Job description

Responsibilities

Peraton provides management and technical support for NASA's scientific balloon program which supports enabling science missions for NASA and universities across the United States and foreign scientific communities. Scientific balloon missions provide researchers inexpensive, relatively quick, long duration access to near space altitudes and environments. Balloon missions cost orders of magnitude less than satellite missions and provide platforms for heavy experiments (some greater than 5000-lbs) to operate for weeks and even months. Balloon missions have provided significant science theories and discoveries about cosmic rays, gamma ray and x-ray astronomy, optical and UV astronomy, atmospheric sciences, and cosmic microwave background studies.

Our staff are located at the Columbia Scientific Balloon Facility (CSBF) in Palestine, TX where we design, analyze, build and assembly the support hardware and balloon gondola payloads for the missions. We launch the balloons from locations within the United States (Texas, New Mexico, and Hawaii) and around the world including Antarctica, Sweden, New Zealand, and Australia. Our engineers and technician staff support the launches and balloon and payload recoveries in the US and many worldwide locations.

This is a great position for someone looking for a temporary position, the shifts are early morning or overnight.

Responsibilities of the NASA Balloon Operations Ground Station Monitor:

  • Provide support in monitoring ground station equipment during balloon missions.
  • Report mission status as required by documented procedures.
  • Maintain required training qualifications.
  • Shifts: 1st and 2nd
  • Position will start as on-call and lead into continuous support for the duration of the assigned balloon campaign. 
Qualifications

Required Qualifications:

  • High School diploma or GED
  • Computer knowledge required
  • Detailed oriented and organized
  • Ability to log real time and historical records
  • Must be able to obtain a NASA PIV badge and be a US citizen.
  • Ability to acquire a US passport and potential travel outside of Texas for periods of up to 90 days
