Overview
We have an exciting opportunity for a
Propulsion Engineer - Rocket Components
to join the team. This position supports NASA’s pursuits in deep space exploration as part of a collaboration with NASA centers across the United States. The role involves bringing creative ideas and diverse backgrounds to envision, shape, and deliver systems for space exploration while benefiting people on Earth. We are actively searching for qualified candidates for this potential opening; however, there is no assurance at this time when the position will be finalized and opened. We are proceeding with identifying qualified candidates and conducting interviews. Responsibilities
Reports NASA JSC EP4 Branch Extensive knowledge in component and system certification and the impacts of component design and operating environment on certification Provides support to national and international customers for Gateway and International Space, visiting vehicles, and Commercial Crew customers Extensive knowledge in the design and development of major elements of ground test and space flight systems required to demonstrate the utilization of propulsion and fluid systems Writes technical and progress reports covering assigned tasks which are made available to other technical groups and agencies Understands Fluid Systems Resolves unique or novel problems, conditions, and issues as related to Propulsion Subsystems Provide support for flight Anomaly Resolution review and In-Flight Investigation review, capable of solving propulsion questions with low levels of information Perform other duties as required Qualifications
Typically requires a bachelor’s degree in Engineering and a minimum of 2-5 years of experience in the field or in a related area Self-starting individual that does not require frequent significant direction/instruction. Must be an integral part of the NASA propulsion team, able to provide independent technical review assessments Experience level: 2 years (min) in relevant engineering discipline Assists Boeing team lead with day-to-day team activities such as meeting coverage and technical reviews Propulsion Team Tracker: Review, track and present weekly status on all Prop-related pending document reviews and actions (Flight Specific), including Acceptance Data Packages (ADPs), Qual Reports, ECB CRs, PMRBs, VCN, Variances, PAAs, Boeing NCRs, Hazard Reports/STRBs, Software Changes, and all Action Items needed to certify CST-100 for flight; coordinate/track NASA Prop team reviews of all required assigned documents and actions Coordinate with NASA Test & Verification lead on all required NASA prop team document reviews and actions (e.g., via JIRA system) Prop Team POC for all CST-100 Propulsion PAAs and PAA Forum, including changes/creation/modifications of PAAs Serve as POC for software-related propulsion changes: maintain a current listing of all propulsion-related software changes and evaluate or delegate evaluation prior to each flight Maintain close coordination with NASA Software team and track all assigned actions (e.g., JIRA system) Serve as NASA Prop team POC for propulsion Hazard Reports reviews and STRB support As part of CFT COFR, ensure all closure artifacts for Propulsion Hazard Report Controls and Verifications meet the intent of the requirements OMAC ATP hotfire video reviews for characterization of emissions Support mission Prop Console operations, both simulations and flight support; generate/maintain Console Smart Book; conduct flight data review (JMEWs) Preferences
Propulsion experience (preferred) or fluid systems experience Flight program experience Maintain an up-to-date schedule for ongoing projects (examples: SM2 Prop Harvesting at WSTF, ATP Hot Fire at WSTF, OMAC Filter Testing at MSFC, RCS Thruster dQual and related testing driven by In-Flight Anomalies) Flight data review via MATLAB scripts (MATLAB coding capability) CAD modeling capability (e.g., Creo) Analytical modeling capability/experience (EASY5, SINDA/FLUENT, ANSYS/FEA) Why Join Our Team?
Excellent personal and professional career growth 9/80 work schedule (every other Friday off), when applicable Onsite cafeteria (breakfast & lunch) Much, much more Other Information
Proof of U.S. Citizenship or US Permanent Residency may be a requirement for this position. Must be able to complete a U.S. government background investigation. Management has the prerogative to select at any level for which the position is advertised.
