The Enterprise Effects Division (EED) drives integration of Aerospace’s strategic capabilities across the national space enterprise. The division leverages a broad array of engineering disciplines against a dynamic portfolio of programs, customers, and national challenges. EED spans the capability lifecycle from concept and architecture design to performance assessment to application of space and space-enabled capabilities.
As a core component of EED, the Earth-Orbit Flight Dynamics Department provides flight mechanics expertise for launch and space vehicles. This includes expertise in orbital mechanics, astrodynamics, trajectory design and optimization, and atmospheric flight modeling and simulation. The department is a critical integration partner for a wide range of engineering disciplines to facilitate the company’s mission of providing multi-disciplinary insights. We are looking for a Section Manager to help lead the Contested Operations Section.
As a Section Manager, the selected candidate will lead a group of analysts across a variety of mission areas. Core focus areas include contested missions/resiliency tactics development and assessment, Rendezvous and Proximity Operations (RPO) maneuver analysis, and Dynamic Space Operations (DSO). Furthermore, opportunities exist to partner on efforts with technically adjacent departments to strengthen the entire organization.
The selected candidate will help lead department efforts in these areas, providing critical customer interfaces to the operational community, including USSF/SpOC, STARCOM, OTTI, SPACECOM and NRO components. The Section Manager will be expected to work with EOFFD leadership to fuse these customer needs with important equities across the corporate customer landscape, notably SSC, SpRCO, AFRL, NASA, FAA, and NOAA.
