About this role

GNC Engineer - Avionics Glasgow, Scotland, United Kingdom As a GNC/AOCS Engineer - Avionics at Spire, you will operate as part of a technical team who maintains responsibility across the full lifecycle of the Spire GNC product and its subcomponents. The GNC team interfaces directly with many engineering groups to conduct R&D, design, manufacturing, and operations activities, ultimately ensuring all current and future spacecraft systems satisfy their mission. Ideal candidates will embrace the commercialization of nanosatellite systems and adapt to low-cost, fast-paced systems design, development, and implementation methodologies that set Spire apart from our competition. In this fast-paced environment, the design to launch cycle is measured in weeks and months, not years! What You'll Do: Design, evaluate, select, qualify and implement flight sensors, including magnetometers, sun sensors, inertial measurement devices, Earth sensors, and/or star trackers. Design, evaluate, select, qualify and implement flight actuators, including magnetic torque elements, reaction wheels, and propulsion systems. Design, implement and maintain simulation models for GNC subcomponents in our 6-DOF simulation environment. Technical ownership of current and future GNC avionics peripherals, supporting troubleshooting, design and updates to improve reliability and performance. Working closely with cross-functional teams, including hardware, software, and systems engineers, to integrate avionics solutions into the larger platform. Develop component qualification and acceptance processes and be hands-on in laboratory and manufacturing environments. Key Skills: Experience with flight sensors for spacecraft attitude determination/estimation. Experience with actuators, including actuator sizing, modelling, design and integration. A solid foundation in spacecraft attitude dynamics and control algorithms, with emphasis
