Surface Exploration Avionics Lab (SEAL) C&DH System Lead - Space Systems

Oceaneering Space Systems (OSS) develops, integrates, and applies new and innovative technologies to meet the challenges of working in space and other harsh environments. We are ideally positioned to meet the growing needs of NASA and the expanding commercial and Department of Defense (DOD) markets.

Oceaneering Aerospace and Defense Technologies (AdTech) delivers solutions that enable humans to work safely and effectively in harsh environments - from underwater to the outer reaches of space. Our innovative solutions support the development and application of practical, cost-effective systems that meet our customers' challenges - from routine to extreme. Our experience and expertise across multiple industries uniquely positions us as a leader in the government, space, and maritime services markets. Our products and services meet the rigorous demands of the complex environments in which they operate, delivering results without compromising safety or reliability.

Oceaneering is a global provider of engineered services and products, primarily to the offshore energy industry. We develop products and services for use throughout the lifecycle of an offshore oilfield, from drilling to decommissioning. We operate the world''s premier fleet of work class ROVs. Additionally, we are a leader in offshore oilfield maintenance services, umbilicals, subsea hardware, and tooling. We also use applied technology expertise to serve the defense, entertainment, material handling, aerospace, science, and renewable energy industries.

Some of your major responsibilities will include:

• Serve as the C&DH Section Lead supporting the Surface Exploration Avionics Lab (SEAL), focusing on the planning, requirements analysis, design, acquisition, setup, configuration testing, operation, deployment, performance assurance and maintenance of C&DH ground test and emulation systems, which will be used to verify and validate the functionality and interoperability of the Lunar Surface C&DH systems.

• Generates and/or applies theories, principles, practical concepts, processes, and systems related to the science of electrical/electronics engineering and the traditional engineering science disciplines (e.g., mechanical and electrical); physical science disciplines (e.g., chemistry and physics); and advanced mathematics, computer science, and economics.

• Researches, develops, tests, evaluates, operates, maintains, decommissions, and/or directs the fabrication, manufacture, installation and/or certification of electrical/electronic devices used in diverse technologies such as aviation, computing, transportation, commerce, and manufacturing; industrial, academic, entertainment, communications, business, residential, and healthcare environments; and a broad range of products such as computer systems, navigational systems, programmable logic controls, sensors, magnetic imaging systems, and defense systems.

• Analyzes and studies performance requirements against an array of diverse considerations, such as safety and human factors engineering; technical risks; functionality; reliability; failure analysis; quality assurance; maintainability; affordability of each system and device; and impact on the environment.

• Performs multiple functions which may include, planning, design, test and evaluation, cost analyses, program and project management, quality management for projects. Specific duties may include:

• Monitors contracted work either externally or on-site in the facility of the contractor.

• Works alongside other engineers to perform various duties.

• Conducts specialized studies, which may include overall and individual major computer systems, communication systems, navigation systems, display systems, radar systems, robots or components to ensure their safety, suitability, and effectiveness in operation. Conceives, specifies determination, analyzes, plans, developments, installs, tests, modifies, and uses avionic systems for both flight and ground applications. This work is concerned with the hardware and software elements required for avionic systems, including system components, component/system interfaces, operating systems, and applications software. The work also requires monitoring, providing technical direction, and evaluation of contractors engaged in this work.

• This specialty also includes positions that provide project management of avionic systems, includes leading a team to define, develop, test and deliver an avionic system; interface with the customer to define and negotiate technical and programmatic requirements; and planning/managing project activities to deliver products that meet technical specifications within budget and schedule.

• Tasks Include Leading and Coordinating C&DH.

• Requirements development, requirements integration, DDT&E activities and trade space evaluations.

• Activities within and across all Surface Exploration Architecture Emulations.

• Verification development and requirements closure with Requirements, Interfaces & Verification (RIV) Team.

• Inputs to and support of SEAL Integrated Analysis Cycles via:

• Requirements Gap Assessment, Technical Baseline Revisions (including TBX Closure), GRAs Updates and SRR/SDR Action Item Closure.

• Inputs to closure efforts for identified SEAL Risks.

• Provide support to cross-discipline risks requiring input to mitigating steps or C&DH supporting analyses.

• Support for SEAL Synch Reviews and Project Milestones.

• Perform other duties as required.

• Must have good communication and organizational skills and the ability to work in a team environment.
