About the Role

We are looking for a part-time Simulations Engineer to support the aerodynamic and structural design of our re-entry capsule. The primary focus will be CFD, with opportunities to contribute to FEA and vibrational/dynamic analysis as the project evolves. Results will aid with the optimisation of the capsule design.

Key Responsibilities

As part of a small and rapidly evolving team, you will:

  • Develop and run CFD simulations of re-entry conditions using aerodynamic and aerothermal analysis using Ansys Fluent or Star-CCM+
  • Support structural and vibrational analyses using COMSOL Multiphysics
  • Process and interpret simulation data, generating clear reports for the design team
  • Adapt quickly to changing requirements in a start-up environment

Skills & Qualifications

  • Preferred applicants will have/be studying towards a MSc or PhD in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or Spacecraft Engineering
  • Strong background in fluid dynamics, heat transfer or structural mechanics
  • Proficiency with ANSYS Fluent (CFD) and experience with COMSOL or equivalent FEA tools are desirable
  • Experience writing scripts using Python or MATLAB
  • Location: preference for candidates based in Leicester or the Midlands with ability to commute

Additional Notes

This is a startup-stage role suited for those passionate about space technology and eager to apply their simulation skills in a real-world context. The position offers a unique opportunity to contribute directly to the aerodynamic and thermal optimisation of an operational re-entry capsule. We're looking for someone who is proactive, curious and comfortable working in a multidisciplinary environment where your contribution shapes the mission. While the role is voluntary, high-performing members may be considered for future equity or paid opportunities as the project scales. Please note that Logispace does not provide visa sponsorship.

About the Role

We are looking for a part-time Orbit Dynamics Engineer to support mission design, trajectory analysis and orbital operations planning for our microgravity capsule platform. This role focuses on analysing orbital dynamics, defining mission profiles and evaluating manoeuvre requirements for launch, on-orbit operations and re-entry. You will work closely with the systems and propulsion teams to ensure mission feasibility, optimise delta-v budgets and support the overall architecture of our spacecraft and demonstration missions.

Key Responsibilities

As part of a small and rapidly evolving team, you will:

  • Perform orbital analysis and trajectory calculations for demonstration missions and future operational scenarios
  • Estimate delta-v requirements for orbit insertion, station keeping, manoeuvres and de-orbit operations
  • Support the development of mission timelines and orbital operational concepts
  • Analyse re-entry trajectories and orbital decay considerations for capsule recovery
  • Contribute to the modelling and simulation of spacecraft orbits using analytical or numerical tools
  • Support the integration of propulsion and attitude control considerations into mission planning
  • Document mission assumptions, calculations and analysis clearly for team collaboration
  • Adapt quickly to evolving requirements in a start-up environment

Skills & Qualifications

  • Preferred applicants will have/be studying towards a MSc or PhD in Aerospace Engineering, Astrodynamics, Space Engineering, Physics or related disciplines
  • Strong understanding of orbital mechanics, Keplerian motion and spacecraft trajectory design
  • Ability to perform orbital calculations and delta-v analysis
  • Familiarity with mission analysis tools such as MATLAB, Python, GMAT, STK or similar
  • Understanding of spacecraft mission phases including launch, orbital operations and re-entry
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with clear technical communication ability
  • Location: preference for candidates based in Leicester or the Midlands with ability to commute

Additional Notes

This is a startup-stage role suited for those passionate about orbital dynamics and mission design in space systems. The position offers a unique opportunity to contribute directly to the development of a reusable spacecraft platform enabling microgravity experiments and rapid sample return. We are looking for someone who is proactive, analytical and comfortable working in a multidisciplinary environment where your work directly informs spacecraft mission planning. While the role is voluntary, high-performing members may be considered for future equity or paid opportunities as the project scales. Please note that Logispace does not provide visa sponsorship.
