Space GNC Engineer: From Simulation to First Light
Eon
EON is building a high-throughput GNC data link in space. We seek engineers across pointing, acquisition, and simulation to own segments of the pointing chain from concept through first light, and to defend budgets with rigorous simulation. Your work will tie platform pointing to a robust simulation framework, supporting 6-DOF dynamics, orbital geometry, and vendor interfaces. Expect a fast-paced, high-impact environment in Culver City, CA. #J-18808-Ljbffr Eon
