Proficiency with spacecraft command and control systems, simulators, software test benches, and electrical ground support equipment (EGSE).
Demonstrated expertise in the full test lifecycle, including defining test strategies, test plans, and detailed test procedures.
Proficiency in MS Office tools and possess strong general computer skills.
Excellent presentation and communication skills are essential for coordinating across cross-functional teams.

security clearance or access with Polygraph is not required to be eligible for this position.
