We are launching people to the Moon and Mars. If you want to be part of this amazing mission and enjoy working in a great team environment, we would love to have you as part of our team that is making history, today. It takes big ideas and determination to take NASA's vision and make it reality. That's what we do every day.
nnThe COMET contract provides overall management and implementation of ground systems capabilities, flight hardware processing, and launch operations at NASA's Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida. These tasks will support the International Space Station, Ground Systems Development and Operations, and the Space Launch System, Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle, and Launch Services programs.
nnThe Ground Cooling Systems (GCS) group supports the Spaceflight Processing Department's engineering function. They provide critical cooling to the Orion Crew Module during powered operations to ensure components operate at the required temperature. GCS is responsible for maintaining all the ground equipment required to support the Vehicle during processing operations at multiple facilities across the Kennedy Space Center Launch Complex.
nnnResponsibilities
nAreas of responsibility include, but are not limited to:
n• Generate and coordinate maintenance activities, including special testing procedures required to maintain equipment and systems within operating parameters.
n• Conduct system testing, troubleshoot equipment failures and analyze data, technical drawings, and schematics to resolve anomalies and provide written corrective action.
n• Attain intensive system certifications for remote and console-based operations, required for supporting the GCS console in the firing room during launch operations.
n• Duties include technical oversight of new installations and construction activities to validate compliance with contract documents, particularly in the field of HVAC systems to assure ASHRAE codes are being adhered to.
n• Create and execute component and subsystem level verification and validation plans to ensure performance to requirements. Depending on the project type, this can vary from conceptual design to revisions to existing designs and modifications to existing structures or Ground Support Equipment (GSE).
n• Interface with client representatives and manage completion of tasks on schedule and within budget to the customer's satisfaction.
n• Assure that facilities operate in a safe and appropriate manner and comply with all federal, state and local codes/regulations.
