Responsibilities
Digital Twin Development: Architect and scale a comprehensive simulation environment that models multiple constellation shells, accounting for the effect of orbital perturbations, space vehicle power constraints, and link availability
Network Topology Modeling: Architect and implement networking layers to visualize data routing, latency, and coverage/throughput across the dynamic constellation mesh
Stakeholder Tooling: Design and deploy "user-friendly" dashboards and visualization tools (e.g., web-based 3D viewers) that allow non-experts to interact with the constellation model
Cross-Functional Integration: Serve as a bridge between mission design, space vehicle engineering, and the product management teams at Logos
Predictive Analysis: Develop "shadow ops" capabilities to simulate constellation behavior in advance of planned events or to reconstruct past scenarios
Qualification
Required
Education: BS, MS, or PhD in Aerospace Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, with exposure to Astrodynamics
Experience: 5+ years in modeling and simulation, ideally within the aerospace or telecommunications sectors
Software: Expert-level proficiency in Python, C++, Rust, or Julia, with experience building large-scale distributed Digit Twin simulations
Visualization: Experience with 3D visualization engines such as CesiumJS, Unreal Engine, etc
Domain Knowledge: Strong understanding of orbital mechanics (J2 perturbations, coordinate frames) and network protocols
Preferred
Experience with Constellation-level satellite networking simulation frameworks
Experience with System Tool Kit (STK), FreeFlyer, or similar Space mission simulation frameworks
Background in data visualization for complex geospatial datasets
Experience with LEO satellite communication constellations
Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Government Security Clearance
