Jobs at Red Canyon Engineering & Software

Design, implement, and validate spacecraft navigation algorithms and software. Perform orbit determination, trajectory reconstruction, covariance analysis, and tune Kalman filters for radiometric, optical, and GPS data. Configure navigation toolchains, support navigation operations and console activities, communicate results to mission teams, and contribute to requirements, planning, IRAD, and BD efforts.

Lead development and operations of spacecraft navigation across all mission phases. Design and validate advanced Kalman filters and estimation approaches, own navigation products for reviews, support flight operations and anomaly response, mentor junior engineers, improve procedures and tools, and contribute navigation expertise to proposals and new concept development.

Support, administer, and secure Windows/Linux servers, virtualization, storage, and network infrastructure for mission-critical launch range operations. Provide sysadmin tasks (patching, backups, AD, troubleshooting), support LAN/WAN and telecommunications, and lead cybersecurity activities including vulnerability mitigation, intrusion detection, and compliance. Mentor junior staff and coordinate technical efforts to maintain reliable, secure IT systems.

Develop, integrate, and test spacecraft flight software across the full lifecycle. Implement and upgrade cFS-based applications, perform unit-to-platform verification in simulation and HIL/FlatSat environments, support integration with hardware and payloads, and participate in anomaly resolution, mission operations support, and proposal activities.

Lead satellite systems verification and validation: develop test plans, build automated test systems and GSE, execute tests, analyze data, report non-conformances, and support system architecture, requirements, and CONOPS development across the full space mission lifecycle.

The Senior Systems Engineer will design, integrate, and support mission-critical satellite operations systems, ensuring secure and efficient execution across the systems engineering lifecycle.
