Participate in technical meetings, design reviews, and readiness assessments, documenting observations and findings. Monitor program risks, issues, and action items, and provide objective assessments while escalating concerns to NASA leads as appropriate. Participate in a technical discipline rotation program to develop exposure across systems engineering functions and understand end-to-end spacecraft development processes. Develop Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) models using enterprise tools to identify strategic gaps in DSL missions and support structured analysis and solutions. Support spacecraft contamination analysis efforts, including evaluation of lunar regolith impacts and associated mitigation considerations. Engage directly with NASA customers, contractors, and spacecraft providers in support of technical exchanges and program reviews. Travel as required in support of technical reviews and mission-related activities. Perform other duties as assigned.

Required Qualifications:

B.S. degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related engineering discipline from an accredited institution.
