Space Thermal Systems Engineer
Join our team and build the furure of space technology
The candidatewill join the Systems Engineering team in the Missions area, working on variouslow Earth orbit (LEO) nanosatellite missions. This area is responsible fortasks related to the design and analysis of the satellite's Thermal ControlSubsystem (TCS), using advanced design and analysis tools.
The selected person will participate in the detaileddesign of the nanosatellite's TCS, managing the implementation and testing ofthe thermal subsystem, ensuring that the design meets the mission requirements. Responsibilities will includesystem-level thermal analysis, hardware selection, planning and support forthermal vacuum tests, and supplier management. They will also collaborate withother technical teams to ensure compatibility between subsystems, optimizingthe satellite's thermal/structural performance.
In addition, the candidate may provide versatile supportin defining mission and technical specifications, managing technical budgets,and coordinating internal and external interfaces. They will also participate in the company’sproduct development projects.
