Are you looking for an innovative and consolidated place for your professional development?

GMV is an experienced technology group and we are looking for a highly motivated junior AEROSPACE ENGINEER, or equivalent academic qualification, to work with the team for its activities in the areas of Space Surveillance and Tracking (SST) and Space Traffic Management (STM).

If you want to know more about us go to GMV website.

WHAT CHALLENGE WILL YOU BE TAKING ON?

We are looking for engineers who bring new ideas, new ways of working, and above all, passion for the challenges of the space sector.

SST and STM are becoming more and more relevant topics in the space sector due to the need to manage the traffic of the population of objects orbiting the Earth, both space debris and operational satellites, which is growing rapidly nowadays and is expected to increase even more dramatically due to the launch of mega-constellations and CubeSats.

Your roles will include R&D tasks, software development, engineering and analysis activities relating to Space Surveillance and Tracking (SST) and Space Traffic Management (STM). As an engineer, you will work on specific projects related to SST and STM with opportunities to switch team, location and project as GMV grows and evolves.

Previous work experience is not necessary, but it will be valued.

WHAT DO WE NEED IN OUR TEAM?

The successful candidate will be integrated in GMV's SST and STM multidisciplinary team located across several countries, with several projects currently on-going. In particular, the successful candidate will work within the Portuguese team taking care of SST/STM activities for customers like the European Space Agency and national administrations in Portugal such as the Agência Espacial Portuguesa.

He/she will work for the operations and development of SST systems and the execution of R&D studies. The concrete tasks to be performed by the successful candidate focus on engineering and software development activities around orbit determination, object characterization, attitude estimation, collision risk estimation, sensor data analysis, manoeuvre optimization, space sustainability, etc. Artificial Intelligence algorithms are more and more often being applied to some of the previous topics. Proven experience in all those fields is an asset for the candidates.

Require knowledge for this role include:

• Orbital mechanics
• Space Surveillance and Tracking (SST) and Space Traffic Management (STM) related concepts
• Basic software programming knowledge
