Lead and coordinate certification and verification activities for Thermal Control System and Environmental Control and Life Support System of a spacecraft for qualification and NASA certification.
О компании
- We are developing, manufacturing, and operating Nyx, a modular and reusable spacecraft which will carry cargo to space stations and potentially humans in the longer run.
- We are seeking an experienced Certification Engineer to join our Thermal Control System & Environmental Control and Life Support System team. You will be responsible for leading, coordinating, and driving the certification and verification closure activities of the Nyx Thermal Control System (TCS) and Environmental Control and Life Support System (ECLSS) in support of vehicle qualification, NASA certification, and flight acceptance.
- The role serves as the primary focal point between the TCS & ECLSS teams, System Engineering, Verification & Validation, Chief Engineering Office, AIT, Program, Safety Engineering, and external stakeholders. The Certification Engineer ensures that TCS and ECLSS requirements are properly allocated, verified, traceable, and closed with appropriate evidence, while maintaining alignment with NASA SSP requirements, Data Item Deliverables (DIDs), verification plans, and Safety Review Panel expectations.
- The position requires a strong understanding of spacecraft systems engineering, thermal engineering, verification methodologies, qualification logic, and agency review processes to ensure that technical evidence across both subsystems is complete, credible, traceable, and accepted by the certification authorities.
Требования
- Act as the TCS & ECLSS focal point for NASA certification and verification activities .
- Coordinate the closure of applicable NASA SSP requirements and associated verification products, including the DIDs.
- Ensure consistency between analyses, test results, requirements, qualification rationale, and certification documentation across both subsystems.
- Maintain alignment between NASA verification expectations and TEC verification approaches.
- Coordinate with TCS and ECLSS technical owners to ensure certification evidence is technically robust and delivered according to program and customer milestones.
- Ensure qualification, acceptance, development, and integrated test campaigns provide the evidence required for certification.
- Identify verification gaps early and drive mitigation actions.
- Support preparation of verification plans, qualification matrices, and closure notices.
- Participate in major test reviews and assess certification impacts of anomalies and non-conformances.
- Support requirement closure from TVAC, Thermal Balance, functional testing, and integrated spacecraft verification campaigns.
- Drive the closure of actions and verification-related NCRs
- 8+ years of experience in spacecraft development, system engineering, verification, certification, or thermal engineering.
- Experience supporting spacecraft design reviews and qualification campaigns.
- Experience interfacing with external customers, agencies, or certification authorities.
- Experience managing complex technical documentation and evidence packages.
