  • Potentially be on call to cover shifts when anticipated higher days of operations or team members are unavailable/on scheduled vacation
  • Must have at least 10 years of professional years of experience supporting projects as an Operations Research Analyst but preferably in support of the FAA/NASA or at least the federal government
  • Must have a Bachelor of Science Degree in engineering (e.g. Engineering, Operations Research, Statistics, Computer Science, Mathematics) or related field
