Job Summary
In this role, you will develop the software infrastructure for satellite simulation and emulation, create basic simulators for testing, and integrate them into CI pipelines and testing environments.
Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- Join the Systems Integration and Verification (SIV) team to develop the software infrastructure that lets us simulate and emulate our satellites and their environments on both our Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) and Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) testbeds.
- You will work closely with FSW (Flight Software), AOCS (Attitude and Orbit Control Systems), AIT (Assembly, Integration and Test), and other engineering teams to understand our missions and to design simulation infrastructure tailored to specific mission needs.
- Investigate mission- and system-level needs and derive requirements for the simulation environment.
- Design and implement basic interface simulators for simple aliveness and integration tests.
- Develop full functional simulators or emulators for key subsystems to support end-to-end testing.
- Evaluate and integrate realistic environment simulation solutions and build the infrastructure to use them in our SIL and HIL setups.
- Integrate simulations with our continuous integration (CI) pipelines and manual test campaigns, ensuring they are reliable, reproducible and easy for other teams to use.
