Are you passionate about human space exploration, understanding the origins of the universe, and working with a passionate and diverse team to make a difference? If you are, we need you!
We need your talent, teamwork, and energy to help us achieve great things that inspire people all over the globe. We need you to bring creative ideas and diverse backgrounds to help us envision, shape, and deliver systems that will enable the exploration of space while benefiting people here on Earth. We are excited about what we do, and we need you on our team as we take on exciting challenges for NASA’s pursuits in deep space exploration. As NASA’s largest engineering solutions provider working together with NASA at centers across the United States.
We are seeking an experienced Logistian and SupportabilityEngineer to lead the development and implementation of the mission operationsfor the Multi-layerAcoustics&Conductive-gridSensor (MACS)Project to join the team with Intuitive Machines, a teammate company.The candidate will define and develop the infrastructure tobridge the real-time operations and engineering functions, ensuring efficient, and scientifically productivesystemoperations under EVAconditions. This person will be responsible for developing and executing processes for effectively executing mission operations rules, procedures, anomaly response, and systems trending for on- and off-console personnel to ensure effective coordination between the MACS engineering, science, and flight operations personnel.
Lead the development, implementation and execution of the engineering support required for effective MACS mission operations
Develop and maintain operations procedures, rules, checklists, alarms for nominal and off-nominal mission operations
Manage on- and off-console engineering support operations and ensure the engineering team is properly trained, equipped, and supported.
Develop a mechanism to provide high materiel availability of the operations facility
Serve as liaison between Engineering (design, test, systems) and Mission Operations : ensure engineering knowledge is identified and transitioned to ops products.
Monitor system performance, health, and trending : identify long-term degradations, aging effects, drift, resource depletion (e.g., power, thermal, communications).
Support mission replanning efforts : when anomalies or resource constraints / environmental conditions demand adjustments, manage trade-offs, coordinate with the operations team to adjust traverse plans, schedules, etc.
Lead anomaly investigation and resolution activities, including identification of root causes and implementation of corrective actions.
Effectively coordinate with Mission Operations, Science, Navigation, Driver, and Payload Operators to ensure operational decisions reflect engineering constraints.
Ensure operations products (alarms, procedures, operational documentation) accurately reflect the capabilities and limitations of the MACS.
Support pre-mission simulations and rehearsals.
Work with stakeholders on integration efforts
Identify and support the development of operations tools : command scripting, timeline tools, telemetry / telecommand systems, mission trending dashboards
