Description
Venturi Astrolab, Inc. (Astrolab) is pioneering new ways to explore and operate on distant planetary bodies. We are singularly focused on designing, building, and operating a fleet of multi-purpose commercial planetary rovers to extend and enhance humanity's presence in the solar system. We are seeking motivated, creative, and exceptional people to join our world-class team.
As a Human Factors Engineer supporting the NASA Lunar Terrain Vehicle Services (LTVS) within the Extravehicular Activity and Human Surface Mobility Program (EHP), you will champion the human-centered design of Astrolab's FLEX-LTV, which will be used by Artemis Crew to traverse and explore the lunar environment. You will work closely with cross-disciplinary teams including Systems Engineering & Integration (SEI), Subsystem Responsible Engineers (REs), Crew Accommodations, User Interface (UI) Designers, Simulation & Training, and Operators/Astronauts to ensure that human safety, performance, and usability are engrained in the LTV design. You will report to the Astrolab Human Systems Integration (HSI) Lead under the Program Management Office (PMO).
What you'll do:
  • Carry out the HSI Plan across the development lifecycle in support of a safe & efficient user experience (UX) for our astronauts
  • Work with our partners at Axiom Space to align the LTV design to suited crew capabilities & limitations while prioritizing safety, operational effectiveness, and crew time efficiency
  • Collaborate with engineers & designers to optimize for suited crew use of LTV displays, controls, and mechanical interfaces
  • Coordinate cross-disciplinary input & testing of LTV Crew Task Lighting to ensure the necessary visual access of all visual targets according to crew procedures and mission objectives
  • Utilize Figma and other rapid prototyping tools to produce interactive graphical user interface (GUI) wireframes and mockups in alignment with Artemis GUI standards and commonality
  • Conduct human factors engineering analyses and evaluations (e.g., Task Analysis (TA), Human Error Analysis (HEA), Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) Testing, Crew Operational Loads, Risk Assessments, etc.) and process findings for design and/or operational impacts
  • Support simulation & training events with astronauts and representative participants using Astrolab test artifacts located at Odyssey Space Research and the Texas A&M Space Institute
  • Manage, adjudicate, and track the flow of human factors design feedback/concerns from ticket creation through design unit implementation in compliance with human systems requirements
  • Assist SEI efforts in executing the Verification, Validation, & Certification Plan as it pertains to the closure of human systems requirements and total-system human-rating
  • Inform and attend cadenced discussions with NASA to share LTV development progress and review key decisions/changes
  • Update and maintain technical documentation, including contractual HSI deliverables to NASA

What you'll bring:
Basic Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Human Factors, Human-Computer Interaction, Human-Centered Design, Ergonomics, Biomechanics, Psychology, Industrial Design, or a related field
  • 2+ years of experience in human factors engineering, human systems integration, or UI/UX development, including user research and usability testing
  • Knowledge of human factors standards such as NASA-STD-3001, MIL-STD-1472, FAA HF-STD-001, or similar industry standards
  • Knowledge of systems engineering or project management processes, tools, and methodologies
  • Graduate degree in Human Factors, Human-Computer Interaction, Human-Centered Design, Ergonomics, Biomechanics, Psychology, Industrial Design, or a related field
  • Experience in human spaceflight or another regulated or safety-critical industry
  • Experience in space architecture, bioastronautics, aerospace physiology, optical engineering, vehicle cabin or interior development, or extreme environment analogs
  • Knowledge of extravehicular activity (EVA) systems, including pressurized suits, EVA tools, or related technologies
  • Knowledge of design thinking, rapid prototyping, or iterative product development methodologies

Benefits and Perks
  • Join a team of best-in-class engineers building the foundation of planetary surface exploration
