About The Position

Barrios Technology is hiring an SE&I Engineer to join the JETSII Contract as part of the Barrios team. The engineer will serve as a technical contributor and integrator for next-generation life support systems for lunar lander vehicles. The role evaluates system designs, documentation, and analyses from NASA programs and commercial partners to ensure compliance with interface, performance, and safety requirements for Artemis missions and similar applications and environments.

The position involves systems engineering and integration assessments, technical documentation and requirements review, evaluation of partner designs for compatibility with crew and vehicle or habitat systems, and coordination with NASA program personnel, suit vendors, and vehicle contractors. The role also supports resolution of complex system-level issues through analysis, trade studies, and technical reviews.

Work is generally performed in an office environment, though tasks may involve work inside or outside test facilities. The role may involve extended periods of sitting, lifting and carrying up to 25 pounds, entering test facility areas, commuting, and travel to other installations. Regular attendance is critical, and the employee may need to adjust their schedule to support peak periods or surge requirements. Applicants must be U.S. citizens and successfully complete a U.S. government background investigation; eligibility for access to classified information may be required. A post-offer, pre-employment drug test is a condition of employment.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in engineering, such as mechanical, aerospace, systems, or a related discipline.
• Five years of experience in human spaceflight, life support systems, or complex aerospace systems engineering.
• Strong systems engineering background, including requirements development, verification and validation, and interface control.
• Demonstrated experience reviewing technical documentation, including specifications, analyses, requirements, and V&V artifacts, and providing meaningful, actionable feedback.
• Ability to understand and evaluate complex systems relevant to Artemis-class missions.
• Excellent communication skills, including presenting technical findings to NASA programs and partner organizations.
• Must be a U.S. citizen and successfully complete a U.S. government background investigation.
• Must meet eligibility requirements for access to classified information if subject to a government security investigation.
• Must be able to work in a team atmosphere and demonstrate professional behavior that promotes productivity, teamwork, and cooperation.
• Must maintain regular attendance in accordance with the established work schedule and be able to adjust schedules for peak periods and surge requirements when required.
• Must be able to sit for extended periods; lift and carry up to 25 pounds; and enter test facility areas when necessary.
• Must be able to commute and travel to other installations as needed.
• Must pass a post-offer, pre-employment drug test.
• License and certification may be required.

Nice To Haves

• Experience with spacesuit and PLSS design, integration, testing, or systems engineering.
• Experience working independently to identify issues, prioritize tasks, and collaborate with NASA, vendor, and vehicle partner teams.
• Experience with human spaceflight development programs such as ISS, Gateway, or Artemis.
• Experience with lunar lander vehicles planned for Artemis missions.

Responsibilities

• Perform systems engineering and integration assessments of life support systems for lunar lander vehicles and related subsystem documentation, analyses, and requirements.
• Review and develop ICDs and other materials, including ConOps, IRDs, DRDs, IDDs, GR&As, V&V evidence, modeling outputs, and system specifications, for completeness and technical adequacy.
• Assess partner-provided designs for compatibility with crew interfaces and vehicle or habitat systems.
• Coordinate with NASA program personnel, suit vendor teams, and vehicle contractors to clarify requirements, communicate findings, and support integrated system development.
• Support resolution of complex system-level issues through analysis, trade studies, and technical review.
• Perform other duties as assigned.
