Export Control Laws:

Unless explicitly notified otherwise,  our vacancies are covered by Export Control Laws which require candidates to be from an "Export Safe" Country as deemed by the Japanese Government.
The countries are as follows: 
Japan, Germany, Australia, Argentina, Italy, USA, France, Netherlands, UK, Austria, Ireland, Czech, Spain, Greece Canada, New Zealand, Belgium, Bulgaria, Sweden, Switzerland, Norway, Finland, Luxembourg, Portugal, Denmark Hungary and Poland.


<Key activities / Role and Responsibilities>

  • Lead the development team for satellite GNC (Guidance Navigation and Control) systems, design and verification activities.
  • Contribute to system level activities, such as: developing mission CONOPS (Concept of Operations), defining FMECA (Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis) and FDIR (Failure Detection, Isolation, and Recovery)
  • Detection, Isolation, and Recovery processes and design, system test and verification activities.
  • Develop control law and algorithms – analysis, design, implement and validate (simulate) scenarios for RPO (rendezvous and proximity operations) RPO & docking maneuvers.
  • Develop GNC hardware architecture, trade-off analysis of hardware towards an overall GNC hardware solution.
  • Develop GNC software architecture, implementing algorithms for GNC flight software, towards an overall GNC software solution.
  • Support procurement engineers with trade-off and selection of GNC equipment.
  • Coach junior level engineers and provide consultation in GNC development team.


<Mandatory>

  • 5+ years of experience as an AOCS or GNC systems engineer involved in the design, implementation and testing of GNC solutions for actual spacecraft missions.
  • Experience of algorithm & control law development: use of GNC design and simulation software e.g., MATLAB, implementation of control laws and real world effects (non-linearities, signal noise, tuning), translating algorithms into operational flight software.
  • Experience of hardware trade-offs and hardware and software GNC architectural design.
  • Comfortable using English in a business environment
  • Business level Japanese language capability.


<Desirable>

  • 10+ years of experience as an AOCS or GNC systems engineer involved in the design, implementation and testing of GNC solutions for actual spacecraft missions.
  • Preferable to have experience of implementation of RPO and docking algorithms and solutions.
  • Operational experience of on-orbit satellite operations.
  • Experience in control law design, beyond classical techniques: non linear design, optimal.
  • Knowledge of GNC sensor systems (trade-offs/ procurement, data processing) including cameras, IR and LiDAR.
  • Understanding of safety across the GNC design spectrum: passively safe trajectories, safety critical flight software, operator and ground segment interaction (and level of autonomy), abort maneuvers, and collision avoidance maneuvers.
  • Knowledge of missions concerning ADR (active debris removal) or RPO mission: such as HTV, ETS-7



<職務内容 / 役割・責任>

  • 宇宙機のAOCS (姿勢・軌道制御系) /GNC (航法・誘導・制御) の開発、設計と検証をチームのリーダとして実施する。
  • GNCの立場で、システムレベルの設計を支援する。:事例として、ミッションCONOPS (Concept of Operations) の作成、FMECA (Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis) 、及び FDIR (Failure Detection, Isolation, and Recovery) のプロセス、設計、システム試験・検証計画等の定義。
  • 制御則及びアルゴリズムの開発:RPO (rendezvous and proximity operations) およびドッキングのシナリオを設計、解析し、シミュレーションにより検証する。
  • GNCの機能性能を実現するハードウェア構成をトレードオフし、全体のアーキテクチャを決定する。
  • 調達部門のエンジニアと協働し、調達するGNC機器をトレードオフし、選定する。
  • GNCチームの若手エンジニアの指導、ならびに及びチームメンバに対し助言を行う。


<必須条件>

  • AOCSまたはGNCシステムのエンジニアとして、実際の宇宙機ミッションの設計、解析、試験の実施に5年以上の実務経験を有すこと。
  • 制御則及びアルゴリズムの開発の経験を有すこと。:MATLABなどのGNCの設計・シミュレーションソフトウェアの使用経験、非線形性、信号ノイズ、チューニングなどの現実的な条件の制御則への折り込み。アルゴリズムの搭載ソフトウェアへの適用。
  • GNC構成設計におけるハードウェア、ソフトウェアのトレードオフの経験を有すこと。
  • ビジネスでの英語使用に抵抗ないこと
  • ビジネスレベルの日本語能力を有すること。


<望ましい条件>

  • AOCSまたはGNCシステムのエンジニアとして、実際の宇宙機ミッションの設計、解析、試験の実施の10年以上の実務経験。
  • RPO及びドッキングのアルゴリズムもしくは設計解析の実施経験。
  • 衛星の軌道上での運用に関わった経験。
  • 非線形、最適化などの、先進的な制御則設計の経験
  • GNCセンサー (可視・赤外カメラ、LiDARなど) のトレードオフ、調達、データ処理等の知識
  • 安全面でのGNC設計の理解:受動安全軌道、危険回避の搭載ソフト、自動化・自律化を含む運用者・地上系との関わり、アボートマヌーバ、衝突回避マヌーバ等
  • デブリ除去やRPOにかかわる宇宙ミッション (HTV, ETS-7等) の知識
