Hall, Arcjet, and Gridded Ion Thruster propulsion systems are key components of satellites used by our military, NASA, and commercial satellite service providers. Missions include interplanetary exploration, orbit-transfer, and orbit maintenance for a wide range of spacecraft. Company is the premier supplier of these enabling propulsion systems. The successful candidate will help assure the success of these space missions through development, qualification, and production of Hall, Arcjet, Ion, or other EP thrusters. The candidate will demonstrate attention to detail and the highest standards of quality assurance for the production of mission critical hardware. The successful candidate will also be a key resource in the design, development and testing of new electric propulsion products.
Typical duties will include assisting the program manager in manufacturing and delivering flight hardware, guiding integrated product development teams, and leading product proposals.
Additional duties will include performing technical analyses, conceptualizing new product designs, establishing system requirements and specifications, planning and conducting test and product verification activities, analyzing test data, developing new business relationships, and generating customer presentations.
The following is an approximate split of typical duties:
70% - Lead technical activities on major programs. Perform tasks, delegate tasks and make decisions required to design, analyze, build and test electrical propulsion thrusters and thruster systems. Verify Company's products are in compliance with customer requirements. Demonstrate to our customers that Company is the best value supplier for their propulsion needs.
20% - Support proposal activities and manage internal research and development efforts as assigned.
10% - Key contributor on investigations, driving to closure rapidly and rigorously while applying appropriate resources and personnel in a cost-effective manner.
