* Acting as satellite chief engineer, lead the engineering team in the design, development, and testing of satellite systems, ensuring adherence to project requirements and industry standards.
* Establish constellation concepts responding to customer requirements and needs, deriving from the constellation concept the constellation system, satellite, platform and payload requirements.
* Establish Concepts of Operations meeting stakeholders expectations.
* Define the overall development schedule of satellite systems, with a focus on technology maturation processes, establishing and maintaining internal and external dependencies.
* Drive the adaptation of existing satellite product lines to ensure satisfying customer requirements while enabling mid-scale industrialization of the satellite concept.
* Define the satellite product breakdown structure, and identify industrial partners for its development.
* Maintain the overall engineering schedule for the satellite system, aligned with the development logic.
* Remain accountable for the OTOQOC execution of engineering activities in the satellite system development and implementation.
* Establish end-to-end performance budgets, ensuring flow-down of performance requirements to platform, payload, subsystems and equipment. Background in optical performance and/or AOCS/pointing performance are desired.
* Maintain end-to-end performance budgets, including the bottom-up verification process.
* Drive the verification and validation activities throughout the satellite lifecycle, from initial concept to on-orbit operation.
* Lead / Contribute to the execution of program milestones and reviews.
* Bachelor's degree in Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field.
* Strong background in optical performance and/or AOCS/pointing performance, and associated budgeting
* Deep knowledge of the processes and methods of space systems development, verification and validation, including industrial implications
* Experience in developing and executing functional validation tests on platform and spacecraft level
* Excellent leadership and communication skills, with the ability to effectively coordinate and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams.
