About the role

  • Senior Systems Engineer leading engineering execution across multiple satellite programs at Kepler Communications. Contributing to critical subsystems, system-level work packages, and technical deliverables.

Responsibilities

  • Support system-level engineering for spacecraft, payloads, mission operations, and ground segment interfaces under the guidance of senior systems engineers
  • Contribute to requirements development, flow-down, traceability, interface control, verification planning, and evidence tracking for assigned systems or work packages
  • Support payload integration by helping define interfaces, operational constraints, data flows, calibration needs, verification approach, and system-level impacts
  • Perform assigned mission and system analyses, including coverage, access, link, payload performance, operational constraints, and trade study support
  • Develop and maintain technical budgets and analysis products, including power, mass, link, reliability, availability, payload accommodation, and mission performance summaries
  • Coordinate with subsystem teams across payload, RF, avionics, software, mechanical, thermal, ADCS/GNC, ground systems, and mission operations to support integration and resolve interface questions
  • Maintain key engineering documentation, including requirements, ICDs, VCDs, technical budgets, analysis reports, CONOPS inputs, review packages, and decision records
  • Support verification, integration, test, commissioning, and operational readiness activities by preparing technical inputs, tracking evidence, and supporting closure of assigned requirements
  • Support troubleshooting, anomaly investigation, and root cause analysis using test results, telemetry, data products, and interface performance information
  • Participate in technical discussions with internal teams, suppliers, customers, and external stakeholders, with support from senior engineers as required
  • Contribute to proposals, feasibility studies, early mission concepts, and new business initiatives by preparing analysis inputs, assumptions, and supporting documentation
  • Apply systems engineering best practices with increasing autonomy and use analysis tools, scripting, automation, and AI-enabled tools to improve engineering efficiency.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Systems Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, Engineering Science, or a related technical field
  • 4+ years of experience in systems engineering, spacecraft development, mission analysis, payload engineering, satellite operations, or a related technical role
  • Strong understanding of spacecraft systems, payload integration, mission design fundamentals, system interfaces, and the engineering lifecycle
  • Experience supporting requirements development, interface definition, verification planning, technical documentation, or system-level engineering activities
  • Experience performing technical analysis using tools such as Python, MATLAB, STK, or equivalent engineering analysis tools
  • Familiarity with mission analysis topics such as orbital mechanics, access analysis, coverage analysis, link analysis, pointing constraints, payload operations, or mission planning
  • Ability to support development and maintenance of technical budgets, including mass, power, link, reliability, availability, or payload performance budgets
  • Experience working with cross-functional engineering teams to coordinate technical inputs, resolve interface questions, and support integration of subsystem-level designs
  • Ability to develop clear engineering documentation, including requirements, ICDs, verification matrices, analysis reports, design notes, CONOPS inputs, and review materials
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to identify risks, evaluate trade-offs, and communicate findings clearly
  • Ability to work independently on defined technical tasks while regularly coordinating with senior engineers, subsystem leads, and program stakeholders
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to present technical findings to internal engineering teams
  • Familiarity with systems engineering standards, spacecraft development practices, or industry guidance such as NASA, ESA/ECSS, INCOSE, or equivalent internal standards
  • Demonstrated willingness and ability to leverage AI-assisted engineering and development tools to improve productivity, design quality, and innovation while adapting to evolving technologies and best practices
