These missions includes all phases of vehicle preparation (development, integration, and test), launch operations, ascent, lunar insertion, Lunar operations and Crew and vehicle return to earth.
The successful candidate will\:
Work closely with the customer’s Imagery discipline, Level II EDLEs and the Integrated Avionics and Software Lead Engineer assisting with the development and deployment of SLS and HLS Imagery hardware and software.Be responsible for insight into the technical operations of multiple imagery sub-systems and as such, must maintain a working technical knowledge of each sub-system and how each will integrate into the overall operation of the vehicle to ensure meeting safety and performance parameters.
Provide development, integration, and testing insight into the SLS and HLS Level III Imagery discipline avionics suppliers for multiple imagery devices.
Assist in program coordination within the Space Systems Department. Duties may include, but not be limited to coordinating scheduling, coordinating meetings, tracking action items, assisting in planning activities, supporting trade studies, performing systems analyses, supporting integrated avionics hardware/software design solutions and test, making technical risk management inputs, coordinating technical performance measures, supporting reviews, working groups and boards, and providing periodic status inputs to project and ES Department management.
Support the SLS and HLS Level II Imagery Disciplines in mentoring, program cost and schedule projections, and availability and application of advanced technologies, concept and requirements definitions, and systems engineering as they apply to the imagery discipline. Support concept and requirements definition, program cost and schedule projections, acquisition planning, systems development and adaptation, and alternatives analysis.
Attend Program and Element reviews and meetings and prepare comments, observations, and recommendations on approaches to implement designs, architectures, and plans from a programmatic and technical perspective on meeting content.
Serve on internal independent, key design, and special review teams as identified by the SLS and HLS imagery disciplines. This includes post review close-out, participation in integrated baseline review activities, participation in preparation, assessment and checkpoint activities leading up to the Imagery Functional Configuration Audits and vehicle Physical Configuration Audits Design Certification Reviews.
Provide insight into imagery architectures, interfaces, software, and validation planning including all aspects of design, development, integration, and test to provide advice and recommendations relative to programmatic planning, schedules, risk & analyses to program decision makers. Coordinate and interface with the Exploration Ground Systems Development Office (KSC Program), Orion (JSC Program), Secondary Payloads and Exploration Upper Stage (both MSFC Projects) and advise SLS and HLS program management on concepts and plans in support of the Space Launch System and Human Lander imagery.
Interact with senior project personnel at MSFC, Prime Contractors, other NASA Centers, DoD, Industry, and Academia and work closely with MSFC Engineering to ensure a unified and consistent approach across the imagery avionics integration is achieved.
Travel is not expected to exceed ten (10) percent of the successful candidate’s time.
Provide periodic status inputs to ASED and Customer Project and Engineering management.
The successful candidate will draw upon all necessary contractor organizations supporting the development and deployment of imagery systems as appropriate to complete this task.
