Original job description

The Aerospace Corporation is the trusted partner to the nation’s space programs, solving the hardest problems and providing unmatched technical expertise. As the operator of a federally funded research and development center (FFRDC), we are broadly engaged across all aspects of space - delivering innovative solutions that span satellite, launch, ground, and cyber systems for defense, civil and commercial customers. When you join our team, you’ll be part of a special collection of problem solvers, thought leaders, and innovators. Join us and take your place in space.

The National Systems Group serves as the technical advisor to the Intelligence Community and its mission partners involved in the collection and distribution of national and tactical intelligence, including electronics programs, advanced technologies, ground and communications, imagery programs, and systems engineering and launch.

Directorate E provides on-site support within multiple government program offices in the oversight and management of a complex new national security satellite system architecture. Within Directorate E, Aerospace provides acquisition, mission assurance, analytic, and systems engineering support. The Acquisition Programs team provides acquisition and subject matter expertise in support of a major customer in the National Security Space portfolio.

In this position you will coordinate Aerospace activities across multiple technical areas to support the development, manufacturing, integration, test, and evaluation of end-to-end system performance.

This full-time position requires 100% onsite work in Chantilly, VA.

What You’ll Be Doing

Provide Aerospace technical leadership to the development and execution of an integrated space system, including multi-segment testing, on-orbit performance, and systems engineering processes.
Lead coordination of matrixed, cross-program Aerospace support to develop joint recommendations with program stakeholders and deliver impactful Aerospace products that advise government customers on system risks and opportunities.
Independently assess and identify risks during system development, integration and test activities and lead Aerospace subject matter experts to deliver recommendations to the customer.
Collaborate and communicate frequently with government customers, SETA contractors, and development contractors to meet mission needs.
Support launch operations, mission management, and mission processing activities.
Act as a senior mentor to team members, providing guidance to staff in both technical duties and program office responsibilities.

What You Need to be Successful: Project Engineer – Acquisition and Systems Engineering

Minimum Requirements:

Bachelor’s degree in engineering, science, mathematics, or a related discipline
6 or more years of progressively more responsible experience
Experience in a program office role coordinating and leading matrixed technical teams across multiple disciplines
Ability to work effectively in a multidisciplinary team comprised of government, SETA, and Aerospace personnel
Ability to work closely and cooperatively with contractor personnel
Willingness to travel to Aerospace and CONUS contractor facilities approximately once per month
This position requires a current and active TS/SCI security clearance and polygraph, which is issued by the U.S. government. U.S. citizenship is required to obtain a security clearance

In addition to the above, the minimum requirements for the Senior Project Engineer – Acquisition and Systems Engineering requires the following:

10 or more years of progressively more responsible experience
Proven experience working with multidisciplinary teams comprised of government, SETA, and Aerospace personnel

How You Can Stand Out

It would be impressive if you have one or more of these:

Advanced degree in engineering, science, mathematics, or a related discipline
Experience with electro-optical satellites or other complex system acquisitions
Experience with structural analysis, structural test, and mechanical systems
Experience providing direct engineering support to the development of space system, or similarly complex, hardware
Experience with space system mission assurance and standards tailoring
Knowledge of ETG capabilities and demonstrated interaction with ETG personnel
