Full job description
Responsibilities
Help safeguard some of the nation's most critical space capabilities. As an Engineering Analyst specializing in Laser Deconfliction and Space Mission Assurance, you will support a high-priority national security space warfighting mission by identifying, analyzing, and mitigating threats that could impact mission-critical space and ground assets.
As a key member of the Flight Safety Engineering team, you will conduct advanced orbital and directed-energy threat analyses to assess potential hazards posed by terrestrial and space-based systems. Your work will directly support mission operators, planners, and decision-makers by providing timely warnings, risk assessments, and technical recommendations that protect operational assets and ensure mission continuity.
This role combines astrodynamics, flight safety, operational engineering, and threat analysis to deliver mission-critical products that enable safe and effective space operations. You will also help shape the future of mission protection by integrating new data sources, refining operational procedures, improving analytical capabilities, and supporting the development of next-generation mission systems.
The ideal candidate is a technically skilled problem-solver with a strong understanding of orbital dynamics, flight safety operations, and space-domain threats who thrives in a fast-paced national security environment.
Key Responsibilities
Conduct routine and time-sensitive conjunction assessments (CA) and directed-energy (laser) deconfliction analyses to identify and mitigate threats to mission-critical space and ground assets.
Validate and assess the integrity of orbital and mission data used to support flight safety, mission protection, and operational decision-making.
Develop, maintain, and deliver deconfliction products, risk assessments, and operational recommendations to support asset protection and mission assurance objectives.
Create and refine operational procedures, checklists, and workflows that improve mission effectiveness, asset protection, and analytical consistency.
Support the integration and operational adoption of new data sources, analytical tools, and mission systems.
Improve tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) supporting flight safety, space domain awareness, and mission protection operations.
Monitor emerging space-domain threats and maintain awareness of current operational risks affecting mission assets.
Analyze pre-launch and post-launch Two-Line Element (TLE) data, state vectors, trajectories, and hypothetical burn ephemerides using the latest Resident Space Object (RSO) catalog information to identify and mitigate collision and operational risks.
Operate advanced orbital analysis and propagation software to generate accurate mission products and support operational planning activities.
Deliver technical assessments and reports to mission operators, planners, engineers, and senior decision-makers.
Participate in flight safety reviews, technical working groups, mission planning sessions, training activities, and operational exercises.
Support training, mission readiness, and continuous improvement initiatives across the broader mission protection enterprise.
This position is contingent upon contract award.
Qualifications
Required Qualifications
Minimum of 8 years with BS/BA; Minimum of 6 years with MS/MA
2+ years of experience using flight safety and orbital analysis tools such as Astrodynamics Support Workstation (ASW), SuperCombo, Systems Tool Kit (STK), or comparable mission systems.

Active TS/SCI clearance with adjudicated Polygraph
Preferred Qualifications
4+ years of experience supporting conjunction assessment, laser deconfliction, flight safety operations, space mission assurance, systems engineering, or operational space missions.
Advanced understanding of orbital mechanics, astrodynamics, flight safety operations, and space mission planning.
Knowledge of foreign and domestic space and ground-based threat capabilities.
Experience supporting Intelligence Community, Department of Defense, or national security space missions.
Experience integrating operational requirements into technical system development efforts.
