Job Description - Senior Thermal Design & Analysis Engineer (SAU SAR Antenna Unit)

Team & Role:

You will be joining the SAR Antenna Unit (SAU) team as a Senior Thermal Design & Analysis Engineer. You will own the complete thermal architecture of the SAR Antenna Unit, ensuring stability, performance, and reliability from concept definition through on -orbit validation.

Responsibilities:

â Own the thermal architecture of the SAR Antenna Unit end -to -end.

â Develop detailed orbital thermal models (steady -state & transient).

â Perform high -fidelity thermal simulations for gradients, distortions, and thermo -elastic effects.

â Conduct coupled thermal -structural analysis for dimensional stability.

â Define and implement thermal control strategies (MLI, coatings, heaters, isolators).

â Establish temperature, distortion, and alignment budgets aligned with RF performance.

â Support deployable antenna design with thermal expansion evaluations.

â Develop and validate Thermal Mathematical Models (TMM) and correlate with TVAC test data.

â Support environmental testing (thermal balance, TVAC, vibration -thermal interaction).

â Collaborate with RF, structural, AIT, and Bus teams for compatibility.

â Generate and present reports for PDR, CDR, TRR, and QR reviews.
â Drive root -cause analysis for thermal anomalies and corrective iterations.
â Mentor junior engineers in thermal modeling and best practices.

Requirements

Must -have Qualifications:

â 3–6 years of hands -on experience in spacecraft or aerospace thermal design & analysis.

â Strong expertise in orbital thermal analysis and spacecraft environments.

â Proficiency in Simcenter 3D (thermal & coupled thermal -structural analysis).

â Deep understanding of thermo -elastic distortion and dimensional stability.

â Strong knowledge of passive & active thermal control techniques.

â Experience correlating thermal models with thermal balance and TVAC test data.

â Solid understanding of aerospace materials and thermal properties (CTE, conductivity, emissivity).

â Ability to translate RF performance constraints into thermal/mechanical design requirements ( efficient

thermal dissipation from IC and RF PCBs, EMI/EMC of the enclosure, etc)

â Strong technical documentation and design review participation.

Good -to -have:

â Experience with radar or high -frequency RF payloads.

â Familiarity with deployable structures.

â Working knowledge of structural FEA workflows in Simcenter 3D (NX Nastran).

â Experience designing thermal aspects of test support equipment.

â Exposure to spacecraft Bus thermal interface design.

â Experience with heater control electronics and sensor placement strategies.

â Background in thermal -optical property characterization.

â Prior flight hardware qualification experience.

â Experience in fast -paced private aerospace or new -space environments.

What We Look For:

â Ownership mindset and ability to lead complex thermal design efforts.

â Curiosity and eagerness to solve multidisciplinary challenges.

â Adaptability to fast -paced start -up environments.

â Strong analytical and problem -solving skills.

â Passion for aerospace and enthusiasm to contribute to real -world satellite missions.

Benefits

â Competitive compensation aligned with market standards.

â Experience rapid growth in a start -up culture.

â Flexible working hours.

â Opportunity to work closely with the Founding Team.

â Mentorship from advisors with decades of aerospace experience.
