Lead on-orbit commissioning activities, including spacecraft health checks, payload activation, inter-satellite link commissioning, and end-to-end operational verification
Develop and maintain redundancy, resilience, and disaster recovery strategies for mission-critical systems
Coordinate with external partners, suppliers, and operational stakeholders to ensure seamless delivery
Support transition planning towards fully scalable 24/7 constellation operations

Essential Skills & Experience

12+ years’ experience in satellite operations, mission operations, or spacecraft fleet management
Strong background in LEO constellation operations and on-orbit commissioning activities
Hands-on experience with mission control or mission management systems
Solid understanding of SSA/SDA workflows, conjunction assessment, and collision avoidance processes
Proven experience leading complex operational programmes across multidisciplinary engineering teams
Strong stakeholder management and decision-making skills in operational environments
Degree or postgraduate qualification in Aerospace Engineering, Systems Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline

Desirable Experience

Experience scaling operations for large or growing satellite constellations
