Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
As an Electromechanical Controls Engineer, you will conduct technical studies and experimental investigations to support customer programs. You will also verify contractor designs and lead experimental investigations in the Mechatronics Research Laboratory.
A minimum of a bachelor's degree in a STEM field and 3 years of applicable experience is required. Proficiency in laboratory experimentation and experience with control systems and inertial sensors is also necessary.
The Aerospace Corporation is the trusted partner to the nation’s space programs, solving the hardest problems and providing unmatched technical expertise. As the operator of a federally funded research and development center (FFRDC), we are broadly engaged across all aspects of space— delivering innovative solutions that span satellite, launch, ground, and cyber systems for defense, civil and commercial customers. When you join our team, you’ll be part of a special collection of problem solvers, thought leaders, and innovators. Join us and take your place in space.
The Vehicle Systems Division (VSD) sits at the center of the ideas and data behind current and future systems supplying innovative research and development; technical evaluations during the acquisition process; conceptual and detailed design; assembly, integration, and test; and operational support.
Comprised primarily of highly trained mechanical and aerospace engineers, VSD provides national expertise in the areas of vehicle engineering; guidance, navigation, and controls; robotics; electro- mechanical devices; embedded systems; fluid mechanics; propulsion; thermal control; orbital mechanics; mechanisms; structures; structural dynamics; and dynamic environments.
The Electromechanical Control Department (ECD) provides technical support in the areas of electromechanical control systems, control system hardware and algorithms used for spacecraft and launch vehicles, as well as terrestrial and aerial applications. We specialize in mission critical control sensor and actuator, including electric motors, gyroscopes and IMUs, accelerometers, gimbals, steering mirrors, encoders & resolvers, star trackers, GPS receivers, capacitive & inductive sensors, servo mechanism, reaction wheels, and thrust vector control actuators.
As an Electromechanical Controls Engineer (Senior Member of Technical Staff - Guidance, Navigation & Control Engineering) in ECD, you will plan and conduct technical studies and experimental investigations to support customer programs, interacting with government customers, program management, and contractors.
This is a full-time, 100% onsite position based in El Segundo, CA.
What You’ll Be Doing
Conducting technical studies which often involve evaluation, analysis, modeling, or simulation of control systems and their components
Verifying contractor designs, approaches, and overall system performance
Leading experimental investigations in the Mechatronics Research Laboratory (managed by ECD) involving controller design and implementation, data reduction and visualization, sensor and actuator performance evaluation, and electro-optical systems calibration and alignment
Communicating findings with government customers, program management, and contractors on multiple programs as the technical authority, consultant, primary investigator, and/or project lead
What You Need to be Successful
Minimum Requirements:
Bachelor's degree in a STEM field
3 years of applicable professional or educational experience
Proficiency in laboratory experimentation, test strategy development, experiment design, and integration and testing
Experience with electronics, mechanical design, control systems, inertial sensors, and actuators applicable to spacecraft and/or launch vehicles
Experience performing technical support in complex environments (multi-program, multi-agency) involving customers, program offices, engineering support, and contractors
Proficiency in tools such as MATLAB/Simulink, dSPACE, LabVIEW, SolidWorks, C/C++, Python
Willingness to occasionally travel and support customer needs, approximately 10% (as required)
This position requires ability to obtain and maintain a Top Secret security clearance, which is issued by the U.S. government. U.S. citizenship is required to obtain a security clearance.
How You Can Stand Out
It would be impressive if you have one or more of these:
Advanced degree in a STEM field
Experience in areas such as: electromechanical interface development, GPS receiver testing and associated algorithms, space vehicle control electronics and avionics systems, electronic circuit design and analysis, laser communications and optics, signal processing and filtering, real-time software development
Hardware expertise in sensors, actuators, and integrated systems, e.g., electric motors, rotational sensors, reaction wheels, and control moment gyros, etc.
Familiarity with launch vehicle and satellite payloads and control, their relationships to other subsystems, and to mission-level performance
Active secret clearance with the ability to obtain and maintain a TS/SCI security clearance, which is issued by the U.S. government, is strongly preferred. U.S. citizenship is required to obtain a security clearance.
