You may serve as technical authority across multiple programs while coordinating requirements, interfaces, testing, and operations support.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Translate mission goals into electric propulsion system requirements
  • Analyze power, thermal, mass, reliability, and contamination budgets
  • Define thruster, PPU, feed-system, and control interfaces
  • Develop verification plans, test matrices, and validation procedures
  • Oversee hardware-in-the-loop and thrust-stand testing
Requirements:
  • Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace, or Physics
  • 10+ years of electrical propulsion experience on LEO/MEO platforms
