We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and commitment to quality to positively impact safe human spaceflight. Passion for our mission and vision is required! You should have the desire to learn from new challenges and the problem solving and communication skills to work within a highly interactive and experienced team.
Responsibilities:
- Own the development and integration of LRU assemblies that control various subsystems on New Glenn rocket such as electromechanical/electrohydraulic actuators, sensors, etc.
- Own qualification testing at the integrated assembly level in extreme environments of radiation, temperature, vibration, and EMI/EMC per MIL-STD-461 and DO-160 standards.
- Support stakeholders with requirement definition and verification activities.
- Apply technical expertise to problem solving throughout product lifecycle, including concept, definition, design, verification (power-on, functional / acceptance / qualification testing) and release to production.
