  • Responsible for receiving (e.g. customer contract, MAR, TOR), clarifying, negotiating, decomposing, allocating (via subcontract SOWs, SMAS and support to EDTS) and ultimately verifying compliance to all assurance-related contractual customer requirements on a program, through delegation to a team of Systems Assurance subject matter experts.
  • Responsible for supporting the planning, developing and delivering all MA-related CDRLs or SDRLs per the SOW and contract on the program.

  • Supports identifying, evaluating, and reporting all risks to the “mission” (current and residual) on the program, including those that result from failures and deviations, to the prescribed risk threshold.
  • Must be capable of planning and establishing derived requirements with or without customer specifications for successful Mission Assurance efforts and tasks on space programs containing electronic, electrical, optical, software, and mechanical subsystems.

  • Taking a lead role in the identification, mitigation, and communication of Mission Assurance drivers and risk.
  • Formally present information and communicate effectively with Program Management, Executive Leadership and Customers.
  • Providing leadership for Failure Review Board activities.
  • Maintaining a collaborative and informational-based relationship with customer counterparts. 
  • Foster trusted advisor relationships with Program Management, other program team leads, and on-site customers as required.
  • Developing and maintaining metrics to measure levels of task activity progress and product quality.
  • Efforts will involve scheduling, budgeting, and milestone monitoring as well as reviewing technical reports to assure technical and contractual compliance.
  • Establish and maintain effective working relationships within the department, the Strategic Business Units, Strategic Support Units and the Company.   Interact appropriately with others to maintain a positive and productive work environment.
  • Maintain a regular and predictable work schedule.
  • Perform other duties as necessary.  

What You’ll Need

  • BS degree or higher in Engineering or a related technical field is required plus 12 or more years related experience. 
  • Each higher-level degree, i.e., Master’s Degree or Ph.D., may substitute for two years of experience. Related technical experience may be considered in lieu of education. Degree must be from a university, college, or school which is accredited by an agency recognized by the US Secretary of Education, US Department of Education.

Working Conditions

  • Work is performed in an office, laboratory, production floor, or clean room, outdoors or remote research environment.

  • May access other facilities in various weather conditions.
