Responsibilities

Develop and be responsible for program’s system control architecture and technical approach. This can include dynamic and transient thermal analysis, controls analysis, reliability analysis, testing, test analysis, and other accepted methods in aerospace for the development and verification and validation of controls

Identify and manage program’s technical risks with regards to system controls

Serve as technical controls lead for programs, provide clear objectives that are measurable and attainable, and coordinate technical activities with internal resources (engineers across different functional groups including analysis, software, and electrical) and external resources (vendors, contractors)

Work closely with the Systems Engineer and other engineering disciplines to optimize system design and ensure successful execution of development programs

Manage and account for technical requirements from the top down – traceability, decomposition, derivation, and verification & validation for transient performance, fault detection, and controls stability

Decompose high-level dynamic and controls requirements into lower-level specifications to internal functional groups, components, and suppliers as applicable

Researching and recommending investments or changes in technology, toolsets, procedures, equipment, systems, etc. to continually improve the discipline health and the Intergalactic’s products and service

Communicate and collaborate with customers and suppliers as part of design development process

Review and approve documentation for transition from prototype to production

Provide engineering support to trouble shoot and diagnose non-performing products (RCCA, lessons learned, etc.)

Work with software and integration engineers to implement, test, and debug control law algorithms
