Über diese Stelle

Here at The Exploration Company, we are building spacecrafts for humanity.

Our In-Orbit Services unit is dedicated to expanding and complementing these capabilities by conceptualizing and developing new technologies, products and programs.

We are seeking a methodical Fault Management Engineer to help us strike the right balance between performance and reliability. The In-Orbit Services Fault Management Engineer is responsible for ensuring the reliability, availability, maintainability, and safety of orbital service vehicles and systems. This role is central to the design, development, and operational assurance of in-orbit service missions, supporting both technical risk reduction and mission success.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Fault Management Strategy:
Define, implement and validate fault management strategies, including Failure Detection, Isolation, and Recovery (FDIR) logic for in-orbit service vehicles.
Coordinate between hardware and flight software teams to architect robust and lean fault management solutions.
RAMS Analyses & Assurance:
Lead the definition and execution of fault tree analyses (FTA) and Failure Modes, Effects, and Criticality Analyses (FMECA) to identify and mitigate potential failure modes.

Perform reliability and availability prediction studies and allocate reliability targets to subsystems and equipment.

Conduct hazard analyses for ground, orbital, and re-entry phases, ensuring compliance with relevant safety requirements, including the safety analysis for launch authorities.

Continuous Improvement:

Collect and analyze in-orbit data to inform lessons learned and drive improvements in fault management and overall system reliability.

Support the creation and improvement of RAMS analysis tools and technical documentation.

Collaboration & Communication:

Work closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams (mechanical, thermal, avionics, software, operations, systems) to integrate RAMS and fault management requirements throughout the project lifecycle.

Prepare and present technical data, recommendations, and reports to internal and external stakeholders.

Technical skills: Proficiency in reliability tools (FMECA, FTA, reliability block diagrams) and fault management methodologies.
Experience: Hands-on experience with spacecraft FDIR strategy definition and validation planning and execution.
Communication: Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to convey technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
Feedback: Willingness to give proactive and mindful feedback across all company levels.
Mindset: Highly motivated to work in a fast paced, autonomously driven, and demanding start-up environment.
Languages: Fluent in English.
