This position is located at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) in Greenbelt, MD. OSAM-1 is a robotic servicing mission designed to refuel a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite. It contains 3 elements: the Flight Element comprised of the OSAM-1 Servicing Vehicle (RSV) and development testbeds, the Ground Element comprised of the systems required to conduct RSV operations and the supporting networks and facilities, and the Launch Element comprised of the Launch Vehicle and supporting facilities and services. NExIS is responsible for the design, engineering, development, test, and operations of the OSAM-1 Mission through an integrated team at GSFC. The Servicing Payload design, development and RSV integration will be conducted at GSFC. JOB DESCRIPTION: The engineer will execute the system-level build, testing, modification, and operation of the several testbeds associated with OSAM-1. Job duties include:- Documents the Testbed Configuration. Ensures that the Testbed configurations will support tests as defined in test documentation and certifies the Testbed for use .
- Supports Testbed Electrical Engineers (EEs) work in writing Testbed safe-to-mates/sub-system Functionals/Electrical Interconnect Diagrams/Grounding efforts.
- Supports providing updates to the weekly status of on-site testbeds electrical efforts.
- Documents NASA processes through WOA writing.
- Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, or closely related field, with 5+ years of related experience, or equivalent combination of education and experience.
- Understanding and application of standard principles, theories, concepts and techniques in engineering of aerospace systems.
- Experience with hardware integration and test, system verification and validation, and/or electrical engineering, preferably in the aerospace industry.
- Experience in authoring and maintaining technical documentation.
- Proficiency in resolving technical and schedule issues in order to ensure that deliverables are met on schedule.
- Ability to obtain/maintain NASA Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) certification (GSFC-SH-ESDCO300 300-PG-8730.6.1A). English proficiency is required to successfully complete the required training and pass testing (written and/or hands-on) to obtain NASA ESD certification .
- Experience working with electrical testbed hardware and/or performing flight or GSE testing using testbed systems.
