Ability to create and interpret engineering documentation including drawings, P&ID schematics and test data.
Able to prioritize and execute tasks in a high pressure fast-paced environment
Ability to self-motivate and take the initiative to ensure your systems are functional and operating at peak performance
Demonstrated leadership experience in a fast paced environment with the ability to think critically under pressure.
Ability to convey complex technical information clearly and concisely to technical and non-technical audiences.
Comfortable working in launch site environments with field testing, lifting equipment, and hazardous materials.
Willingness to support off-hour shifts during launch operations (nights/weekends as needed).
Basic working knowledge of standards and regulations (ASME, AWS, AISC, AFSPCMAN 91-710, NASA-STD-5005, GSFC-STD-8009, etc.).
Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering or related engineering discipline.

Desired Skills, Experience, and Education:

Previous experience with fluids and pneumatics systems in a test or project environment with demonstrated ability to troubleshoot and problem solve.
Experience with cryogenic liquid systems.
Experience with launch vehicle integration, transportation and systems validation.
Experience with FEA software (e.g., ANSYS, FEMAP, Siemens NX Nastran) and ability to verify results with hand calculations.
Experience with hazard and risk analysis tools (i.e., FMEA, FMECA, FHA, HAZOP, etc.).
Familiarity with data acquisition and control methods, and data analysis tools.
Demonstrated experience with standards and regulations (ASME, AWS, AISC, AFSPCMAN 91-710, NASA-STD-5005, GSFC-STD-8009, etc.).
