Career Opportunities
Group 73
AEROSPACE ENGINEER
Will develop state-of-the-art hardware for ground-based, airborne, and space payloads from conceptual
design and analysis through fabrication and performance evaluation. Will join a multidisciplinary
engineering team performing mechanical design, structures, dynamics, thermal engineering, fluid
mechanics, and aerodynamics systems engineering.
Qualifications: PhD in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering. Must have knowledge and interest in
hardware development, analysis tools, and experimental methods. Good oral presentation and written
reporting skills are required. (73-01-07)
Group 75
OPTO-MECHANICAL ENGINEER
Will participate in the development of optical, mechanical, and biodefense systems. Applications
include ground-based, airborne, and space payloads. Work will include analysis, design, and
testing applied to the development of complex hardware from conceptual design through
fabrication and performance evaluation. Candidate should be interested in working on a broad
range of challenging problems involving optics, structures, materials, thermal systems, and
fluid dynamics. Position involves working in close-knit teams with design, analysis, and test
personnel.
Qualifications: MS or PhD in Mechanical, Aero/Astro, or Optical Engineering. Working
knowledge of computational tools and experimental experience is required. Hardware
development experience is desired. Must have demonstrated capability to produce professional
oral presentations and written reports. (75-01-07)
Group 76
CONTROL SYSTEMS ENGINEER
Opportunities to fully implement the latest in practical feedback control systems, including analog and
digital circuit design, digital signal processors and field programmable gate arrays, interfacing and
software, sensor signal conditioning, actuator selection, bench checkout, and field testing. Will specify
control systems and lead subsequent hardware design, simulation, fabrication, and demonstration.
Qualifications: MS in Control Systems (Electrical, Mechanical, or Aero Engineering). Must
have good presentation and written reporting skills. Will use knowledge of transducers (angle
encoders, tachometers, gyros, and accelerometers) and motion control devices (motors, actuators,
and power amplifiers) as part of an interdisciplinary, project-oriented engineering team.
Familiarity with MATLAB, Simulink, a real-time operating system such as VxWorks, C/C++,
or very-high-speed integrated circuit hardware description language is desired. (76-01-07)
