At Orbital Paradigm, we design, develop, manufacture, and operate reusable orbital logistics systems. Our spacecraft perform multiple orbital mission profiles and return safely to Earth through hypersonic atmospheric reentry and landing with pinpoint accuracy for rapid refurbishment and reuse.

Role Description

We are looking for a Mid-Level Mission Analysis Engineer to support mission design, trajectory analysis, performance assessment, and systems engineering activities for our reusable orbital logistics vehicles.

The role covers orbital mechanics, trajectory design, mission phases definition, delta-v and mass budget analysis, performance trade studies, and mission-level inputs for spacecraft sizing. The engineer will work closely with systems, GNC, propulsion, thermal, avionics, software, and operations teams to define feasible mission concepts and support system-level design decisions.

This role requires strong analytical capability, good programming skills, and the ability to synthesize mission requirements, constraints,



and trade-study results into clear engineering inputs to support spacecraft and operations design and development

Key Responsibilities
- Perform mission analysis, orbital mechanics calculations, and trajectory design for reusable spacecraft missions.
- Develop and assess mission sequences, operational concepts, maneuver plans, and trajectory options.
- Perform delta-v budget, mass budget, propellant budget, and performance margin analysis.
- Support spacecraft sizing activities, including power, mass, communications, propulsion, and thermal input assessments.
- Perform trade studies to evaluate mission architectures, operational constraints, performance margins, and system impacts.
- Develop analytical models and simulation tools for mission design, trajectory propagation, and performance assessment.
- Generate mission-level inputs for systems engineering, GNC, propulsion, thermal, communications, and operations teams.
- Support requirement
