Experience
Significant experience in at least two of the following areas, with familiarity or interest in several others:
Physics disciplines such as classical electromagnetics and space radiation environment effects
RF systems and/or high-speed digital systems design, fabrication, and testing
Space systems engineering including vehicle design, space environments, and mission operations
Environmental testing (vibration, thermal vacuum, EMI/EMC, payload integration)
Test design, procedure development, and execution
Investigative data analysis and rapid troubleshooting of complex systems
Development of automated analysis and reporting tools or custom analysis applications
Additional Skills
Ability to build productive and respectful working relationships
Strong written and verbal communication skills for technical and non-technical audiences
Ability to solve complex engineering and technical problems
Ability to quickly learn and apply advanced technical knowledge
Programming experience in analytical or scientific environments (MATLAB, Python, C/C++, or similar)
