Full job description

Mission Analysis Engineer (Senior) • Millennium Space Systems

Millennium Space Systems, a part of Boeing Defense, Space and Security (BDS), is a fast, agile small satellite company focused on national security space. Our missions have direct impact to global security, like missile warning and Earth observation.

Our team is curious, bold and innovative. We take risks, innovate and explore new techniques and technologies. We influence change because we challenge the status quo.

And when we watch our satellites launch, we know each one of us made it happen.

The Mission Analysis Engineering team is focused on (a) design and development of Concepts of Operations (CONOPS) and Design Reference Missions (DRMs) from key customer requirements; (b) modeling and simulation of satellites, constellations, and system-of-systems; and (c) design and integration of mission data processing algorithms, such as EO/IR image processing or inertial tracking.

They are key stakeholders in the design and validation of mission CONOPS and Design Reference Missions (DRM) and are leaders in comprehensive end-to-end software integration, validation, and testing. The team owns the development and validation of the satellite/constellation mission, as well as the predicted technical performance metrics (TPMs) for the program.

They are chief architects and implementers of mission data processing algorithms, ensuring mission level objectives are met.

As a Mission Analysis Engineer on the Mission Analysis Engineering Team, you will be the Responsible Engineering Authority (REA) for all modeling, simulation, and analysis for a program, study, or proposal. Mission Analysis Engineers don't just execute on ideas - they innovate creative solutions and novel designs to improve our products and solidify Millennium as an industry leader.

You will develop methods to simulate mission scenarios and assess end-to-end constellation capabilities; design and deploy image processing, inertial tracking, state estimation, and optimal control algorithms for sensor systems; and provide tools and modeling platforms for validating system performance during on-orbit mission operations.

You will work shoulder-to-shoulder with technical and program leadership to ensure that high-quality work products are delivered on time and that the proposed mission solution meets the customer need.

This position's internal job code is 3D Guidance, Nav & Controls Engr. Our team is currently hiring for Levels 5-6.

  • Own the Electro-Optical/Infrared (EO/IR) image processing algorithms chain, from photon to Warfighter
  • Create models for space vehicle payloads to use in system trades and performance predictions
  • Develop novel algorithms, models, and data processing schemes for MW/MT, RPO, and SDA systems
  • Architect the Concepts of Operation (CONOPS)/Design Reference Mission (DRM) and their associated simulations
  • Collaborate with software and firmware teams to develop platforms for simulation deployment (eg. software/hardware-in-the-loop)
  • Bachelor's degree and 14 or more years' related work experience or an equivalent combination of technical education and experience
  • 7 or more years' experience in modeling and simulation of complex aerospace systems using common tools such as Matlab/Simulink, Python, or C++
  • This position requires the ability to obtain a U.S. Security Clearance for which the U.S. Government requires U.S. Citizenship. An interim and/or final U.S. Top Secret Clearance Post-Start is required.
  • Level 6: Bachelor's degree and 20 or more years' related work experience or an equivalent combination of technical education and experience
  • 9 or more years’ experience in satellite design and/or operation
  • Experience with EO/IR optical systems analysis and image processing algorithms
  • Experience with government furnished image models like ASSET, PRA Toolkit, or AFSIM
  • Experience with orbital mechanics and kinematic state estimation
  • Experience with satellite space-to-space communication networks
  • Experience with RPO or NMC orbits and associated maneuver planning
  • Technical leadership experience, including requirements V&V, delegation and management of technical tasks, responsible engineering authority (REA) experience, and cost account management (CAM) experience.
