The contract also includes services to other NASA programs, commercial ventures, and partnerships at KSC. The Transformation Office has responsibility for planning and leading operational excellence (transformation and continuous improvement), strategy, innovation, and collaboration across the organization to achieve the strategic advancement, efficiency, and affordability milestones in the Transformation Roadmap.
The candidate will provide support for, and direction for the following\:
This position is within the Fluids Design Engineering Group on the COMET Contract. In this position, the selected engineer will be supporting the design, development, test, and commissioning of Ground Support Equipment (GSE) for Cryogenics Systems, and components for the Space Launch System. Work shall include the development of models and drawings, analysis, design review presentations, and support for manufacturing, operations, and testing of GSE that interfaces with the Space Vehicle. Depending on the project type, this can vary from participating in conceptual design ideas, inspection of space vehicle support hardware, to revisions to existing designs and modifications to Apollo, Shuttle and SLS era Space Center infrastructure or GSE. Duties also include supporting preparation of essential engineering documentation components required for a complete and viable system. Must be well organized, extremely flexible, and capable of multitasking.
Responsibilities
Responsibilities include, but not limited to\:
· Design the systems involving equipment used to transfer cryogenics to and from the launch vehicle. Be cognizant of system hardware including manual and remotely operated cryogenic valves, solenoid valves, vacuum-insulated piping, high-pressure gas systems, and instrumentation.
· Develop, plan, and implement system design changes and modifications to improve efficiency, safety, and/or obsolescence issues.
· Develop models and drawings, producing component specifications, supporting design review presentations, review of systems to ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and support for manufacturing, logistics and operations.
· Conduct system tests, collect and analyze data on equipment performance. Troubleshoot equipment/system anomalies.
· Coordinate external organizational support for work involving the Launch Complex 39 cryogenic system.
· Research special tools and instruments for utilization in system operations.
· Support system safety analysis, Pressure Vessel Systems (PVS) certifications, FEMA/CIL reviews, risk review boards, Logistics Support Analysis reviews, Problem Resolution Teams, design reviews, Process Hazard Analysis, Engineering Review Boards, and Integrated Operations planning and scheduling meetings.
· Create and execute component and subsystem design verification/acceptance plans and test methods to validate performance to requirements
· Support troubleshooting/investigating equipment failures and interpret analysis data/technical drawings/schematics to resolve anomalies and provide written corrective action.
· Duties may also include oversight of construction activities to validate compliance with contract documents.
· Implement the Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) process to ensure asset design for maintainability and reliability to preserve function and cost effectiveness throughout the asset life cycle. Develop and proactively track metrics to monitor system(s) performance, efficiency, safety, and component/system reliability and obsolescence.
· Provide guidance/mentoring to junior engineers.
· Perform other duties as assigned.
