About The Role

Join Turion Space as a Mission Systems Engineer, where you'll play a crucial role in designing and building satellites and mechanisms for space missions. As a Model Based Systems Engineer (MBSE), you'll drive the development and integration of critical space missions, working on all phases of a satellite's product lifecycle. You'll develop and maintain SysML models, define ground segment architecture, evaluate and track risks, and interface with government customers and contractors. This position offers equity, comprehensive health insurance, professional development opportunities, a 401(k) plan, generous paid time off, and team-building activities.

  • Conduire le développement et l'intégration de missions spatiales critiques en utilisant des outils et des processus MBSE.
  • Développer et maintenir des modèles SysML pour les systèmes spatiaux, en capturant les objectifs de mission, les fonctions du système et les architectures physiques.
  • Assurer la traçabilité du modèle depuis les concepts de mission jusqu'aux exigences du système, aux décisions de conception et aux méthodes de vérification.
  • Experience with requirements management and bidirectional traceability between requirements and system models
  • Must be able to obtain a Secret and/or a TS/SCI clearance
  • Bachelor's degree in Systems Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a closely related technical discipline
  • Familiarity with ground segment architecture and components
  • Working knowledge of systems engineering processes and standards, including NASA SE Handbook, INCOSE SE Handbook, or MIL-STD-499
  • Familiarity with space mission architectures including satellite or spacecraft subsystems (ACS, power, C&DH, RF communications, propulsion)
  • Capable of identifying and solving complex problems with little to no supervision or direction
  • Demonstrated hands-on experience developing SysML models using tools such as Cameo Systems Modeler (MagicDraw), Rhapsody, Sparx Enterprise Architect, or equivalent
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present complex technical concepts to diverse audiences including non-modelers
  • Previous experience across the entire life-cycle of a space mission, including gathering requirements, design, integration, testing, risk management, commissioning, and operating the space vehicle
  • Hands-on experience with spacecraft integration, flatsat testing, or mission operations
  • Experience architecting, designing and modeling ground segments
  • Experience integrating MBSE models with simulation, analysis, or digital twin environments (e.g., AFSIM, STK, MATLAB/Simulink, or model-based verification frameworks)
  • Familiarity with Digital Engineering (DE) principles and initiatives including DoD Digital Engineering Strategy and NASA Digital Transformation efforts
  • A love for small fast-paced teams and fast-moving organizations
  • Experience with agile or iterative development methodologies applied to space systems programs
  • 7+ years of experience in systems engineering on space, defense, or other complex engineered systems.
