  • Lead and coordinate the design, development, integration, testing, and overall lifecycle management of GN&C hardware components and systems
  • Coordinate the design of sensor architecture and hardware configurations through design studies and sensor performance trade-offs
  • Perform and guide testing and analysis of sensor hardware, including laboratory and flight testing, shock/vibration, thermal vacuum, and radiation environments, to validate top-level system specifications and requirements and establish sensor performance specifications
  • Support the design, procurement, fabrication, test and characterization of protype hardware
  • Support the development and execution of component-level test programs, including sensor characterization, sensor modeling, and integrated on-vehicle testing
  • Support hardware-in-the-loop testing, on-vehicle functional testing, and flight testing
  • Routinely collaborate with manufacturing operations, supply chain, and other teams within the company to ensure smooth execution of development, integration, and test efforts
  • Define, deploy, and enhance technical and programmatic processes as needed to ensure efficient team operations and timely deliverables in support of ambitious program objectives

Requirements

  • B.S. in Physics, Electrical, Mechanical, or Aerospace engineering or related areas of study
  • 10+ years of related experience with high-reliability electro-mechanical, electro-optical, or RF sensors and components for harsh and/or highly regulated environments including space, military, or automotive industries
  • Knowledge of multiple GN&C sensors, their related system components (inertial sensors, optical sensors, lenses, laser sources, RF or image processing electronics, etc.) and their characterization
  • Demonstrated experience in the development, prototyping, testing, and calibration of sensors for aerospace, military, automotive, medical, or precision robotics applications
  • Demonstrated experience in component procurement, integration, and test support
  • Demonstrated experience in test and verification of navigation or related sensors, actuators, supporting electronics and mechanical assemblies
  • Hands-on experience and proven ability to work with test, flight, and safety-critical hardware
  • Familiarity with documentation and product lifecycle management tools such as Windchill, Teamcenter, or similar
  • Familiarity with requirements management tools such as DOORS, Jama Connect, or similar
  • Knowledge of design and construction standards for high reliability electronics and mechanical components (NASA, MIL-STD, IEEE, IPC, etc.)
  • Experience with analytical and scripting tools such as Matlab, LabView, or Python
  • Experience in product schedule, cost, delivery, and supplier management
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to work collaboratively in a fast paced, dynamic work environment
