System Performance Engineer (m/f/d)

As part of the Satellite Systems Engineering department, the System Performance team is responsible for controlling the system performance of our spacecraft from study phases until commissioning in-orbit. As part of our team, you will work in an inter-disciplinary environment in which you can contribute to the overall system architecture of our space missions, coordinate design and development activities related to space system performance and verify the performance requirements by analyses and tests.

Your Tasks: In this position, you will work in collaboration with architects and subsystem engineers on tasks like: Modelling of the Satellite’s imaging geometry and analysis of the geometric performances Pointing performance engineering on subjects like microvibration, thermo-elastic deformation and others. Implementation of the performance calibration and development of the associated software tools.

Performance testing at various levels (Satellite, Platform, Units) including the test evaluation. Algorithm development for data processing and simulation focused on satellite level aspects such as geometry. Implementation and Maintenance of the Satellite Characterization and Calibration Database used for the on-ground data processing
