Senior ATLO (Assembly, Test, & Launch Operations) Engineer - Millennium Space Systems

About the role

The Assembly, Test, and Launch Operations (ATLO) Team at Millennium Space Systems is responsible for planning and executing all space vehicle-level integration and test activities. The Senior ATLO Engineer leads the planning and execution of satellite programs from assembly through launch, interfaces with various teams, and drives improvements to increase production throughput.

Responsibilities

• Lead the planning and execution of a satellite program from assembly through launch
• Review initial engineering drawings and schematics to anticipate build challenges and create manufacturability improvements
• Interface with technicians, quality inspectors, and engineers in a cleanroom to guide troubleshooting of non-conformances and provide go/no-go judgments
• Integrate, test, and troubleshoot development platforms for flight vehicles to generate high-quality procedures and understand system functions
• Act as a signature authority on test and assembly procedures, process plans, and new program initiatives
• Lead environmental testing of satellites (EMI/C, Dynamics, TVAC) and launch integration campaigns, including responsibilities for overarching plans, maintaining schedules, and staffing
• Drive improvements to increase production throughput, reduce space vehicle build hours and quality issues, and remove waste from complex processes
• Utilize statistical and analytical tools to monitor performance metrics of teams and product execution plans

Requirements

• Education/experience typically acquired through advanced technical education from an accredited course of study in engineering, engineering technology, computer science, engineering data science, mathematics, physics, or chemistry (e.g. Bachelor)
• Minimum of 5+ years’ experience in manufacturing, mechanical, electrical, assembly sequencing, materials and process engineering, or similar field in Aerospace or Automotive or Commercial Industries
• Minimum of 7+ years’ experience in space systems
• Bring expertise to one of the following areas: medium-rate production (10-100 complex products per year), mechanical integration, electrical testing, spacecraft integration, program leadership, industrial operations, or systems engineering
• Knowledge of satellite manufacturing engineering principles, standards, and concepts
• Experience writing work instructions and procedures for critical aerospace parts in a production environment
• Experience with common hardware-integration tools such as NI LabVIEW, DAQ hardware, electrical power supplies, signal analyzers, and multimeters
• Experience with version control, understanding of basic software concepts, Python, C++, Linux environments, and computer network architecture
• Proficiency with statistics, data analysis, cost/benefit analysis, business intelligence, and data visualization (e.g. PowerBI, Tableau)
• Proficiency in tracking tools such as MRP/ERP, Jira, MS Project, manufacturing execution systems, Teamcenter/PLM, and configuration management
• Experience with CAD software and engineering drawings
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, ability to make presentations to engineering, team members, customers, and management
• Experience working with a union represented workforce
• Willingness to work different shifts, travel to launch site/integration locations, and support critical mission milestones when surge support is needed
