Compensation
Min: $94,910.76
Max: $165,031.40
Responsibilities
Support mission and systems engineering activities across the full system lifecycle, from mission concept and requirements development through development, integration, test, deployment, and operations.
Engage directly with government customers, mission users, and technical stakeholders to understand operational needs, mission objectives, priorities, constraints, and challenges.
Support and participate in user engagements, working groups, technical discussions, and stakeholder reviews, helping capture and communicate mission needs and engineering considerations.
Develop and refine mission concepts, CONOPS, requirements assessments, requirements, user engagement materials, briefings, and related engineering products.
Analyze requirements and technical documentation from multiple sources to identify commonality, overlap, gaps, inconsistencies, dependencies, and areas requiring further clarification.
As a Mission Operations Engineer, you will be the lead technical authority for Millennium’s on-orbit spacecraft. Your work will encompass the entire spacecraft mission life cycle, from the proposal phase to spacecraft and mission design, through space vehicle integration and test, and culminating with launch and on-orbit operations.
