The Space Telescope Science Institute is seeking an experienced Flight Operations Manager will establish and lead a team of highly skilled personnel to conduct day to day operations of the James Webb Space Telescope from the Science and Operations Center (S&OC) located in Baltimore MD.
In the period prior to the launch of JWST the Flight Operations Manager will work closely with STScI, NASA and the Observatory Contractor to establish and implement plans for pre-flight operations preparatory activities including Flight Operations Team, training, procedure development, ground segment testing and certification.
The Flight Operations Manager will ensure the readiness of the Flight Operations Team and flight operations products for each of the pre-launch review milestones.
The Flight Operations Manager will work with the other S&OC managers to help ensure that the flight operations facilities satisfy the mission requirements, and will participate in planning and overseeing flight operations system tests.
When JWST is launched the Flight Operations Manager is expected to transition to the role of managing and providing technical direction of the Flight Operations Team for JWST operations, engineering tests and simulations. This responsibility includes assuring around the clock Flight Operations coverage of JWST operations. The Flight Operations Manager will work closely with the NASA Mission Operations Manager to ensure the on-going health and safety of the Observatory on orbit.
The Flight Operations Manager will coordinate with the JWST Science Operations Manager to maintain a full science plan, coordinate engineering and science operations activities and to ensure that the observatory achieves peak science observational efficiency.
Requirements
Suitable candidates will have an advanced knowledge of spacecraft flight operations with a minimum of 7 to 10 years of experience as a member or lead of a Flight Operations Team for an operational spacecraft and several years in a leadership position.
Experience with L2, L1 or deep space operations will be considered an asset as will familiarity with use of the DSN.
Prior experience with scientific spacecraft is also valued, particularly with astronomical observatories. Candidates require a college degree in an applicable field of study.
STScI offers competitive salaries, comprehensive benefits and a stimulating work environment. Interested candidates are requested to complete an on-line application, attach a resume and cover letter in the "Resume Upload Section." Please include job #10-0003 in the filenames.
