Kayser Space, recently established in the UK, brings a 30year heritage in science payloads and subsystems built up by parent company Kayser Italia, a leading supplier of experimental hardware for the International Space Station, specialising in space electronics and life science experiments in microgravity environments. Kayser is building a technology portfolio in the UK and has a long history of working with universities to bring innovations from the research laboratory into space applications. Kayser Space is currently expanding its team to work on ESA funded projects related to hardware development for life science experiments on board the International Space Station. The company is also involved in a range of other microgravity experiments, space technology development and the translation of space hardware and knowhow to other sectors, particularly within the life sciences remit. Key Tasks Responsibilities Reporting to the Programme Manager Technical Lead, the Systems Engineer generates hardware systems concepts, specification, architecture and development plans for new and existing space flight systems, with main duties and responsibilities to include Definition and analysis of system and subsystem requirements from specified userscientific requirements. In the absence of clearly defined specifications, be able to understand the underlying goals in order to proposeclarify equipment requirements. Determine systems architecture specifications and working parameters for hardwaresoftware compatibility and coordinate the development of subsystems to integrate the total system. Specify interfaces between hardware and software to develop and integrate cohesive systems and products. Ability to tradeoff design and technical options to establish the right solution and where applicable procurement method, e.g. make or buy. Carry out the technical evaluation of suppliers and contactors. Apply mature engineering knowledge to large andor complex projects. Engineering planning and overseeing the manufacture procurement of experimental hardware systems and subsystems for space applications, providing coordination of subsystem specialists during implementation, integration and tests in line with space engineering standards and practices. Overall responsibility for technical control and test activities, including availability of facilities, EGSE and test systems, production of test procedures and test results reports, and verification and tracking of requirements. Ensure the complete and timely preparation of project materials and services in line with the technical specifications of the contract. Manage delivery of system and subsystem work packages, including associated documentation, according to standard space engineering practices. Liaise with wider team electronics, software, mechanical design, space systems engineers and scientists, customers, subcontractors and external suppliers on technical matters relating to design, implementation, test and any related systems engineering issues. Provide support in relevant aspects of bidding activities. Essential Skills Experience Qualified to BSc level in Engineering, Physics or equivalent. At least 3years systems engineering experience in space flight hardware development projects, including requirements capture and analysis, design phase, manufacture, procurement and integration phase and test activities. Knowledge of ECSS standards and space engineering practices. Experience working with multidisciplinary teams of scientists and engineers. Proven ability to work independently and use own initiative to identify, clarify and agree scope of tasks, including required documentation output. Desirable Skills Experience Postgraduate qualifications to MSc or PhD level. Familiarity with risk analysis and mitigation, as well as quality and safety aspects, particularly in manned spaceflight environments. Familiarity with life science experiments, microgravity environments, radiation susceptibilityeffectsanalysismodelling andor CubeSat platforms. Right to work in the UK. This role is based in Harwell and will require full time attendance at our offices. There will be the opportunity for some occasional international travel to client sites, especially within Europe. The expectation is for the Systems Engineer to gain experience through involvement in a variety of projects and technical tasks, as well as commercial exposure to the space industry, to evolve into a Technical Lead with Project Management responsibilities. Starting salaries depend on the current level of expertise and experience
