Amentum Space Exploration Division Temporary FT Drafting and Design Engineer #ADV000AAN Huntsville, Alabama

This is a temporary fulltime position anticipated up to 6 months supporting the Engineering Drafting sub-team. This Drafting Engineer will support the NASA Space Launch System (SLS) Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) labs, and System Emulator equipment from Marshall Space Flight center in Huntsville Alabama. The HWIL labs include the System Integration and Test Facility (SITF), Systems Integration Laboratory (SIL), and multiple Software Development Facilities (SDFs) used to verify the integrated avionics and software systems for the SLS rocket. Collectively these labs are known as the Integrated Avionics Test Facilities (IATF). The System Emulators replicate key system level functions and functional interfaces for NASA manned space flight systems integration activities in various locations across the United States. All of these labs and emulators include numerous complex real-time Software Models integrated with Electrical/Avionics systems to achieve detailed simulation of the SLS rocket. Work will be performed for the Avionics and Ground Systems Test Branch (ES53) of the SLS program at NASAs Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama. This branch is responsible for maintenance, fabrication, integration, operation, assembly, and testing of project hardware and software in support of the noted SLS labs and system emulators. Responsibilities: This positions primary responsibilities include: Generate 2D/3D models of parts and assemblies to ensure well-documented lab design. Create, check and maintain design documentation for engineering labs. This includes preliminary conceptual design evolving to released design drawings. Interpret engineering models and drawings. o Design documentation drawings include (but not limited to) 1) Structures for mounting electrical/electronic equipment, 2) computer equipment assemblies, 3) Cable Interconnect drawings, 4) 19 rack layout drawings Prepare engineering product definition in accordance with ASME Y14.100 and related standards. Receive and implement redline changes to existing engineering drawings Ensure part masters and bill of material attributes are accurate and up-to-date Working with Configuration Management to release updated engineering drawings into the as-designed lab configuration system Working with associated Systems Engineering (SE), Lab Operations, and Facility Architecture teams to ensure responsive support to design needs Other responsibilities may be assigned as needed These activities will be ongoing as the SLS program completes program phases, reviews and schedule milestones, and as the SLS Launch Vehicle architecture evolves.
