Our world-class team includes experts in all aspects of spacecraft subsystems design, development, and test, on-orbit operations, and safety.

About the Position:

If you're excited about contributing to human space exploration and advancing our understanding of the universe, we'd like to hear from you. Join a team that values collaboration, diverse perspectives, and meaningful work. Your skills and ideas will help us design and deliver systems that support future space missions and create benefits here on Earth. As NASA's largest engineering solutions provider working together with NASA at centers across the United States. We have an exciting opportunity for a Systems Engineer to support mission integration activities in Houston, Texas. This position will focus on development and maturation of a mission activity database / system mapping product supporting integrated mission analysis and technical planning.

This role is ideal for an engineer with a strong systems engineering integration background and experience bridging engineering, operations, and test environments. The selected candidate will work closely with program stakeholders and subject matter experts to translate mission and system concepts into a structured, state-based analytical product that supports integration planning, analysis, and technical review activities

Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain a mission activity database and related system mapping products to support integrated mission analysis.
• Build end-to-end mission and system mappings across multiple elements and interfaces.
• Develop and organize state-table-based system mapping products to support analysis and planning.
• Support preparation of technical products for major integration reviews and milestone assessments.
• Translate engineering and operational concepts into structured, traceable analytical products.
• Reverse engineer existing technical information, workflows, and system relationships as needed.
• Coordinate with program leads, analysts, and technical stakeholders to refine product content and approach.
• Receive initial knowledge transfer and handoff support, then transition into growing ownership of the product.
• Work across subsystem interfaces to ensure mission activities and operational relationships are accurately represented.
• Support a fast-paced development timeline with near-term product delivery expectations

Education & Experience

• Typically requires a bachelor's degree in engineering and a minimum of 5 years of experience in the field or in a related area.
• Bachelor's degree in engineering or related technical discipline.
• Experience in systems engineering integration and interface management.
• Background spanning engineering and operations/test environments.
• Demonstrated ability to work independently, take initiative, and execute with limited direction.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, including the ability to work from incomplete or evolving information.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to coordinate across technical teams.

Requisition Preferences:

• Experience supporting complex aerospace, flight, or mission-oriented systems
• Experience with test and verification, operations integration, or mission analysis activities
• Experience developing system logic, operational flow products, state representations, or database-driven engineering products
• Ability to quickly understand subsystem relationships and build technically sound mappings across a larger integrated system
• Experience supporting technical review products and milestone-driven engineering efforts
