Overview
Control Electronic and Testing of Microsystems for Highly Mass-constrained Planetary Missions Organization: NASA Postdoctoral Program / NASA / Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) Reference Code
0259-NPP-NOV25-JPL-TechDev How To Apply
All applications must be submitted in Zintellect. Please visit the NASA Postdoctoral Program website for application instructions and requirements: How to Apply | NASA Postdoctoral Program (orau.org) A complete application to the NASA Postdoctoral Program includes: Research proposal Three letters of recommendation Official doctoral transcript documents Deadline
Application Deadline: 11/1/2025 6:00:59 PM Eastern Time Zone Description
The NASA Postdoctoral Program (NPP) offers unique research opportunities to highly-talented scientists to engage in ongoing NASA research projects at a NASA Center, NASA Headquarters, or at a NASA-affiliated research institute. These one- to three-year fellowships are competitive and are designed to advance NASA’s missions in space science, Earth science, aeronautics, space operations, exploration systems, and astrobiology. Project Context
JPL requires development and testing of highly miniature control electronics for instruments for highly mass-constrained planetary missions. The fellow should study the pathways to readying a miniature multi-functional instrument with high science value, focusing on the development of flight-like electronics and mechanisms that make use of state-of-the-art components with an identifiable path to flight to support near-term needs. Goals for the entire instrument include: the NASA Fellow will work with a team of scientists and engineers, gain experience in instrument systems engineering, publish technical papers, and emerge as a leader in instrument system miniaturization.
