Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Design, analyze, and tune spacecraft attitude and position control loops using time and frequency domain techniques. Develop simulation models for sensors, actuators, and system dynamics to support mission concept development and performance assessments.
Requires an active U.S. Government DoD Top-Secret security clearance and a bachelor's degree with 5 years of relevant engineering experience. Proficiency in MATLAB/Simulink and C/C++ is essential for GNC subsystem design and analysis.
Expand your horizons, advance your career, and contribute to a secure future for generations. Northrop Grumman’s Space Sector invites you to bring your pioneering spirit to our collaborative teams. As a Guidance Navigation Control (GNC) Engineer - level 3 supporting our Space team, this role can be based at either our Dulles, VA or Gilbert, AZ locations. On our team, you’ll be a linchpin in missions of paramount importance, defining the art of the possible from day one.
This role is 100% onsite and cannot accommodate telecommute work.
This position description does not represent a current opening but may be used to identify candidates with skills and experience for positions within Northrop Grumman that frequently become available. Candidates who express an interest may be considered for future positions at Northrop Grumman.
The GNC team designs, builds, and tests spacecraft subsystems for a mix of DoD, NASA, and commercial customers. We are leaders in innovative solutions to the rapidly growing/evolving fields of space based autonomous rendezvous and docking and rapid design/production of small satellites.
Job Responsibilities
In this role you will:
Design, analyze, and tune spacecraft attitude and position control loops using time and frequency domain techniques
Design and analyze relative guidance solutions for Rendezvous and Proximity Operations (RPO)
Design, analyze, and tune sequential filters (e.g. Kalman filters) for attitude determination and relative navigation
Analyze and test the spacecraft GNC subsystem performance using simulations and other analytic tools
Perform analysis to support early design phase concept development including actuator sizing and placement, sensor selection and placement, attitude and position guidance, rendezvous, proximity operations and docking analyses, and predicted performance assessments
Develop simulation models for sensors (e.g. star tracker, rate gyro, accelerometer, GPS, magnetometer, sun sensors), actuators (e.g. reaction wheel, torque bar, thruster, CMG), system dynamics (e.g. rigid body, multi-body, orbit mechanics, flexible models, propellant slosh), and the space environment (e.g. atmospheric, solar radiation pressure, third-body gravity, geopotential)
Communication is a key element of your role and all GNC engineers are expected to:
Apply engineering principles, industry standards, company process, and knowledge of vehicle dynamics, aerodynamics, propulsion, classical/modern control, and estimation theory to perform tasks to advanced program/project goals
Document designs, analysis, and test results and create presentation materials
Present designs, analysis, and test results to internal and external customers
Work well within small- to medium-sized groups
This role is 100% onsite and cannot accommodate telecommute work.

Preferred Qualifications:
Current/Active TS with SCI
MS or PhD in engineering, physics, or math
Experience with version control tools such as SVN or Git
Experience implementing spacecraft GNC algorithms on embedded systems
Strong technical fundamentals in the areas of spacecraft attitude and orbit dynamics, navigation filtering and/or control systems design
Experience with on-orbit space vehicle operations, commanding, debugging, and use of flight telemetry to track performance metrics
Experience with Rendezvous and Proximity Operations (RPO) algorithms, practices and planning strategies
Experience with performing spacecraft GNC design, analysis, Hardware (HW) and Integration & Test (I&T), or flight operations.
Excellent analytical and problem-solving abilities
Previous/current membership or leadership roles in professional groups, clubs, or extracurricular activities are desired
