We're looking for a mid-career Space Engineer with strong astrodynamics and software experience to join our team. You'll help design and implement spacecraft operations tools and software for multi-tonne satellites, constellations, and stations for Saber's Responsive Space Operations Centre (RSOC).

What you'll do

• Develop and maintain orbital mechanics and astrodynamics algorithms (propagation, maneuver planning, trajectory design, rendezvous analysis)
• Support mission analysis and trajectory optimization
• Contribute to Saber's core flight dynamics and mission platforms
• Write robust, test-driven code (Python, C#, C++), collaborate with engineers and operators, support telemetry analysis and integration with ground systems

What we're looking for

• Citizen of Australia, New Zealand, UK, USA, or Canada
• Bachelor's / Master's in Astrodynamics, Space Engineering, or Applied Mathematics
• 5-10 years of experience in space engineering software roles
• Strong background in orbit determination, propagation models, maneuver planning, and algorithm optimization
• Solid coding skills with Agile and CI/CD experience (Bitbucket, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, etc.) and demonstrated ability to write efficient code for complex problems

Highly valued experience

• Orbit determination
• Kalman filtering and state uncertainty propagation
• Modern astrodynamics libraries
• Lambert solvers
• Rendezvous
• Optimization tools
• Satellite operations
• Simulation of both high-thrust and low-thrust environments
• Exposure to AWS/Kubernetes/Docker; ground systems integration; and Unity or other modern 3D graphics engine

At Saber, we value creativity, honesty, playfulness, and dedication to excellence. We're looking for a collaborative problem solver who is passionate about space and eager to contribute to real missions.
