About the role

Wanna join the adventure?
 
Orbitworks' mission is to make space simple for organizations that want to deploy physical and virtual missions to space. Building on Loft Orbital's heritage, Orbitworks will be the first commercial firm in the United Arab Emirates to mass-manufacture satellites.

As a Senior Satellite Systems Engineer at Orbitworks, you will work as a senior engineer for one or several satellite missions simultaneously, each one flying a single/multi-payload configuration. You will be a technical reference for these missions, working closely with the mission manager and all the Orbitworks and Loft teams: product development teams, flight and ground software, AIT, and operations.
 
Using flight-proven satellite buses and Loft-designed payload hub infrastructure, you will lead the development activities of the missions you are in charge of.
