  • Verify the navigation software implementation through open-loop and closed-loop Monte Carlo analysis as well as via unit testing
  • Collaborate on the implementation of the processor-in-the-loop, software-in-the-loop and hardware-in-the-loop testing, on-vehicle functional testing, and flight testing
  • Own the development and execution of component-level navigation test programs, including sensor characterization, sensor modeling, and integrated on-vehicle testing
Requirements
  • B.S. or M.S. or equivalent in computer science, aerospace engineering, or related technical field with 5+ years of proven experience
  • Demonstrated experience in the synthesis of state estimation algorithms and Kalman filters for navigation
  • Proven experience with build systems, version control, and testing methodologies
  • Strong software development and design skills with emphasis in C++ and Simulink/MATLAB, including skills in debugging and performance optimization
  • Experience with hardware and software integration and testing, including experience with sensor device drivers and I/O
  • Experience in verification and test of embedded software and systems
  • Operational knowledge of inertial and relative navigation sensors
Preferred Qualifications
  • Ph.D. or equivalent in computer science, aerospace engineering, or related technical field with 3+ years of experience
  • Experience in the development, implementation, and test of navigation algorithms for spacecraft navigation
  • Experience in vehicle rendezvous and proximity operations, ascent/descent navigation, or terrain relative navigation techniques
