EMBEDDED SOFTWARE ENGINEER
Pubblicato il 19-09-2026 - Thales Group in Roma
Overview
In this role, you will help design, develop and test spacecraft simulators that faithfully reproduce spacecraft, ground segment and space environment behavior. You’ll work within a cross-functional team to model subsystems, dynamics and TM/TC exchanges, contributing to mission-oriented simulation capabilities. The position calls for advanced software design, real-time simulation, and integration across flight and ground models, with a focus on reusability and rigorous validation. You will join a multinational environment that values collaboration and technical excellence, offering opportunities to shape simulation architectures for future space missions.
