Description
Leidos offers an excellent opportunity for a Project Engineer to join the Cargo Mission Contract (CMC) team, focusing on the Crew Provisions Hardware System. This position involves sustaining tasks for CMC hardware and supporting projects related to the development and certification of spaceflight hardware for NASA's International Space Station (ISS), Orion, Human Landing System (HLS), Gateway (GWY), and Commercial Programs. The crew provisions hardware systems oversee both flight and non-flight hardware for crew members in preparation throughout their time in space. This role demands flexible and, at times, expedited support to ensure crew members are properly equipped for their missions. Alongside a team of colleagues, shared responsibilities for this role include maintaining, repairing, researching, developing, preparing, delivering, and managing inventory for both flight and non-flight hardware items. The role requires working with commercial software such as IBM Maximo, Microsoft Office Suite, and MS SharePoint, as well as CMC custom software. Support for tests and other activities may be needed outside of regular working hours.
