Bachelor’s degree in Aerospace Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related field;  Master’s degree preferred

5+ years of experience in ground systems engineering, mission architecture, or similar roles

Proven experience architecting or supporting mission integration between spacecraft and ground segment

Strong knowledge with ground segment infrastructure, including TT&C, Ground terminals, data processing, and ground software systems

Familiarity of satellite subsystems (communications, power, thermal, payload integration)

Proficient in systems engineering tools (e.g., MBSE, SysML, DOORS, Cameo, STK, MATLAB)

Familiarity with spacecraft design

Experience with sensor data workflows, including tasking, ingest, processing and delivery to end users

Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills

Compensation :

The salary range for this role is $120,000 - $170,000 per year, depending on previous experience.  Pay ranges are determined by role, level, location, and alignment with market data.
