Develops and maintains integrated master schedules for national security space programs, integrating engineering, finance, supply chain, operations, resources, cost, and technical performance. The role monitors progress, manages schedule and performance metrics, facilitates cross-functional handoffs, supports workaround planning, and presents actionable planning information to management and customers. Responsibilities include earned value management, schedule risk assessment, baseline integration, and predictive analysis.

Performs electrical, electronic, and electromechanical parts engineering for strategic space systems. Responsibilities include selecting, qualifying, testing, and analyzing components; reviewing specifications and engineering drawings; evaluating suppliers and test reports; preparing technical documentation; supporting milestone reviews; and coordinating with design, manufacturing, quality, procurement, government agencies, and test laboratories. The role also addresses failure analysis, component derating, nuclear effects, survivability, and radiation-hardened applications.

Designs, develops, tests, documents, and debugs software for mission applications on an Agile team. Applies software engineering standards throughout the development lifecycle, resolves programming and system capability issues, and supports automated testing, continuous integration, and regression testing. The role uses C#, Angular, C++, DevOps, Kubernetes, microservices, and related development tools. Technical leadership and military communications satellite experience are desirable.

Leads the Wideband MILSATCOM Systems Engineering, Integration and Test team through satellite and ground-system design, development, production, integration, testing, and delivery. Manages requirements, system architecture, test planning, technical performance measures, verification and validation, risk, and technical reviews. Partners with program and engineering leadership while supervising personnel and supporting program execution across lifecycle phases.

Leads electrical component engineering for spacecraft and strategic systems, including selection, qualification, testing, failure analysis, supplier evaluation, and technical documentation for EEEE parts. Reviews drawings, specifications, source control documents, and test reports; coordinates with design, manufacturing, quality, procurement, suppliers, and government agencies. Supports nuclear survivability and radiation-hardened applications, resolves parts-management issues, participates in milestone reviews, and mentors junior engineers.

Designs and analyzes analog circuits for strategic missile avionics, including schematics, simulations, worst-case and parts-stress analyses. Develops test plans, procedures, reports, and certification deliverables while supporting component through system-level testing. Collaborates on hardware integration and product lifecycle activities, including CCA development, flight or motor controls, and design-for-manufacture and test. Requires a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering or related experience, 3+ years of professional experience, technical leadership capability, U.S. citizenship, and eligibility for a DoD Secret clearance.

Designs and develops electro-optical systems, including lasers, infrared devices, electronic circuitry, and optical components. Responsibilities include schematic capture, collaboration with PWB layout designers, PCB testing and fabrication, laser integration and control, and Worst Case Circuit Analysis. The role may also involve application analysis for military, scientific, medical, industrial, and commercial uses.

Designs, automates, deploys, and operates secure infrastructure for satellite ground systems. Responsibilities include IaC, configuration management, CI/CD, container security, virtualized environments, system integration, testing, troubleshooting, documentation, and improving DevSecOps baselines across operational environments. The role collaborates with software developers, test engineers, infrastructure specialists, and mission teams supporting highly reliable missile-warning systems.

Evaluate, select, and develop external CNC machining suppliers for complex 3- to 5-axis operations. Lead technical assessments, RFQ reviews, manufacturability analysis, cost and cycle-time evaluations, supplier kickoffs, and source-selection decisions. Partner with supply chain, quality, sourcing, and operations to resolve technical issues, improve supplier performance, reduce risk and cost, and ensure quality and delivery requirements. Apply advanced machining, CAD/CAM, GD&T, quality-control, project-management, and continuous-improvement expertise.
