Full-time/Permanent Employee
Location: Albuquerque, NM (Travel: Up to 30% within continental United States)

As a skilled Systems Engineer you will support development of first-of-kind space vehicles and missions. This handpicked candidate mustpossesstechnicalexpertiseand experience with developing, designing, building, and integrating advanced mission payload hardware and software. In this position, you will provide System Engineering Technical Assistance (SETA) to the Space Rapid Capabilities Office (RCO).

The Space RCO program office, located at Kirtland AFB, NM, is a small, streamlined organization with dedicated, organic acquisition support functions: contracting, financial management, human resources, security, program management and technical engineering support that are critical in enabling the rapid response required for classified space programs. The mission is to develop and deliver operationally dominant space capabilities at the speed of war fighting relevance in response to Commander, U.S. Space Command requirements.

A successful candidate should be a leader and problem solver with a proven ability to deliver superior results as part of a high performing team in a high-profile, fast-paced environment.

You will work in a small, highly empowered team where every team member is directly responsible for the success of the program. Engineering responsibilities span technology domains including space-rated/qualified cryptographic and communications hardware and software, and integration with other subsystems, sensors, and processors in an extremely fast-paced, responsive development environment. This SETA candidate will provide in-depth background on cryptographic and communication subsystems to improve program office insight into state-of-the art IC, DoD, commercial and legacy space vehicle systems,requirement sand capabilities.

You must apply advanced principles, theories, and concepts for highly classified systems, while also effectively communicating complex results with management and executive leadership.
