    • 7+ years of experience designing and implementing GNC algorithms including performing on-orbit control of spacecraft
    • 5+ years of experience developing and deploying control systems for real world applications
    • Proficient in MATLAB, Simulink, C/C++, and/or Python
    • Experience with classical, modern, and optimal control theory
    • Experience performing system error budget analysis for spacecraft attitude control
    • Experience performing orbital modeling, prediction, and optimization
    • Knowledge of spacecraft ADCS sensors, actuators and control methods
    • Knowledge of orbital mechanics, including rendezvous and formation flight algorithms
    • Experience working in a lab and using laboratory test equipment
    >
ITAR Requirements:
    • To conform to U.S. Government space technology export regulations, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) you must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
