Responsibilities

• - Verify system operation & performance in flight, test, and emulated test venues
• - Develop rational and define design & test requirements derived from high-level system requirements
• - Identify, document, and address gaps in test coverage and requirements
• - Support data reviews of ground tests and flight operations: confirm nominal operation, identify and investigate anomalies
• - Develop or implement tools and processes to support autonomous and scalable identification of anomalies in test/flight data.
• - Write, run, and review hardware-in-the-loop tests against system concept of operations (CONOPs) and requirements
• - Support writing, reviewing, and maintaining design and test artifacts for the production propulsion system. This includes software interfaces, high-level software requirements, and propulsion system requirements.
• - Support systems engineering efforts within the Propulsion Design team, and with critical stakeholders (e.g. software, avionics, thermal, GNC)
• - Support on-orbit operations
