Isar Aerospace

Ottobrunn, Germany

Mission Brief

As part of the Guidance, Navigation, & Control team, you will lead the technical development of the Inertial Navigation system of the launch vehicle. You will be responsible for developing the necessary simulation environments, implementing algorithms and perform validation campaigns. Furthermore, you will work on software used in GNC development.

More specifically, you will:

• Perform Navigation algorithm tuning and improvements based on flight data;
• Design and tune discrete filters based on flight data;
• Be able to perform and setup scripts for Monte Carlo simulation, as well as analyse them;
• Run and automise GNSS testing campaigns in HIL environment;
• Create and own licensing relevant navigation documentation;
• Support flight safety relevant fault analysis.

Qualification Checklist
