This roles owns the day-to-day technical execution of our spacecraft component lines. This role is embedded in the Components team, supporting Attitude Determination and Control Systems and related components like star trackers, reaction wheels, control moment gyroscopes, torque rods, and sun sensors. This person will support all technical aspects of the product in active production with authority to lead technical development efforts and issue investigations and continuously enhance the technical maturity of the products.
Job Responsibility:
Coordinate and execute continuous production support activities including configuration management, production support including end-item-data-package (EIDP) generation and post-delivery troubleshooting
Contribute to test planning, qualification campaigns, and design validation testing
ensure test coverage aligns with system requirements
Identify and eliminate recurring quality issues
embed corrective actions into design and verification processes
Own sustainment efforts for flight and delivered hardware
track performance, identify trends, and implement long-term fixes
Work closely with Operations to identify production bottlenecks and opportunities to reduce lead time
Develop and maintain high-quality documentation including ICDs, verification matrices, test plans, and user guides
ensure engineering artifacts require no cleanup
Anticipate downstream integration issues and surface cross-functional risks early
resolve interface gaps before they escalate
Drive internal technical alignment by leading design reviews, risk burn-downs, and internal engineering meetings across mechanical, electrical, software and other engineering disciplines
Lead failure investigations for supported components and subsystems
drive root cause to closure and translate findings into design and test changes
Assist customer-facing discussions
