WHAT YOU'LL GET TO DO:

As a Senior GNC Software Engineer at Rocket Lab, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the software systems that control our cutting-edge rockets. You will be involved in the full lifecycle of software development, from initial design through to implementation and validation.

  • Develop and validate 6DOF simulators to ensure the accuracy and reliability of our flight systems

  • Perform unit tests and software integration tests to guarantee the highest levels of software quality
  • Process data and automate the generation of detailed reports to facilitate informed decision-making
  • Create new software products, review and approve software requirements, and conduct comprehensive Monte-Carlo simulations and pre-flight, launch-day, and post-flight analyses
  • Model and predict vehicle parameters and manage configuration control to maintain system integrity
  • Review software merge requests to ensure all new GNC Software meets our rigorous internal standards
  • Identify and implement process improvements to drive efficiency within the GNC team
  • Participate in launch activities and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL) operations to ensure mission success

WHAT TO EXPECT

We're on a mission to unlock the potential of space to improve life on Earth, but that's not an easy task. It takes hard work, determination, relentless innovation, teamwork, grit, and an unwavering commitment to achieving what others often deem impossible. Our people out-think, out-work and out-pace. We pride ourselves on having each other's backs, checking our egos at the door, and rolling up our sleeves on all tasks big and small. We thrive under pressure, work to tight deadlines, and our focus is always on how we can deliver, rather than dwelling on the challenges that stand in the way.
