    Project Kuiper is an initiative to increase global broadband access through a constellation of 3,236 satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO). Its mission is to bring fast, affordable broadband to unserved and underserved communities around the world. Project Kuiper will help close the digital divide by delivering fast, affordable broadband to a wide range of customers, including consumers, businesses, government agencies, and other organizations operating in places without reliable connectivity. Key job responsibilities This position is part of the Satellite Attitude Determination and Control team. You will design and analyze the control system and algorithms, support development of our flight hardware and software, help integrate the satellite in our labs, participate in flight operations, and see a constellation of satellites flow through the production line in the building next door. You will design and analyze algorithms for estimation, flight control, and precise pointing using linear methods and simulation. Along with that will be plenty of work developing and applying models and simulations, with various levels of fidelity, of the satellite and our constellation. The labs in our building provide for component level environmental testing, functional and performance checkout, subsystem integration, and satellite integration up to Day in the Life testing and mission rehearsal. We are excited to get into space, so you can look forward to seeing your designs launch and fly soon! A day in the life This is an opportunity to play a significant role in the design of an entirely new satellite system with challenging performance requirements. The large, integrated constellation brings opportunities for advanced capabilities that need investigation and development.
