* Perform test engineering and requirements flow down assessment on satellite level test plans, procedures and reports
* Provide analysis support on satellite test results to verify the satellite design satisfies the system requirements
* Evaluate non-conformances to determine root cause and create trackable risk items and advise on solutions and improvements
* Participate in Failure Review Boards (FRBs) to adjudicate and resolve anomalies by direct fact finding, audits, inquiries, and investigations of processing, testing, or operational failures
* Monitor compliance to interfaces and standards, and appropriate deviations/waivers are in place
* Oversee and advise government program management on integration across full spectrum of interfaces, to include coordination with multiple mission partners
* Produce documentation, reports in support of design, development, production, and testing
* Communicate clearly, concisely, and with technical accuracy-oral and written

Qualifications

Required skills:

* Minimum five (5) years DoD/IC, or relevant industry work experience
* Understanding of space operational environment and corresponding mission user needs
* Previous experience performing space system engineering, development, manufacturing, and test
* Experience working hands-on with commercial and/or government satellite systems
* Experience developing satellite test and requirements verification plans
* Experience analyzing and developing contract data requirements lists and deliverables
* Experience working satellite structural, mechanical, thermal, dynamics, propulsion, mass properties

Desired skills:

* Five (10) years of relevant DoD and/or Industry work experience with SAP and/or SCI

* Experience with rapid build, qualification testing both at system and component level
* Experience with ACAT I/II level acquisition programs
* Experience leading satellite assembly, integration and testing for large space system
* Familiarization with US Space Force, Space Systems Command, and IC partners

Education

Desired Requirements:

* An applicable engineering degree from a program from an accredited course of study in engineering, preferably accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) though not required
* Relevant MS/ME degree

Clearance:

* Active TOP SECRET clearance with sensitive compartmentalized information (SCI) and special access program (SAP) eligibility (no less than 2 years total SAP and/or SCI environment experience, with 1-year total within last 5 years) and willingness to submit to a Counter-Intelligence polygraph
