting, frequency and control plan definition
• EMC corrective actions design (e.g. filtering, shielding, gasketing)
• EMC design rules definition for harness
• EMC testing at equipment level (setup, requirements, validation)

This request is for a permanent position.

The working site is Rome, but it might be required working in other locations for short mid-term periods (e.g. subcontractors technical follow-up, attendance to external test facilities or counseling / support in customer premises)

Short periods of 24h shift working across the full week might be required upon specific program needs (e.g., AIT or LEOP schedule).
