About The Position

“Ahead of Ready" Space is a critical domain, connecting our technologies, our security and our humanity. While others view space as a destination, we see it as a realm of possibilities, where we can do more — we can innovate, invest, inspire and integrate our capabilities to transform the future. At Lockheed Martin Space, we aim to harness the full potential of space to cultivate innovation, reduce costs, and push the boundaries of what technology can achieve. We’re creating future-ready solutions, focusing on resiliency and urgency through our 21st Century Security® vision. We’re erasing boundaries and forming partnerships across industries and around the world. We’re advancing spacecraft and the workforce to fuel the next generation. And we’re reimagining how space can connect us, ensuring security and prosperity. Join us in shaping a new era in space and find a career that's built for you. As an authority on Survivability Engineering, you will be the technical team lead on applying hardening techniques in the development of the Next Generation Interceptor (NGI) missile. This job will include the following responsibilities: Technical authority on Nuclear Hardness and Survivability techniques Guiding and mentoring junior survivability engineers in complex survivability engineering tasks Be the primary technical advisor/consultant in survivability for program leadership and customers Ensure that the military-grade missile and space vehicle designs perform during and after exposure to natural and manmade radiation from the component through system levels Use modeling techniques in the classified environment for radiation transport calculations, assess persistent man-made environments, determine sensor performance, and assess overall system level survivability. Conduct technical planning, specification derivation, test planning and implementation, documentation, verification/validation to support overall system needs and act as a technical consultant for design teams and customers. Work with LM Space Enterprise Survivability Engineering group and other internal leading subject matter experts and mentor rising engineering talent on NGI and across Space.
