Amentum
Propulsion Systems Analyst
Amentum Space Exploration Division (ASED) is comprised of 9 companies and is located at Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) in Huntsville, AL. ASED has been a primary contractor for NASA since 1989 and supports marquee NASA programs, including the Space Launch System, International Space Station, space optics fabrication, earth and space sciences and advanced propulsion system development. As a partner in NASA's next generation of space exploration, our jobs are literally history in the making. This position will provide Propulsion Systems Analysis support. As a key member of the Engine Systems Analysis team, primary duties for the Propulsion Systems Analyst will include: Support the planning, design, development, and testing of liquid propulsion systems for various research and development programs. Develop steady state and transient engine models to support various NASA programs. Assess expected engine performance throughout the various stages of the development process. Conduct high-fidelity modeling and simulation of liquid propulsion systems to include transient analyses of start, shutdown, and throttling of rocket engines. Size fluid systems for liquid propulsion systems. Create/utilize stability analysis tools to assess engine stability from ROCETS model results. Attend test readiness meetings and pre- and post-test data reviews. Prepare and present material to review boards. Coordinate, develop, and present technical materials related to engine system performance and testing in support of design milestone reviews and anomaly investigations. Prepare technical assessments in areas of liquid propulsions system/subsystem sizing and performance. Participate in relevant trade teams. Identify and pursue resolution of issues. Identify and document customer objectives and product requirements. Perform system hazard analyses, risk assessments, root cause analyses, and failure investigations. Other duties as assigned. Requires travel in the domestic USA ( Education requirements are a BS plus 10 years of experience, or MS plus 8 years of experience in Aerospace, Mechanical, or related engineering field from an ABET-accredited university. Qualifications include: In-depth understanding of pump-fed, liquid rocket engine cycles and operation either through education or work experience. Experience with the use of propulsion analysis tools such as ROCETS, MATLAB, FORTRAN, etc. Exhibited capability to plan and perform systems engineering and analysis tasks independently and as part of a team. ASET offers a partnership in which you can grow personally and professionally within a framework of strong leadership, competitive compensation, and rewarding career paths. Come join our team on the Engineering Services and Science Capability Augmentation (ESSCA) contract whose work is destined to have a long-range effect on future generations!
