At
INDRA DEIMOS
, we design and deliver complete space systems for Earth observation, communications, and scientific missions. Our Systems Engineering Competence Centre leads the technical architecture of satellite platforms, from early concept to on-orbit operations. We are currently working on multiple ESA and commercial projects, applying cutting-edge technologies to shape the future of space.
What's the Challenge?
As a
Senior Space Systems Engineer
, you will play a key role in the design, development, and verification of complex spacecraft systems. You will coordinate technical activities across subsystems, define system-level requirements, and ensure architectural consistency throughout the mission lifecycle. Working closely with multidisciplinary teams, you will drive performance, reliability, and innovation across all mission phases.
Your Responsibilities Will Include
* Leading the design, development, and verification of critical subsystems (OBDH, AOCS, Propulsion, Communications, EPS)
* Defining and managing system-level requirements and ensuring interface compatibility
* Developing and maintaining the spacecraft system architecture across all subsystems
* Performing trade-off analyses, simulations, and optimizations for mass, power, cost, and performance
* Coordinating hardware and software integration across subsystems
* Supporting cross-functional activities with Ground Segment and Flight Operations teams
* Leading anomaly resolution and troubleshooting throughout the project lifecycle
* Preparing and maintaining technical documentation: requirements, ICDs, verification plans, and design reviews
* Collaborating with internal and external stakeholders to ensure mission and operational success
What We're Looking For
Technical Skills
* Proven experience in spacecraft systems engineering and subsystem coordination
* Strong understanding of MBSE methodologies and system-level design
* Familiarity with mechanical, thermal, radiation, and propulsion systems
* Proficiency in space design and analysis tools (CATIA, NASTRAN/PATRAN, ESATAN, FASTRAD)
* Hands-on approach to solving cross-functional technical challenges
* Knowledge of New Space practices and low-level integration techniques
* Experience with ECSS standards and technical documentation
* Ability to analyze and verify system configurations under operational constraints
Additional Valued Skills
* Experience with Capella or Valispace MBSE tools
* Knowledge of Python or other scripting languages
* Technical writing and familiarity with space-related standards
Education and Experience
* Bachelor's or Master's degree in Aerospace, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
* Master's or PhD is a plus
* 10+ years of experience in relevant roles within the space industry
Language Skills
* Fluent English (minimum B2 level)
* Spanish is a plus
Personal Attributes
* Collaborative, proactive, and reliable
* Strong leadership and communication skills
* Ability to manage priorities and work in dynamic environments
* Willingness to travel occasionally and work across DEIMOS locations or customer sites
