- Reports to: Mechanical team leader
- Job purpose: To perform thermal analyses of a radar payload, using ThermicaSystema tool to support design, verification, and environmental qualification in a space-oriented development environment.
- Location: MetaSensing, Via Aniene 2, 20151, Milan, Italy
- Employment condition: Full-time, 40 hours per week.
- Candidate must be eligible to work in the EU.

Job Duties:
- Thermal analysis of radar payload structures using hand calculations and ThermicaSystema tool (Definition of thermo-optical properties of materials, GMM, TMM, orbit, attitude).
- Interpretation of results to support design decisions and qualification activities in regards to the power loads due to acquisition, heaters, environment).
- Support to mechanical design through close interaction with other engineering teams (CAD, structural, system, electronics).
- Support to environmental qualification campaigns (Thermal balance, Thermal Vacuum), with analysis for preparation and post-test correlation.
- Preparation of thermal analysis reports and qualification documentation.




- Support to system-level mechanical/thermal trade-offs and payload integration activities.
