    Resolve and analyze manufacturing and test discrepancies, while interfacing with the quality team (resolving issues for design, fabrication, and assembly).

    Support component level testing such as proof and leak, fluid flow and functional checkouts.


    Work closely with development and design engineers, internal machine shops and external vendors to make parts that are designed for manufacturability.

    Set goals and objectives for team members for the achievement of operational results.

    Coach and support professional development of direct reports.


    BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

    2 years of experience leading a team of 3+ individuals either as a project leader OR as direct reports.

    Experience with spacecraft or aircraft propulsion/environmental control systems.

    Experience with fluid or gas handling systems.

    Knowledge of principles of compressible and incompressible flow, thermodynamics, thermochemistry, mechanics, materials and electrical circuits.

    Experience with instrumentation and data acquisition, including familiarity with LabVIEW software.


    ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
    Must be available to work long hours and weekends as needed.


    ITAR REQUIREMENTS:
    To conform to U.S. Government space technology export regulations, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) you must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
