● Understanding of spacecraft subsystems like power, thermal control, communication, and propulsion, as well as NASA, ESA, DoD, Industry, or ISO standards relevant to spacecraft.
● Ability to coordinate between different engineering teams to ensure subsystem compatibility and optimal performance.
● Knowledge with fault detection, isolation, and recovery (FDIR) concepts for systems.
● Skills in identifying potential technical risks and developing mitigation strategies.
● Understanding of RPO mechanics and operations.
● Experience with space system assembly, integration, and test activities to include test execution, creation of test plans and procedures for requirement verification, and familiarity withsGSFC-STD-7000 and SMC-S-016.
● Experience in designing systems with redundancy and fail-safes to ensure mission success, as well as analyzing system failures and implementing corrective actions.
● Ability to design system architectures that meet functional and performance criteria.
● Experience creating and managing space system technical requirements, budgets, and interface control documents.
● Background knowledge of space-based imaging systems to include mission design, image processing, camera calibrations, and lens design.
● Ability to create detailed design documents, system specifications, test reports, mission plans, and operational procedures.
● Experience developing software in C/C++/Python is preferred.
● Current security clearance or ability to obtain a clearance.
