Full job description

Aim high, go beyond!

At Open Cosmos we are solving the world’s biggest challenges from space, providing businesses, governments and researchers access to more readily available information than ever before - ready for the challenge? Then read on…

Our Systems Team brings together brilliant Engineers who turn ambitious mission concepts into reality.

As Open Cosmos continues to expand, we’re looking for Senior Systems Engineers to lead the technical delivery of complex space missions, driving system architecture, integration, and mission success across the full spacecraft lifecycle. This role plays a key part in shaping engineering best practices while providing technical leadership across multidisciplinary teams.

What You'll Be Doing

You will:

Lead the technical delivery of spacecraft systems from concept and architecture through operations and deorbit
Own system-level architecture, coherence, performance, and reliability across mission phases
Define, manage, and maintain mission and system requirements with full lifecycle traceability
Lead system-level verification and validation planning, execution, and technical resolution activities
Perform system analyses, trade studies, and design optimisation to meet mission and operational objectives
Develop and improve MBSE methodologies, tools, and systems engineering processes across projects
Define robust FMECA and Fault Detection, Isolation and Recovery (FDIR) strategies
Ensure appropriate system margins, resilience, and fault tolerance are embedded into mission designs
Coordinate multidisciplinary engineering teams to deliver integrated spacecraft solutions
Act as the systems interface across engineering, AIT, mission management, operations, suppliers, and external partners
Support bids, customer engagements, reviews, and operational decision-making with systems-level expertise
Mentor and support junior systems and engineers while promoting engineering best practice across the organisation

What You’ll Bring

Strong systems engineering capability across the full lifecycle of space missions and spacecraft development
Deep knowledge of spacecraft subsystems including power, OBC, AOCS, communications, propulsion, and thermal/mechanical systems
Proficiency with MBSE tools and structured systems engineering methodologies
Strong understanding of requirements management, verification and validation, margins management, and mission assurance activities
Knowledge of FMECA, FDIR, CONOPS, and resilient spacecraft system design principles
Awareness of regulatory and mission constraints including frequency allocation, debris mitigation, export control, and insurance considerations
Capability to coordinate multidisciplinary engineering teams and manage technical interfaces across complex programmes

These roles can be based in any of our locations.

To apply, you must have the legal right to work in your chosen location.

Please submit your application in English.
