Responsibilities include fluid systems, propellant storage and transfer, structural hardware, pressure analysis, CAD documentation, vendor oversight, acceptance testing, safety compliance, permitting, hazard analyses, and configuration control. The role requires hands-on expertise with toxic propellants, pressure systems, test facility infrastructure, and aerospace or defense applications.

Leads propulsion analysis for liquid rocket engines and thrusters, developing engine cycle, injector, combustion stability, CFD, thermal-fluid, and regenerative cooling models. Partners with hardware designers and suppliers to validate models against hot-fire tests, guides design decisions, builds lightweight analysis tools, establishes analytical standards, and mentors propulsion engineers. The role supports development from concept through qualification and requires deep expertise in propulsion modeling and combustion dynamics.

Lead and support verification and validation testing for aerospace avionics components and subsystems. Responsibilities include board bring-up, hardware debugging, functional and electrical testing, automated test development, acceptance and environmental qualification testing, test data analysis, requirements traceability, documentation, and participation in technical reviews. Collaborate with hardware, software, and design teams to ensure components meet aerospace performance, reliability, and qualification standards.

Lead end-to-end motor control development for spacecraft mechanisms, including control algorithms, embedded firmware, drive electronics, architecture, testing, qualification, and on-orbit validation. The role supports gimbals, solar array drives, deployment mechanisms, and other precision actuation systems. Responsibilities include technical trade studies, component selection, spacecraft integration, troubleshooting, documentation, and mentoring while collaborating with mechanisms, avionics, GNC, and test teams.

Leads the design, electromagnetic modeling, testing, integration, and delivery of space-based antennas and RF front-end hardware. Performs full-wave simulations, antenna and array optimization, RF trade studies, spacecraft electromagnetic compatibility analysis, and measurement correlation. Collaborates cross-functionally on packaging, thermal, structural, manufacturing, and test challenges; leads technical reviews, mentors engineers, develops verification processes, and supports customer engagements. Requires deep antenna/RF expertise, advanced EM simulation skills, and experience taking complex engineering efforts from concept through qualification.

Lead avionics hardware and software integration, verification, validation, and system-level testing across spacecraft production and test platforms. Develop test plans, scripts, automation, and requirements traceability; troubleshoot hardware, software, and embedded systems; analyze results; and document compliance with aerospace standards. Collaborate across engineering teams and participate in design and test readiness reviews to ensure avionics flight readiness.

Design, analyze, document, build, integrate, and test precision motor-driven spacecraft mechanisms. Responsibilities include CAD design, stress and tolerance analysis, drivetrain component integration, engineering drawings, fabrication support, environmental testing, troubleshooting, and collaboration with avionics, motor control, and systems engineering teams.

Manages information assurance for designated information systems and leads cybersecurity teams across multiple security environments. Oversees cybersecurity policies, compliance, operations, awareness, risk assessments, safeguards, and incident communications. Advises leadership and coordinates with internal stakeholders, customers, and government representatives. Provides cybersecurity training, mentorship, briefings, and operational guidance while ensuring alignment with business objectives and government compliance requirements.

Develop and govern Cameo-based SysML models for space and missile defense systems. Lead requirements traceability, architecture, interfaces, verification and validation modeling, model integration, and digital thread development.
