Kepler is on an audacious mission to deliver Internet connectivity to space creating the infrastructure to support the rapidly increasing data needs of the space economy. With 23 satellites launched to date and our optical constellation on the horizon our ambition is to improve access to spacegenerated data whether in LEO MEO GEO or beyond! Kepler is hard at work innovating and continuing to grow and expand our most important asset the Team!
Kepler is looking for a dynamic systems designer who enjoys technical challenges in a fastpaced environment applies sound judgement in successful planning and meets commitments and communicates effectively with all stakeholders.
As a Systems Designer at Kepler you will be responsible for creating and implementing technical solutions across the spacecraft platform leading engineering trades and technical budgets and collaborating with crossfunctional teams to develop innovative space products.
Responsibilities:
Create and use modelbased approaches to scope technical solutions across the spacecraft platform and space products.
Lead and conduct engineering trades and technical budgets
Conduct coverage and reliability analysis and flow the results into the various hardware and software designs required for the system.
Deep dive in technical niches to support or lead new product designs.
Work closely with other crossfunctional engineering teams including RF mechanical software and FPGA to develop full product solutions.
Work closely with teams of subject matter experts from diverse fields to iterate on and for the final spacecraft.
Develop and manage key program documentation and verification structures (requirements ICDs ConOps).
Troubleshoot system behavior anomalies determine root cause analysis and provide technical guidance to steer the team towards resolution.
Assist in system roadmapping and conduct feasibility studies and contribute to proposals for other business units.
Support prototyping production assembly integration and testing of systems and subsystems.
Requirements:
Bachelors degree in a relevant field (electrical mechanical aerospace engineering).
5 years of relevant experience within a systems engineering environment.
Strong understanding of aerospace systems and engineering fundamentals.
Handson environmental testing (vibration thermal shock or thermal vacuum) or electromagnetic interference (EMI) testing experience.
Ability to distil complex problems to fundamentals to solve with analysis similarity or creativity.
Ability to read and decipher highly technical data and conduct tradeoffs for competing requirements.
Experience with qualification and acceptance testing of new designs.
Experience creating or using models and/or simulation software.
Bonus Points:
Strong understanding of the space environment and orbit mechanics.
Masters degree in relevant field (electrical mechanical industrial aerospace engineering) or strong academic/professional project experience.
Solid understanding of the product development lifecycle process including analysis and design development tools and technologies release and version control contemporary testing methodologies and deployment management.
Experience taking a product from the concept phase through to prototyping launch and operations.
Experience developing in C/C or Python.
A good foundation in spacecraft attitude dynamics and control algorithms with emphasis on practical application of knowledge.
Experience with mission and orbit modelling and simulation.
Experience developing CAD for complex assemblies.
