Mid Level Career (5+ yrs experience)
Engineering - Systems
Renton, WA (On-Site/Office)
As part of a hardworking team of engineers, you will apply your broad multi-disciplinary engineering knowledge, skills, and methods to help ensure our spacecraft satisfies the needs of our critical partners through rigorous systems engineering practices. As part our Blue Ring Spacecraft Systems Engineering team you will help ensure the program requirements, operational descriptions, and system designs have been shaped so that the overall system meets our customers’ needs. You will assist in the definition and verification of system interfaces, architecture, and con ops. Finally, you will work with all program interfaces including Assembly, Integration, & Test (AI&T), Mission Management, Launch Vehicle, Payloads, and Mission Operations.
The position requires strong collaboration within the SSE team and across the entire program. In this fast-paced and dynamic environment, you will contribute to innovative solutions while demonstrating personal leadership, technical competence and judgement, and a commitment to the highest technical standards.
Special Mentions:
Travel expected up to 10% of the time
Top Secret clearance required
Responsibilities include but are not limited to:
Work with the program’s Lead Systems Engineer to ensure compliance with design standards, processes, and general best practices.
Apply a variety of technical principles and tools in Systems Engineering such as CONOPs development, requirements analysis, and interface definition.
Work with subsystems to ensure proper requirements definition, verification and validation plans, consistency with system and mission objectives
Oversee verification and validation strategies, plans and processes to ensure software and hardware components, and the integrated spacecraft subsystems will meet system requirements and mission goals.
Collaborate with other program elements (I&T, ground systems, flight operations, mission management, and systems architecture) to understand their needs and create holistic solutions.
Identify and assisted in the management of technical, schedule and cost risks.
Work with the flight software team to resolve implementation issues, review the software development processes, link their development to L3 requirements and needed functional behaviors.
Asist in the planning and develop of system-level verification methods and events.
Support and collaborate with the Assembly, Integration and Test team in developing test procedures and scripts.
Support integration activities “on the floor” in the spacecraft assembly facility.
Asist with proposals based on knowledge of spacecraft capabilities and functions.
Manage technical performance measures for the overall vehicle.
Participate in gated program reviews and drive subsequent actions to closure.
Drive process improvements with a sense of ownership and urgency
Minimum Qualifications:
Minimum of a B.S. degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Aerospace engineering or equivalent technical field.
Demonstrated understanding of systems engineering fundamentals and experience in multiple system lifecycle phases.
Successful candidates in this role typically have 5+ years of related experience in the design, development, and flight test of aerospace systems, preferably spacecraft.
Experience developing an integrated system with depth in one or more spacecraft subsystems, and/or system design and integration.
Experience in definition of space system requirements and concept definitions that span a broad range of mission objectives.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Active US Government TS clearance
Preferred Qualifications:
M.S. degree in a relevant technical field
Active TS/SCI security clearance preferred
Domain experience with spacecraft system and subsystem functions, interfaces, and communication protocols (i.e. serial, 1553, Ethernet, embedded software, etc.).
Experience defining and performing complex trade studies
Experience with design, development, and certification of spaceflight systems
Experience with logical and physical architecture definition and decomposition
Experience using hardware or software testbeds and lab environments for software and system verification.
The position requires strong collaboration within the SSE team and across the entire program.
