    • Ability to analyze system performance, telemetry, trends, and anomalies across instruments and spacecraft subsystems.
    • Experience with system integration and test (I&T), anomaly resolution, and operational risk assessment.
    • Knowledge of validation and matchup methodologies for Earth science data products is a strong plus.
    • Ability to assess trade studies and impacts across mission elements.
