Job description
Senior Thermal Engineer - REMOTE
I'm partnering with a rapidly growing space organization developing and operating a cutting-edge space-based communications constellation , and we're looking for an experienced Senior Thermal Engineer to join the team.
This is a particularly interesting opportunity for a thermal engineer who wants to go beyond traditional design and analysis and work directly with spacecraft operating on orbit .
You'll play a key role in ensuring the thermal health and performance of spacecraft throughout their operational life, working closely with Flight Operations, Software, Systems and Thermal Engineering teams .
What you'll be working on:
Leading thermal support for on-orbit spacecraft operations
Monitoring and analysing spacecraft thermal telemetry
Defining thermal FDIR limits and automated responses
Troubleshooting and resolving on-orbit thermal anomalies
Supporting spacecraft CONOPS across different mission phases
Performing thermal modelling and analysis using tools such as Thermal Desktop
Supporting spacecraft and subsystem-level thermal testing
Improving thermal monitoring, operational processes and flight strategies
Working directly across Thermal, Flight Operations and Software teams
What we’re looking for:
5+ years of spacecraft thermal engineering experience
Strong thermal modelling and analysis background
Experience with Thermal Desktop or similar tools
Understanding of spacecraft thermal hardware, testing and operations
Ability to independently investigate and solve complex thermal problems
Exposure to Python, MATLAB or similar would be beneficial
Experience supporting flight hardware or on-orbit spacecraft is highly desirable
This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to work much closer to the operational side of spacecraft engineering , supporting real flight systems and solving problems that directly impact missions in orbit.
