Description

As a Modeling and Simulation Engineer at Anduril, you will design mission trajectories, build models, and develop simulations to solve critical space mission challenges. You'll work closely with systems engineering, GNC, and other teams to deliver physics-level analysis for constellation design and spacecraft payloads, directly supporting U.S. defense capabilities.

Requirements

  • Active U.S. Secret security clearance
  • Space Mission M&S experience (constellation design, trajectory design, physics-level modeling)
  • Spacecraft Payload M&S experience (trade-space analyses for propulsion, power, thermal, payloads like RADAR, SATCOM, EO/IR)
  • Strong background in orbital mechanics and space environment
  • Proficiency with physics/math scripting (MATLAB, Simulink, Python+numpy, scipy)

Responsibilities

  • Develop model-driven analysis and models for space missions
  • Design physics-level models for spacecraft systems and payloads
  • Design mission and constellation trajectories
  • Convey value through analysis to guide engineering and stakeholders
  • Collaborate with systems engineering, GNC, and mission operations teams
