Execute clean-sheet design, analysis, and integration of propulsion components

Support hardware through rapid build–test–iterate cycles

Lead troubleshooting and root cause analysis during development and test

Work with propulsion and vehicle system owners to define requirements, interfaces, and integration strategies

Perform system-level sizing, architecture, and design trades

Lead development testing, qualification, and acceptance of flight hardware

Support transition from prototype to repeatable, production-ready designs

Define operational limits and ensure reliability and safety across all phases of use

Make risk-informed engineering decisions aligned with program goals and timelines

Prioritize work effectively in a fast-paced, evolving development environment
