Software Engineer, Space

In the Space Special Programs team we build spacecraft and space systems which serve a wide variety of functions in the space architecture. At a time when space superiority can no longer be taken for granted and with space systems proliferating at an incredible rate the Space Special Programs team provides advanced mission critical capabilities to our customer base to be able to more effectively operate and survive within this expanding environment with limited personnel. Working across product engineering saleslogistics operations and mission success the Space Special Programs team develops tests deploys andoperatesnew unique space capabilities to drive mission success in challenging operational environments.

We are looking for Software Engineers to join our rapidly growing team in Chantilly this role you will be responsible for implementation of flight software ground test software ground station software at both embedded and application levels. The engineering team as a whole must span the capabilities of deeply embedded software design implementation and debugging including data protocols RF communication machine learning computer vision and implementing control algorithms in a computationally-restricted environment; host side software for user interfaces equipment interfaces machine-to-machine communication data analysis display compression and extraction to human-useable forms; and interfacing with existing Command and Control software and databases to integrate the spacecraft systems in a simple fashion. The embedded tasking will also include writing code to operate at the intersection of hardware FPGA and software.
