Translate mission‑level requirements into C&DH functional and non‑functional specifications.
Produce System Requirements, Interface Control (ICDs), and Description documents.
Perform requirement management and maintain bidirectional traceability throughout the project lifecycle.
Collaborate with cyber‑security to embed resilience and security by design, ECU.

Design & Development

Lead detailed design of on‑board processors, data‑buses (SpaceWire, MIL‑1553, CAN, Ethernet), memory subsystems, and I/O interfaces.
Support software architecture: command sequencing, telemetry packetization, health‑monitoring, services, fault‑detection‑isolation‑recovery (FDIR).
Support Satellite Reference Database development and validation

Cross‑Functional Coordination, Stakeholder & Program Interaction

Communicate technical status, risk assessments and trade‑study results to senior management and/or customers or partners.
Work with FSW teams to define RTOS, APIs, task scheduling, real‑time operating system configuration, services usage.
Define uplink command formatting, downlink telemetry packet structures, and ground‑segment data‑handling interfaces (mission‑control servers, data‑archiving pipelines).
Coordinate with the TT&C/PDT engineering and Ground Segment ICDs to ensure end‑to‑end data integrity.
Support B&P (Phase 0 & pre-phase A).

Integration & Verification (IVV)

Develop verification plans, test matrices, and validation procedures for unit, subsystem, and spacecraft level C&DH tests.
Execute functional tests, bus‑protocol compliance, SIL and HIL campaigns.
Manage anomaly investigations, root‑cause analysis, and corrective‑action implementation.
