Astroscale develops spacecraft and technologies for on-orbit servicing including life-extension, active debris removal, end-of-life services and in-situ space situational awareness. The company builds and operates satellite servicers and demonstration missions, notably the ELSA-d capture demonstrator, to remove or maintain space assets and mitigate orbital debris. Astroscale works with government agencies, commercial satellite operators and international partners to create sustainable space systems, business cases and norms for the responsible use of space.

Export Control Laws:
Unless explicitly notified otherwise, our vacancies are covered by Export Control Laws which require candidates to be from an "Export Safe" Country as deemed by the Japanese Government.
The countries are as follows:
Japan, Germany, Australia, Argentina, Italy, USA, France, Netherlands, UK, Austria, Ireland, Czech, Spain, Greece Canada, New Zealand, Belgium, Bulgaria, Sweden, Switzerland, Norway, Finland, Luxembourg, Portugal, Denmark Hungary and Poland.
- Lead the development team for satellite GNC (Guidance Navigation and Control) systems, design and verification activities.
- Contribute to system level activities, such as: developing mission CONOPS (Concept of Operations), defining FMECA (Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis) and FDIR (Failure Detection, Isolation, and Recovery)
- Detection, Isolation, and Recovery processes and design, system test and verification activities.
- Develop control law and algorithms - analysis, design, implement and validate (simulate) scenarios for RPO (rendezvous and proximity operations) RPO & docking maneuvers.
- Develop GNC hardware architecture, trade-off analysis of hardware towards an overall GNC hardware solution.
- Develop GNC software architecture, implementing algorithms for GNC flight software, towards an overall GNC software solution.
- Support procurement engineers with trade-off and selection of GNC equipment.
- Coach junior level engineers and provide consultation in GNC development team.
- 5+ years of experience as an AOCS or GNC systems engineer involved in the design, implementation and testing of GNC solutions for actual spacecraft missions.
- Experience of algorithm & control law development: use of GNC design and simulation software e.g., MATLAB, implementation of control laws and real world effects (non-linearities, signal noise, tuning), translating algorithms into operational flight software.
- Experience of hardware trade-offs and hardware and software GNC architectural design.
- Comfortable using English in a business environment
- Business level Japanese language capability.
- 10+ years of experience as an AOCS or GNC systems engineer involved in the design, implementation and testing of GNC solutions for actual spacecraft missions.
- Preferable to have experience of implementation of RPO and docking algorithms and solutions.
- Operational experience of on-orbit satellite operations.
- Experience in control law design, beyond classical techniques: non linear design, optimal.
- Knowledge of GNC sensor systems (trade-offs/ procurement, data processing) including cameras, IR and LiDAR.
- Understanding of safety across the GNC design spectrum: passively safe trajectories, safety critical flight software, operator and ground segment interaction (and level of autonomy), abort maneuvers, and collision avoidance maneuvers.
- Knowledge of missions concerning ADR (active debris removal) or RPO mission: such as HTV, ETS-7
