  • High competence with, and fluid use of engineering first principles

  • BS, MS or PhD in an engineering discipline

  • Must be eligible to obtain / maintain US Security Clearance.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS


  • Knowledge of hazardous or pressurized systems (cryogenics, hydraulics, jet fuels, and energy storage systems)

  • Familiarity with instrumentation and control components (accelerometers, load cells, thermocouples, pressure transducers, strain gauges, RTDs, and others)

  • Familiarity with industry-standard test guidance - MIL-STD-810, RCC-319

  • Proficiency in at least one coding language (Python, Matlab, etc)
