Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Design and maintain the hardware-out-of-the-loop (HOOTL) simulator to verify GNC claims and flight software. Develop high-fidelity physics models for electromagnetic docking and extend the framework to handle vehicle-level dynamics for assembled spacecraft.
Requires a Bachelor's degree in an engineering or physics discipline and proficiency in C++ and Python. Preferred candidates have experience with 6DOF simulations, real-time embedded systems, and GNC concepts.
Today, everything we send to space is constrained by what fits inside a rocket fairing. That's a fundamental bottleneck to building more capable spacecraft. Rendezvous Robotics is solving this problem with electromagnetic self-assembling tiles: modular spacecraft components that rendezvous, dock, and latch to assemble bigger and more powerful spacecraft than anything that can be folded to fit into a rocket.
We're a small team based in Golden, Colorado, executing on a clear path from flight demonstration to our first operational systems. Our work spans hardware, software, and systems engineering. We are looking for the best people in the world who want to build the next generation of advanced spacecraft.
As a GNC Engineer, Simulation (Swarm/Vehicle), you will be responsible for the complete lifecycle of the hardware-out-of-the-loop (HOOTL) simulator that every GNC claim is verified against. You will design and build the HOOTL framework that runs the actual flight software — partitioned exactly as it runs on the tile's distributed, multi-rate compute — against a high-fidelity physics world, prove it through correlation and verification, and bring it into reality as the gate the entire subsystem depends on. This is an opportunity to apply expertise in dynamics simulation and real-time software to both model the physics of electromagnetic docking and run the Monte Carlo and hardware-in-the-loop campaigns that prove the control and navigation algorithms — working collaboratively across GNC, embedded software, and hardware teams to guarantee that a result in simulation transfers to flight, ultimately defining the verification standard and modeling requirements for future vehicles. You will also extend the framework to the assembled spacecraft — the vehicle-level dynamics, the changing inertia of a reconfiguring structure, and the absolute space environment. This is the same simulation, grown to carry the monolithic vehicle the tiles become once docked and latched.
Associate GNC Engineer: $90,000.00 - $135,000.00
GNC Engineer: $135,000.00 - $165,000.00
Your actual level and base salary will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: job-related knowledge and skills, education, and experience. In addition to the base salary, you may also be eligible for long-term incentives in the form of stock options. You will receive access to comprehensive medical, vision, and dental coverage, short- and long-term disability insurance, life insurance, and paid parental leave. You may also accrue 3 weeks of paid vacation and will be eligible for 10 or more paid holidays per year.
To conform to U.S. Government export regulations, applicant must be a (i) U.S. citizen or national, (ii) U.S. lawful, permanent resident (aka green card holder), (iii) Refugee under 8 U.S.C. § 1157, or (iv) Asylee under 8 U.S.C. § 1158, or be eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
