The Pressure Systems Engineer will support the space program supporting NASA at Michoud Assembly Facility (MAF) located in New Orleans, LA. The Pressure systems engineer will provide support to the Pressure Vessel / Systems (PVS) Manager oriented toward existing pressure vessels and in-service piping systems. They will perform engineering analyses as required and compile documentation and compose reports for certification of PVS at MAF. Certification efforts involve performing walkdown inspections, data gathering, engineering analysis, documentation preparation, and data entry into applicable collection and storage locations. Coordinate inspection activities with NDE Inspectors as well as systems/vessel user/owners to obtain data and evaluate conditions of components, piping, tubing, and vessels. Certification efforts are performed in accordance with national consensus standards such as ASME Section VIII, B31.3, B31.3, NBIC as well as NASA standard NASA-STD-8719.17. Perform engineering analysis using RAGAGEP, (i.e., Fatigue, Cumulative Damage, and Remaining Life Assessments). Other duties as assigned.
