Avionics AOCS / GNC Engineer (m/f/d)
In today's dynamic environment of technological change, intelligent IT, software and system solutions are of central importance – in complex, safety-critical and regulated technology fields such as automotive, defence and aerospace. We combine sound expertise in avionics, system integration, verification and qualification as well as in the test of complex safety-critical systems. This creates reliable, certifiable solutions for civilian and military helicopter programs, which focus on technical precision, structured processes and highest quality standards. In this role, you analyze and evaluate the AOCS/GNC performance of satellite missions and investigate the behaviour of spacecraft with regard to orbit and location. You model and simulate spacecraft dynamics, analyze their impact on pointing, geolocation and geo orientation performance, and evaluate different guidance and correction concepts. In addition, you develop simulation and analysis tools and support the definition of technical requirements and performance criteria. Become part of our team – in an internal and indefinite setting as Avionics AOCS / GNC Engineer (m/w/x) with the following tasks at the Friedrichshafen site:
