Senior Software Engineer, Simulation

Job description

About the role Simulation is a core piece of how Muon gets things done. We have a simulation ecosystem that’s used for systems engineering, GNC (Guidance, Navigation and Control) development, operations planning, ground system planning, spacecraft scheduling, model fitting, flight software testing, and hardware testing. The same power model used when proposing a vehicle design to a customer is what we’ll use when running hardware-in-the-loop on nightlies of flight software once we have the real hardware in house, and it’s the same system the automated scheduler will use when deciding if a schedule is power-positive. Helping drive the development of a system this flexible is a challenge with a lot of leverage. Responsibilities: - Enable simulation as a key component in the planning, development, production, and scaling of the hardware and software components of running spacecraft - Develop high fidelity simulation of spacecraft hardware and software and how they interact with the physical environment - Build cloud-capable simulation services to simulate a broad range of scenarios - Support the integration of simulation in other systems: software-in-the-loop, hardware-in-the-loop, op...
