Mechanism Engineer at Craig Technologies in Greenbelt, MD
Summary:
Craig Technologiesis seeking a senior-level Mechanism Engineer on the OMES II contract in support of the OSAM-1 program in NASA's Exploration and In-Space Services (NExIS) projects division at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. This position is located in Greenbelt, MD. The OSAM-1 mission is a Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) NExIS managed mission. OSAM-1 is a robotic servicing mission designed to refuel a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite. It contains 3 elements:
the Flight Element comprised of the OSAM-1 Servicing Vehicle (RSV) and development testbeds, the Ground Element comprised of the systems required to conduct RSV operations and the supporting networks and facilities, and the Launch Element comprised of the Launch Vehicle and supporting facilities and services. NExIS is responsible for the design, engineering, development, test and operations of the OSAM-1 Mission through an integrated team at GSFC. The Servicing Payload design, development and RSV integration will be conducted at GSFC. The engineer will provide senior mechanical engineer support to the OSAM-1 mechanical subsystem including:
Harness Routing Payload Deck Design Concept trade studies Concept design and detailed design of spaceflight mechanical systems and their components Engineering support for fabrication, assembly and testing, including the development of engineering test units and flight units.
