Full Time Meo Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The Defense Systems Group (DSG) provides analysis-based decision support to senior leaders on spacearchitectures, policy and strategy, developmental planning, system of systems engineering, and threat reduction to help shape future space missions across the national security space enterprise. DSG is unique at Aerospace as it not only directly supports major customers, including Air Force Space Command, U.S. Strategic Command, Air Force Materiel Command, and senior leadership at the Pentagon, but also provides a broad range of services and support across the national space enterprise, maintaining vertical responsibilities with customersandhorizontal, matrixed responsibilities across the corporation.

As theSr.Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) Missile Warning, Tracking & Defense Space Vehicle & Communication SubsystemEngineer,you will play a pivotal role in the transition to a new Overhead Persistent Infrared (OPIR) MEO/LEO architecture.You'llguide USSF MEO acquisition on MW/MT/MDbyoverseeing multiple spacecraft subsystem design, development,integrationand test activities to ensure success of the incremental fielding strategy.You willprovideboth technical and programmatic supportfora successful Epoch 1 Initial Warfighting Capability MEO constellation andplanning forfollow-on Epoch increments.

Theselected candidate willbe requiredto work full-time on-site atLos Angeles Air Force Base, CA.

WhatYou'llBe Doing

• Deliver technicalexpertiseto the Government's SSC Resilient MW/MT/MD Acquisition Delta space segment program manager and staff

• EngageGovernment leaders, SETA contractors, development contractors, and Missile Warning/Tracking communitypartnersto align space vehicle development and CONOPS with operational needs

• Conduct technical reviewsof design artifacts supportingspace vehicle and bus subsystem development, rapid fielding, and on-orbit operations
