Jobs at METECS

Supports quality throughout the spaceflight hardware lifecycle, including design review, inspection planning, receiving, assembly, integration, testing, acceptance, configuration control, traceability, and documentation. Evaluates nonconformances, supports root-cause and corrective-action activities, contributes to Material Review Boards, and performs supplier quality activities such as audits and corrective actions. Participates in engineering, manufacturing, qualification, test-readiness, and acceptance reviews.

Leads systems engineering for spaceflight hardware across development, integration, verification, qualification, acceptance, and delivery. Defines requirements, interfaces, technical baselines, and verification methods while coordinating mechanical, electrical, quality, manufacturing, supplier, and test teams. Leads design trades, risk assessments, troubleshooting, anomaly resolution, and technical reviews. Coordinates with customers, contract manufacturers, suppliers, and test facilities to ensure hardware requirements are satisfied.

Maintain Windows, Linux, cloud, and NASA IT infrastructure across servers, workstations, and labs. Responsibilities include provisioning, monitoring, troubleshooting, patching, backups, disaster recovery, security remediation, documentation, user support, Active Directory administration, Microsoft 365 management, and AWS or Azure configuration. The role also supports DevOps infrastructure, testing, project delivery, and compliance initiatives.

Develop and maintain full-stack web applications and backend services across web, mobile, desktop, and cloud-native projects. Collaborate with developers and UX teams to design responsive customer-facing interfaces, integrate APIs, test across devices and browsers, troubleshoot defects, and improve development processes and technologies. The role requires modern web framework experience, database knowledge, RESTful API integration, Git proficiency, and strong analytical skills.

Manages the IT department, infrastructure, cloud environments, enterprise software, projects, budgets, policies, and support operations. Leads IT staff, resolves user issues, collaborates with leadership and project managers, and supports government and commercial compliance needs. Oversees security controls, risk mitigation, and ISO 27001 compliance while developing IT strategies and expanding the team and infrastructure.

Supports NASA human spaceflight programs by developing, integrating, simulating, and testing spacecraft guidance, navigation, and control flight software and hardware. Responsibilities include control algorithm development, six-degree-of-freedom modeling, Monte Carlo and stability analysis, hardware- and software-in-the-loop testing, telemetry analysis, anomaly troubleshooting, and technical documentation. The role collaborates with senior engineers and NASA customers on programs including Gateway, Orion, and the International Space Station.

Support NASA human spaceflight programs by developing software for spacecraft simulations and integrating with various systems. Requires strong problem-solving skills.

Develop, test, and maintain high-fidelity simulation software for NASA programs. Implement features from Git-managed work items, participate in code reviews, contribute to automated testing and CI/CD, and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to ensure accurate, robust aerospace and robotics simulations.

The role involves engineering and software development for simulation solutions, primarily for NASA and commercial sectors, utilizing various technologies.

Build and manage commercial business pipelines across energy, agriculture, and construction. Develop customer relationships, uncover technical needs, present simulation and software solutions, coordinate with engineers and subject-matter experts, contribute to proposals, attend industry events, maintain existing accounts, and report pipeline forecasts and strategy to leadership.

Develop software for spacecraft simulations, human-computer interfaces, flight computer data interfaces, custom development and integration tools, and environment simulations. The intern will support human spaceflight programs or internal research and development projects while troubleshooting and solving hands-on software problems.

Support development, verification, validation, and certification of flight software for NASA's SR-1 Freedom vehicle across the full SDLC. Requires hands-on debugging, embedded systems design, RTOS and avionics protocol familiarity, and on-site work at Johnson Space Center.

The Terramechanics Engineer will develop and apply modeling and simulation for lunar terrain interactions, utilizing physics-based approaches in a collaborative environment.
