Responsibilities
You will own the development of flight simulation, navigation, guidance, and control algorithms for an exo-atmospheric interceptor. This involves designing and tuning control systems, managing error budgets, and translating performance analysis into vehicle requirements.
Requirements
Candidates must have 10+ years of experience in GNC systems for high-performance aerospace applications and hold a degree in Aerospace, Control Engineering, or Applied Mathematics. Strong proficiency in MATLAB, Simulink, or Python is required, along with a deep understanding of the complete GNC loop.
Full job description
Imagine this, you own the guidance, navigation, and control behind an exo-atmospheric interceptor, including the final seconds where precision determines whether the engagement succeeds.
Bliksem Exo is a four-nation European consortium developing an anti-ballistic missile system at operational pace. Destinus is the programme prime and responsible for the exo-atmospheric interceptor, engineered for affordability and production at scale.
In this role, you will own the flight simulation, navigation, guidance, and control algorithms that take the interceptor from flight to terminal engagement. You will work hands-on with the models and analysis, translating performance results directly into vehicle requirements and engineering decisions.
At Destinus, we are revolutionizing the defense industry with cutting-edge Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Our innovative technologies are designed to meet the unique demands of modern defense operations, delivering unparalleled speed, precision, and cost effectiveness. Destinus partners with government agencies and defense organizations worldwide to provide advanced solutions for mission-critical operations, enabling a new era of efficiency and technological superiority. Join us in shaping the future of defense with groundbreaking aerospace innovations.
What You'll Do
Build and own the six-degree-of-freedom flight simulation used as the reference model for vehicle performance and analysis
Develop navigation and estimation throughout the flight, manage the error budget through handover, and develop terminal guidance for the final engagement
Own the terminal miss budget, quantifying how sensing noise, timing, disturbances, and other uncertainties affect end-to-end accuracy
Design and tune control algorithms across the phases of flight, assessing stability and robustness throughout the operating envelope
Run analysis and simulation campaigns across nominal and stressing conditions, translating findings into vehicle and subsystem requirements
Work closely with the wider engineering team to integrate GNC performance into the overall interceptor design
Who You Are
You are comfortable owning complex GNC problems from mathematical models through implementation and validation
You think in terms of complete system performance rather than isolated algorithms
You challenge models, assumptions, and results until you understand what drives performance
You thrive in a small technical team where ownership, speed, and engineering judgement matter
BSc, MSc, or PhD in Aerospace Engineering, Control Engineering, Applied Mathematics, or a related field
10+ years of GNC experience on missiles, interceptors, spacecraft, launch vehicles, or comparable high-performance systems
Strong expertise in at least two areas across guidance, navigation and estimation, and control, with solid understanding across the complete GNC loop
Experience developing and implementing flight-proven systems for hypersonic and/or space applications, including qualified hardware and software
Strong MATLAB, Simulink and/or Python skills
Nice to have: Experience taking GNC systems through hardware-in-the-loop testing and/or flight testing
Destinus builds Europe’s capacity to strike, defend, and replenish at scale.
We design and manufacture cruise missiles, guided rockets, ballistic systems, and interceptors. Behind them sits a vertically integrated base of propulsion, warheads, autonomy, and critical manufacturing.
Destinus turns European engineering into sovereign military capability. Produced across Europe. Owned in Europe. Made for Europe.
