FEED

Set and defend the bus specification against the loads: PPU input range, inrush and ripple at thruster ignition, bus stability at the PCDU–PPU interface, and the cold-eclipse-exit overvoltage case that sets the HV design point. You will own the spacecraft’s electrical backbone: an ~8 kW solar array feeding a high-voltage bus that drives electric propulsion, a low-voltage bus that runs everything else, and the power conditioning, battery management and distribution hardware in between.

This is an opportunity to apply expertise in estimation and sensor fusion to both set the sensor suite and interface requirements and implement the onboard navigation that delivers them —working collaboratively across control, perception, and avionics to close the docking loop on hardware, ultimately defining the navigation scope and requirements for future tiles. You will define the navigation accuracy budget the control loop is built on, design and tune the filter that delivers relative ranging and bearing from the tile sensor suite, prove it through analysis and simulation, and bring it into reality in onboard flight software.
