Your mission
You will be a part of safeguarding space missions! Someone needs to take care of satellites not colliding with each other or with space debris – we are these people. Work with us on the first-ever collision avoidance and frequency coordination framework using the modern technologies and tools the world has to offer today – within and around OKAPI platform.
So far, sustainable spaceflight, such as collision avoidance, is generally performed as externality: Mission plans are derived accounting for payload operations, ground station contacts, loading cycles etc. Interference with third-party objects (space debris, but also other operational satellites) are taken as external factors which interrupt the plan of operations and service delivery.
You will be working on OKAPI:Orbits collision avoidance services and develop them further, to enable customers avoiding interference already on their day-to-day mission planning in an automated way.
Additionally, you will contribute to projects for national and international customers from both the private and public sector (e.g. European Space Agency, German Aerospace Center).
