Wow, no info about start parms into their wiki. Their .cfg file better be rich in settings then.
Do we know what engine this is?

It's a custom engine. Here is what the server.ini looks like:

It seems that currently only the core game data port is configurable. The steam port, query port, and polling port are all static. See the server output:

This config file looks like Unity3D. Hope non configurable ports are outgoing...

@nthirtyone commented on GitHub (Jan 28, 2017):

It is scripting API Documentation @SkippTekk.
Anyway, from today's patch (0.10.2):

All server ports are now configurable via command line

Command line parameters are visible with --help.

--port arg listening port of the server
--query-port arg internal game query port of the server, default: 27003
--steam-query-port arg steam query port of the server, default: 27020
--steam-master-port arg steam master server port of the server, default: 27021

I wouldn't bother that much with config files because they are per-galaxy (game world), cannot be changed while server is online and sometimes tend to be overwritten by command line parameters.

Just in case someone comes here for this last post which is really helpful, here is a bug regarding modification of polling port http://www.avorion.net/forum/index.php?topic=973.0
