Red Canyon Engineering & Software Benefits Overview

Lead development and operations of spacecraft navigation across all mission phases. Design and validate advanced Kalman filters and estimation approaches, own navigation products for reviews, support flight operations and anomaly response, mentor junior engineers, improve procedures and tools, and contribute navigation expertise to proposals and new concept development.

Design, implement, and validate spacecraft navigation algorithms and software. Perform orbit determination, trajectory reconstruction, covariance analysis, and tune Kalman filters for radiometric, optical, and GPS data. Configure navigation toolchains, support navigation operations and console activities, communicate results to mission teams, and contribute to requirements, planning, IRAD, and BD efforts.

Leads the full lifecycle development of satellite and aerospace software systems, including requirements definition, systems architecture, trade studies, verification, validation, testing, anomaly resolution, integration, deployment, and operations. Supports spacecraft product roadmaps, customization, cost optimization, and heritage-platform reuse. The role also leads multidisciplinary teams and performs specialized systems analyses across safety, reliability, security, certification, and related engineering disciplines.
