• Develop and update semi-empirical and theoretical models of processes relevant to spacecraft natural and induced environments

• Analyze/model molecular and particulate contamination sources, including lunar dust, and transport from materials outgassing, vacuum venting, and rocket engine and thruster pluming processes onto spacecraft, elements, and payloads

• Analyze optical property impacts from molecular and particulate contamination, including lunar dust, and exposure to orbital and lunar surface environments (e.g., to ultraviolet radiation, ionizing radiation, and atomic oxygen)

• Analyze/model plasma effects, spacecraft charging, radiation transport and effects on hardware

• Assess compatibility of spacecraft hardware with natural and induced space environments

• Provide systems engineering support in space environments requirements and verification plan development as well as requirement and verification activities throughout the life of a program

• Conduct systems engineering trade studies to identify potential risks and mitigations, evaluate induced environmental hazards between vehicles, and participate in hazard/risk reviews

• Participate in programmatic milestone reviews

• Perform other duties as required

• Experience with hypergolic and Hall Effect thrusters' operation as well as associated plume characteristics

• Experience with NASA and industry standards relating to contamination control and experimental characterization of materials outgassing (e.g., ASTM E1559)

• Knowledge of natural and induced space environments and related materials effects, including thermal vacuum stability, radiation (ionizing and UV), plasma charging, atomic oxygen, thermal cycling)
