What is a NASA contractor?

A NASA contractor job refers to a position with a private company or organization that has a contract with NASA to provide goods, services, or expertise. Contractors work in various fields such as engineering, IT, research, and project management to support NASA's missions. Unlike NASA employees, contractors are hired by independent companies but often work alongside NASA personnel. These jobs may be located at NASA centers or company offices and can vary in duration based on contract terms.

What does a NASA contractor do?

As a NASA Contractor, you may work on a wide range of projects including spacecraft design, mission analysis, software development, or research in support of ongoing NASA missions. Daily responsibilities can include collaborating with NASA engineers and scientists, attending project meetings, writing technical documentation, and ensuring adherence to strict quality and compliance standards. Contractors often work in a team-oriented environment where timely communication and adaptability are crucial. Project assignments can vary in duration and focus, providing exposure to cutting-edge technology and opportunities to expand your expertise within the space and aerospace sector.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a NASA contractor?

To thrive as a NASA Contractor, you typically need a solid background in science, engineering, or technology, often supported by a relevant degree and professional experience in the aerospace or related industries. Familiarity with industry-specific tools such as CAD software, project management systems, and possibly security clearances (ITAR, DoD clearance) is valuable. Strong communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills help in working within multidisciplinary teams and meeting complex project goals. These capabilities are essential to ensure the highest levels of performance, compliance, and innovation in NASA's demanding and mission-critical projects.

The primary function of an EPOC is to provide environmental compliance guidance and consultation to the various construction projects implemented by several NASA KSC organizations including NASA Construction of Facilities (CoF), NASA Local Authority Institutional Projects, and the NASA Exploration Ground Systems (EGS) program. You will work closely with the contractors who are awarded these projects for construction. An effective EPOC demonstrates a general understanding and ability to interpret environmental regulations related to various environmental media but not limited to stormwater, hazardous and controlled wastes, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), registered storage tanks, air emission sources, and natural resources.

  • Assist the NASA Project Manager and key stakeholders involved with construction activities with preparing a KSC Environmental Checklist, which helps identify potential environmental compliance requirements related to the project.
  • Perform a site walk-down of a facility/area as projects are being planned to assist in identifying potential environmental hazardous material/waste generation, potential environmental permit requirement awareness and other concerns related to environmental impacts and maximize recycling opportunities.
  • Participate in design review and pre-work meetings to ensure environmental requirements provided in the KSC Record of Environmental Consideration (REC) are communicated to the NASA Project Managers and construction contractors.
  • Review construction contract design packages for the applicability of KSC environmental clauses and specifications.
  • Perform site inspections during construction activities to monitor compliance with environmental requirements defined in the REC and partner with the NASA Project Manager to mitigate potential or existing noncompliance issues.
  • Provide field consultation and awareness to construction personnel regarding multimedia environmental requirements (i.e., waste management, stormwater, regulated tanks, etc.) and work with NEMCON subject matter experts for these areas.
  • Coordinate waste containers for use by construction projects. Use the waste determination to select the proper, compatible container for construction project use.

Required Education and Experience:
  • Bachelor's degree in environmental science, geology, chemistry, biology, or related scientific discipline with eight years of directly related work experience.
  • General understanding and ability to interpret environmental regulations related to stormwater, hazardous and controlled wastes, PCBs, registered storage tanks, and natural resources.
  • Knowledge of labeling, storage, handling and disposal requirements for managing hazardous wastes under the large quantity generator designation.
  • Understanding of general operational and work practices commonly utilized at construction sites. Varying from small remodeling/refurbishment projects to large-scale building construction and/or demolition projects.
  • Ability to read, analyze and understand engineering designs, documents, and contracts.
  • Mathematical skills and the ability to read, analyze and understand written information including regulations, and communicate effectively, both verbally and in writing, where the information being communicated includes precise data and terminology, possibly of a confidential nature.
  • Proficient in Microsoft Office Programs (i.e. Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.).
  • Possess valid driver's license and be eligible for clearance at a federal facility.
  • Successfully pass an occupational health physical to obtain and maintain qualifications and certifications required to perform this work.
  • Must possess excellent organizational skills and the ability to thrive in a team atmosphere including the ability to effectively communicate and work with all levels of employees.

Preferred Experience and Skills:

  • Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) Qualified Stormwater Inspector certification
  • Extensive technical knowledge and is considered a Subject Matter Expert (SME) in one or more areas of environmental media.

Working Conditions:
