Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
The SVP of the Civil Systems Group provides strategic leadership and technical expertise to support US government and international partners in solving complex systems engineering challenges. This includes managing key relationships with agencies like NASA and NOAA and overseeing the group's operational and financial performance.
Candidates must have a bachelor's degree and over 15 years of executive leadership experience, specifically running a P&L center within the aerospace and defense industry. An active TS/SCI security clearance and US citizenship are mandatory requirements for this role.
Is there anything more exciting than surrounding yourself with the smartest people on the planet who are shaping the future of space? We don’t think so. The Aerospace Corporation is the trusted partner to the nation’s space programs, providing unmatched technical expertise to solve the hardest problems. As a federally funded research and development center (FFRDC), we are engaged across the space enterprise — delivering innovative solutions that span satellite, launch, ground and cyber systems for defense, intelligence, civil, and commercial customers. With over 3,000 scientists and engineers, Aerospace addresses complex problems across the enterprise through agility, innovation, and objective technical leadership.
To enable this, The Aerospace Corporation is focusing on critical technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, photonics, optical communications, additive manufacturing, electric propulsion, as well as new tools in modeling, simulation, cloud computing, and digital engineering. We design and test these technologies in our world-class labs and facilities.
For example, did you know that Aerospace builds and operates the world’s largest constellation of experimental cubesats? These capabilities are providing the foundation for a new generation of resilient, affordable constellation of satellites and advanced ground systems that meet the needs of warfighters, explorers, and key decision makers. These and other major activities place us in the unprecedented position to influence the exciting changes that span across the entire space industry. Join us and make a difference.
Position Overview
The Civil Systems Group provides deep technical expertise and cutting-edge innovation to support the United States government and its allies to solve the most complex technical challenges within high-consequence environments across the civil space enterprise — including human space flight, Moon-to-Mars exploration, Earth sensing, astronomy and space science, and nuclear security — spanning systems engineering and integration, hardware and prototype development, launch readiness, and mission assurance. The Senior Vice President of the Civil Systems Group (SVP, CSG) is responsible for establishing and providing strategic leadership to our key civil, commercial and international partners (i.e., National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), The Aerospace Corporation UK Ltd (Aerospace UK).
Location: This position requires full-time onsite presence (5 days/week) in Chantilly, VA or El Segundo, CA, with consideration given to Houston, TX based on candidate fit — this is a hands-on leadership role requiring regular visibility with the team, government customers, and cross-site collaboration. Employees located across the country.
