Implement and validate GN&C flight software (MATLAB/Simulink models and C/C++ prototypes) and integrate with testbeds and avionics.
→
Apply astrodynamics and flight mechanics to mission design, novel orbit concepts, and trajectory optimization.
→
Apply aerodynamics, atmospheric flight mechanics, and controls knowledge to support the design of re-entry guidance, navigation, and flight control functions.
→
Develop powered and unpowered guidance laws and autonomy tools for on‑orbit and atmospheric operations.
→
Support troubleshooting of operational anomalies, functional tests, and service incidents.
→
Produce concepts of operations, simulation artifacts, and test procedures to enable rapid iteration from prototype to flight test.
→
Collaborate with cross‑functional teams (systems engineering, avionics, test, and business development) and communicate technical tradeoffs to stakeholders.
