Space Operation Support Engineer


ThrustMe is a fast-growing industrial engineering startup in the space sector, founded in 2017. We are experts in satellite space propulsion, pioneering the field of streamlined in-orbit propulsion for the rising satellite constellation paradigm. We help our clients in the US, Europe, and Asia, to manoeuvre satellites in space while meeting ambitious timelines and cost-capped budgets. The company made history in 2019 and 2020 with the world's first in-orbit demonstrations of iodine-fuelled electric propulsion systems, bringing the technologies that will revolutionize the space industry.


As a Space Operations Engineer at ThrustMe, your job is to help our customers get the most out of our propulsion system aboard their spacecraft. You are the detective reconstructing what is going on in space from telemetry and knowledge of the system, doing everything necessary to solve the case – be it improving performance or resolving in-orbit problems. You interface with satellite operators, but also with all the experts on the ground. The job ranges from working with telemetry directly from space, participating in and assisting with ground-based propulsion system tests in our laboratory facilities, to working on the software to manage and automating the telemetry analysis. The latter includes the deriving of statistical information from the telemetry. Furthermore, through your insight into the real-world performance of the system, you will also contribute to existing and new products at ThrustMe.


Main tasks and responsibilities:

  • Maintaining and developing our space telemetry data post-processing and analysis tools.
  • Investigating space telemetry, understanding any potential issues, proposing, and implementing solution on space hardware.
  • Integrating inputs from a broad range of sources (space data, ground experiments, theory, simulation, etc.) to improve the algorithms and models running the propulsion systems.
  • Support ongoing missions and assist with the satellite assembly and integration process, launch, commissioning, operation, and de-orbiting.
  • Writing reports and technical documentation, both for internal and external use.
  • Supporting propulsion system experiments both in space and on the ground.
  • Collaborating with engineers and physicists in the development and industrialization of ground-breaking products.
  • Conducting performance analysis and generating operational recommendations.


Required skills and qualifications:

  • Masters in embedded software, aerospace engineering, propulsion, physics, or similar.
  • Solid understanding of complex embedded systems, ideally with knowledge of fundamental engineering and space propulsion-related subjects.
  • Good data processing, data analytics, and modelling foundation (Python or similar). SQL experience is appreciated.
  • Knowledge/experience in electronics.
  • Knowledge of plasma physics is not expected but is welcome.
  • Ability to work autonomously and proactively.
  • Demonstrable technical writing and reporting skills.
  • Communicate in English fluently.
