Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you’ve come to the right place!

E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system that will fundamentally change the design, economics, manufacturing and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.

We’re intentional, we’re unapologetically curious and we’re 100% committed to innovate space-based communications and deliver actionable intelligence that will expand global economies, protect space and our planet and enhance our overall quality of life.

As a GNC software engineer, you will focus on the development and maintenance of E-Space's Satellite Simulations. You will work with GNC and Embedded Software engineers to implement and test the GNC algorithms in our satellite’s real-time flight software. You will also work on improving the GNC flight-code for optimal performance and robustness to failures. This position will report to the GNC Lead and is an onsite position based in Saratoga, CA.

What you will do:

  • Develop, maintain, and test flight-code in software/hardware in the loop simulations
  • Develop and maintain Monte Carlo Simulations
  • Develop tools for analyzing simulation and hardware data in real-time and in post-processing settings
  • Interface with software engineers to integrate and test controls and estimation software
  • Improve and follow software configuration management and code development and integration processes
  • Interact cross-functionally with other subsystem engineers, providing support as needed
  • Participate, present, and prepare documentation for engineering reviews

What you bring to this role:

  • BS +4 years / MS +2 year in Software, Electrical, Aerospace Engineering, or equivalent field of study
  • Direct, professional experience coding 6DOF simulations and controllers for a real-time embedded application
  • At least 1+ year of professional experience in software development in C/C++ and Matlab/Simulink
  • Experience in object-oriented programming methodology and multi-layer system architectures
  • Knowledge of spacecraft dynamics and orbital mechanics
  • Knowledge of PID, optimal controllers, and state estimation
  • Knowledge of software testing procedures and test case design, including experience designing fault tolerant software
  • Experience with Git and Linux

Bonus points:

  • Hands-on experience building and debugging complex software
  • Experience with spacecraft GNC hardware/software, including design and testing processes.
  • Experience in writing autonomy software for space/aerial/ground vehicles
  • Experience developing visualization and graphics engines
  • Experience with machine learning and artificial intelligence
This is a full time, exempt position, based out of our Saratoga office.  The target base pay for this position is $150,000 - $200,000 annually.  The total compensation packaged will be determined by various factors such as your relevant job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. 
 
We are redefining how satellites are designed, manufactured and used—so we’re looking for candidates with passion, deep knowledge and direct experience on LEO satellite component development, design and in-orbit activities. If that’s your experience – then we’ll be immediately wow-ed.
 
E-Space is not currently able to provide employment sponsorship for candidates who do not hold work authorization for the location of this role.
