Calibration Software Engineer, Geometry

Job description

About the role Muon Space is building a family of infrared imaging missions designed for global wildfire detection and monitoring, weather and cloud characterization, space-based environmental monitoring, and more. Muon's IR Data Products team builds the analytics system that processes the data from our spacecraft's custom multispectral imaging instruments into data products and analytics for diverse end-user stakeholders from these missions. We are seeking a Calibration Software Engineer, Geometry, to join the team. In this role, the candidate will focus initially on geometric calibration and geospatial data processing of the unique multi-spectral infrared data from the FireSat camera. The candidate will work within our team to design and implement camera geometry models, geolocation calibration, and advanced geospatial processing algorithms — including bundle adjustment, orthorectification, and atmospheric corrections — that are foundational to the quality and accuracy of FireSat data products. The candidate will be responsible for completing the on-orbit geometric calibration of new FireSat satellites during the commissioning phase, and will be expected to improve on the current...
