YOUR MISSION

We are looking for a Mission Architect to join our team in developing the next generation of space domain awareness and rendezvous and proximity operations systems. The Mission Architect will play a critical role in defining, analyzing, and ensuring the successful execution of missions across a system of systems.



In this role, you will own the mission definition, mission-level trades, mission technical direction, and customer alignment throughout the full program execution lifecycle, from contract award through mission completion.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Mission Design and Requirements Analysis

- Collaborate with customers, stakeholders, and internal teams to define and document mission objectives, system requirements, and operational concepts.
- Translate customer and mission needs into actionable engineering solutions while ensuring alignment with technical and programmatic constraints.
- Define key mission technical performance measures to establish a mission-driven decision-making framework.
- Apply analysis and modeling techniques, including parametric analysis, to support engineering decisions in the absence of specific requirements.
- Lead system trade studies, performance evaluations, and feasibility assessments to ensure an optimal system architecture.
- Lead the design, simulation, and analysis of rendezvous and proximity operations mission trajectories.
- Optimize spacecraft maneuvers to achieve mission objectives while considering fuel efficiency, timing, and risk mitigation.
- Prepare detailed technical reports, presentations,



and documentation for internal and external stakeholders, including government agencies and customers.

System Integration and Verification

- Oversee the integration of mission systems, ensuring seamless interaction among hardware, software, and operational components.
- Develop system-level integration and verification plans and conduct end-to-end testing to validate mission requirements.
- Coordinate with subsystem teams to troubleshoot and resolve integration challenges, ensuring mission readiness.
- Support mission operations teams during testing and real-time mission execution.

Modeling, Simulation, and Analysis

- Apply the fundamentals of astrodynamics using software and analysis tools, including orbit propagation, orbit determination, geometric orbit analysis, and mission engineering concepts.
- Design parametric analyses and Monte Carlo studies to support engineering decision-making.
- Conduct system performance analyses, including assessments of reliability, safety, and mission effectiveness under various environmental conditions.
- Assess mission success criteria and operational risks and propose mitigation strategies.
- Conduct pre-flight and post-flight mission analyses, including trajectory reconstruction and anomaly investigations.

QUALIFICATIONS

- 12+ years of experience in mission analysis, space operations, or orbital mechanics.
- Solid technical leadership and systems architecture experience.
- Demonstrated expertise in rendezvous and proximity operations mission design and spacecraft operations.
- Strong understanding of orbital mechanics, spacecraft dynamics, and autonom
