Job description

MRI Technologies has an exciting opportunity for an Orion Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GN&C) Engineer on the JETS II contract at NASA Johnson Space Center. In this role, you will develop and evaluate safety-critical, human-rated GN&C flight software for NASA's Orion spacecraft, supporting the Artemis Program and future crewed deep space missions. You will be embedded with a collaborative team of engineers at the forefront of human spaceflight technology development.

A typical day involves developing and testing GN&C algorithms in MATLAB and Simulink, collaborating with NASA civil servants to refine flight software requirements, and reviewing simulation results from 6 DOF analysis tools. In the morning you may be updating orbital mechanics models or authoring requirements documentation; in the afternoon you could be integrating new trajectory optimization algorithms or presenting analysis findings to the project team. The work is intellectually challenging, mission-critical, and directly tied to sending astronauts safely beyond Earth orbit.

What We Are Looking For

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering or a related field, with a minimum of 1 year of experience in the field or a related area
  • Experience with Kalman filters
  • Experience with development of modeling spacecraft systems performance
  • Knowledge in the development of GN&C algorithms and spacecraft system analysis
  • Experience with development and analysis of 6 DOF algorithms and simulations
  • Experience with orbital mechanics and GN&C principles
  • Experience with design, verification, testing, and operation of GN&C software
  • Experience with LINUX, Python, MATLAB, Simulink, and C/C++
  • Experience with Git/GitLab version control
  • Experience with the development of space system requirements and documents
  • Ability to organize and prioritize tasks to meet deadlines and schedules with limited supervision
  • Excellent communication, documentation, and presentation skills
  • Ability to work in a team environment consisting of NASA civil servants and contractor employees
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office products

Preferences:

  • Knowledge of Artificial Intelligence and/or Machine Learning
  • Experience with safety-critical, human-rated embedded software development
  • Experience with object-oriented software development
  • Experience with Agile software development
  • Experience with spacecraft rendezvous, proximity operations, and docking
  • Familiarity with spacecraft docking systems
  • Working knowledge of NASA, JSC, and ISS standard practices and requirements (including safety)
  • Experience with NASA flight operations and procedures
  • Familiarity with NASA/JSC documentation databases and SharePoint sites
  • Experience with the NASA Trick simulation architecture and JEOD (JSC Engineering Orbital Dynamics)

This position has been posted at multiple levels. Depending on your experience and business needs, we may consider candidates at any level for which the position has been advertised.

Benefits and Perks

We offer a comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, vision, company paid life and disability insurance, paid time off, and 401(k). You'll also enjoy a 9/80 work schedule (every other Friday off, when applicable), an onsite cafeteria, and strong career development opportunities working alongside NASA's human spaceflight teams.

Proof of U.S. Citizenship or U.S. Permanent Residency is a requirement for this position. Must be able to complete a U.S. government background investigation.

MRI Technologies is an Equal Opportunity Employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, or protected veteran status.


As we are a Federal Contractor, most positions require the employee to obtain and maintain a U.S. Government background investigation. MRI also completes a pre-screening background check for anyone offered employment.
