Emirates flight attendant Jobs in Colorado Springs, CO

The Aerospace Corporation is the trusted partner to the nation's space programs, solving the hardest problems and providing unmatched technical expertise. As the operator of a federally funded research and development center (FFRDC), we are broadly engaged across all aspects of space- delivering innovative solutions that span satellite, launch, ground, and cyber systems for defense, civil and commercial customers. When you join our team, you'll be part of a special collection of problem solvers, thought leaders, and innovators. Join us and take your place in space.

The Enterprise Effects Division (EED) drives integration of Aerospace's strategic capabilities across the national space enterprise. The division leverages a broad array of engineering disciplines against a diverse and dynamic portfolio of programs, customers, and national challenges. EED spans the capability lifecycle from concept and architecture design to performance assessment to application of space and space-enabled capabilities.

As a core component of EED, the Earth Orbit Flight Dynamics Department (EOFDD) provides flight mechanics expertise for launch vehicles and space vehicles. Relevant skills include orbital mechanics, astrodynamics, trajectory design and optimization, and atmospheric flight modeling and simulation. We are looking for an Engineering Specialist / Senior Engineering Specialist to join the EOFDD team . The selected candidate will provide expertise for a wide range of customer flight mechanics needs, supporting both analysis and research and development requests. The work will require candidates to provide deep technical solutions while also collaborating with engineering partners to facilitate integrated solutions for our customers' hardest problems. Customers will include defense, intelligence, and civil and commercial organizations.

Engineering Specialists typically conduct specialized technical studies and are expected to be thought leaders for new efforts and customer relationships. They have opportunities to construct and lead technical teams to meet customer needs and advance department technical and strategic objectives. They are expected to provide innovation and initiative while providing effective communication to customers.

Senior Engineering Specialists perform the functions of an Engineering Specialist with additional depth and expectations for the role. They typically serve as senior technical authority, consultant, primary investigator, or team leader on one or more projects. They lead or organize interfaces between customers' and Aerospace technical and management staff, coordinate large-scale technical efforts across program / project lines, and mentor and serve as role models for junior staff.
