We are the pioneers of commercial space, leading the transformation of low-Earth orbit into a global space marketplace. Our mission-driven team is seeking a bold and dynamic EPS Integration and Planning Engineer Senior who is fueled by high accountability, execution horsepower, and driven to understand our world, science/technology, and life itself, for the benefit of all on Earth and beyond. Position Summary Since Axiom Space is a very complex work environment, we are looking for a resilient, high-energy early career EPS Integration and Planning Engineer (up to a level III) to work alongside the senior integration and planning engineer on the Electrical Power System schedule, the open item registers, and the coordination that keeps subsystems, suppliers, laboratories, and the customer aligned. The Axiom Space Station power architecture is a regulated 120 V dual bus system: solar array regulation as the first bus forming stage, isolated conversion as the second, high voltage energy storage with charge and discharge regulation, secondary conversion to 120 V and 28 V, and protected load distribution through latching current limiters, all of it distributed across module boundaries and across berthing and docking interfaces. You will work in Microsoft Project every day, maintain a real Integrated Master Schedule on a program building flight hardware, and will be expected to care whether the logic behind it is correct. Technical integration scope grows around that core as you learn the program: interface data checks, facility and test readiness, supplier data intake, and review package preparation. This is the seat where you learn how a spacecraft gets built, because you will be sitting at the point where every subsystem, every supplier, and every schedule commitment must agree with each other Key Duties & Responsibilities Maintain the Electrical Power System portion of the Integrated Master Schedule in Microsoft Project: progress updates, forecast dates, logic corrections, resource and milestone alignment, and gate traceability, and flag slips early rather than at the status meetingProduce recurring schedule and status products: variance against baseline, upcoming milestone and deliverable views, critical path summaries, and the supporting data behind eachMaintain the registers the program runs on: actions, open items, review item dispositions, requests for action, interface issues, and risks, including owners, due dates, and closure evidenceTrack long lead procurement, supplier deliverable dates, and test equipment deliveries against need dates, and escalate when a date movesSupport interface control document development and review: data collection, consistency checking of budgets and interface values across documents, and identification of conflicts between subsystem inputsTrack facilities and test infrastructure readiness: laboratory space allocation, readiness checklists ahead of gates covering power, cooling, data acquisition, and safety, and test schedule conflicts across teamsSupport supplier coordination: meeting logistics and minutes, deliverable and action tracking, intake and routing of supplier data packages, and checks of supplier data against the applicable specificationSupport certification and review package assembly, including document collection, format and completeness checks, traceability of evidence to requirements, and configuration control of the delivered packagePrepare integration and schedule status material for internal gates and for SRR, PDR, CDR, Test Readiness Review, and Manufacturing Readiness ReviewGrow into ownership of a schedule area, an interface set, and a coordination thread, with mentorship from the senior integration and planning engineerCommunicate progress, status, and issues honestly and early, including when something is not workingPerform additional job duties as assigned Qualifications To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty satisfactorily. The requirements listed below are representative of the knowledge, skill, and/or ability required.

An equivalent combination of education and experience may be consideredWorking proficiency in Microsoft Project, including task logic, dependencies, baselines, and progress status, or demonstrated ability to reach that level quicklyInterest in planning and schedule work as engineering work. The successful candidate wants to understand why the network is built the way it is, not only to update percentages in itWorking knowledge of electrical power system fundamentals sufficient to follow a technical discussion and to recognize when two numbers in two documents disagreeStrong organization and follow-through. This job is measured by whether open items close, not by whether they were recordedClear technical writing, and the ability to produce meeting minutes, status material, and review packages that other people can act onCuriosity, initiative, and the willingness to ask a question early rather than deliver a wrong answer lateComfort working in an ambiguous, fast-moving environment where the answer is often not yet written down Preferred Qualifications Internship, co-op, or project experience in spacecraft, aerospace, defense, or other high reliability programsExposure to Primavera P6, earned value reporting, or program planning and control practiceExposure to interface control documents, requirements management tools such as Jama or DOORS, or configuration management practiceExposure to laboratory or test operations, including equipment procurement, facility readiness, or test schedulingFamiliarity with space program standards such as SSP 30237, SSP 50005, SSP 50094, or NASA-STD-3001Engineer in Training certification, Certified Associate in Project Management, or progress toward professional certification Core Skills Passion for space and the missionEntrepreneurial, growth mindsetHigh EQ and ability to collaborate within teams and cross-functionallyTech-solutioning in using systems and tools to move smarter and faster Core Competencies Embody our core values of leadership, innovation, and teamwork.
