Your missionJoin us insafeguarding the sustainability of space operationsthrough advanced space situational awareness (SSA) technologies. As part of our team, you will developcutting-edge collision avoidancealgorithms, enhancespace situational awareness, and innovate tools for satellite operators. Your expertise in data science and physics will help us detect, predict, and mitigate orbital risks, ensuring safe and sustainable space exploration.OKAPI:Orbits already brings together ahighly diverse team, and we actively continue to strengthen this diversity which allows us to achieve higher performance and drive innovation.Your tasks and responsibilitiesYou will collaborate with amultidisciplinary team of aerospace engineers, data scientists, and software developersto integrate and optimize third-party sensor data sources within ourSSA platform. Your contributions will directly enhance the accuracy, automation, and scalability of our orbital risk management solutions.Integrate third-party data sourcesinto our platform,



working closely with providers to seamlessly onboard their data.Develop, implement, and optimize high-precision algorithms fororbit propagation, orbit determination (OD), sensor fusion, covariance modelling, and uncertainty quantification.Develop methods to fuse data from diverse sources into one common image of thespace debris environment .Conduct validation and verification (V&V;) campaigns to benchmark and refine algorithmic performance against ground truth datasets.Work closely with software engineers to transitionprototype algorithms into scalable, production-ready solutions.Your profileMust-have:M.Sc. or higher inAerospace Engineering, Space Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Applied Physics, or a closely related field, or have prior work experience in the field of SSA/SST and related.A minimum of5 yearsof relevant work experience is required. However, candidates with outstanding profiles may be considered with at least 3 years of experience.Strong t
