Indra Deimos is seeking a highly skilled Optical Payload Architect to join the Mission End to End team in Tres Cantos. The Optical Payload Architect will take technical leadership in the definition and delivery of next-generation Earth Observation (EO) payloads. This role is central to the success of our spacecraft missions, ensuring that payloads deliver the required performance while meeting cost, schedule, and risk constraints. The successful candidate will act as the technical authority for optical payloads within the spacecraft manufacturer, defining system-level requirements, managing subcontractors, and driving end-to-end payload performance. Satellite formation flying, rendezvous, in-orbit servicing (IOS) and active debris removal (ADR) Payload Architecture & Specification Define the end-to-end performance requirements of EO optical payloads (spatial, spectral, radiometric, temporal, geometric). Lead the development of payload concepts and architectures (high-resolution imaging, multispectral, hyperspectral, video, or spectrometers). Own the payload performance budgets (SNR, GSD, MTF, radiometry, straylight, thermal stability) and ensure compliance with mission requirements. Support mission and spacecraft-level trade-offs (orbit, AOCS, power, thermal, data handling, downlink) to optimise payload performance. Subcontractor & Partner Management Prepare technical specifications and manage the procurement of payloads from subcontractors. Act as the main technical interface with payload suppliers, monitoring progress, design maturity, risks, and compliance. Lead technical reviews with subcontractors (SRR, PDR, CDR, TRR, ORR). Drive end-to-end modelling and simulation of payload performance (image chain, pointing, jitter, radiometric budgets). Support spacecraft-level integration, verification, and validation activities, including payload-level acceptance and environmental testing. Contribute to in-orbit commissioning and calibration strategy definition. Mentor and guide junior engineers working on payload performance, modelling, and verification. Provide clear technical reporting to project management, customers, and partners.
