UK Space Jobs

ClearSpace · London

Support the technical development of spacecraft across the full mission lifecycle, from concept and requirements definition through design, AIT, launch and in-orbit commissioning. Focus on avionics architecture, interfaces and system-level integration, acting as technical point of contact with customers and subcontractors while maintaining electrical budgets and parametric models.

ClearSpace · London

Owns the overall spacecraft thermo-mechanical architecture, from concept through launch and operations, as a key member of the Mechanical, Thermal and Propulsion team. Leads mechanical design, interfaces, trade-offs and verification, acting as primary technical focal point for customers, partners and suppliers, with scope to coordinate the MTP domains on a mission.

CesiumAstro · Milton Keynes

Designs and implements high-speed DSP algorithms for satellite and aerospace communication systems, including filters, equalisers, timing/carrier recovery loops and FFT engines. Builds floating- and fixed-point models in MATLAB or Python to verify VHDL hardware realisations, modelling channel impairments such as noise, Doppler and multipath.

ClearSpace · London

Lead the Guidance, Navigation and Control architecture for a space mission, defining subsystem requirements, simulator and test specifications, and managing the GNC engineering team. The role involves fault-tolerant algorithm design, rendezvous and pose estimation sensors, trajectory design and hardware integration, interfacing with system and robotic architects. Distinct for its focus on in-orbit servicing and space debris removal.

ClearSpace · London

Act as technical authority for spacecraft propulsion design within the Mechanical, Thermal and Propulsion team, owning the propulsion architecture across the mission lifecycle. Lead concept definition, system-level trade-offs, budgets, requirements and verification, with potential to coordinate the MTP domains on a mission. Involves mentoring engineers and engaging customers, suppliers and institutional stakeholders.

ClearSpace · London

Owns the spacecraft thermal architecture across all mission phases, defining control strategies, thermal budgets and hardware such as MLI, radiators, heat pipes and heaters. Leads thermal modelling in ESATAN-TMS, verification and TVAC testing, and may coordinate the Mechanical, Thermal and Propulsion domains on a mission. Acts as technical authority liaising with customers, suppliers and partners while mentoring thermal engineers.
