Launch Your Career Into Higher Orbit

Are you determined to work with Space Programs?

As an Amentum Space Exploration Division (ASED) intern, you will work alongside engineers and scientists on hardware development, payload integration & operations, laboratory & test operations, modeling & simulation, space environments, scientific research and propulsion systems for programs like Human Landing Systems, Space Launch Systems and the International Space Station

As a Propulsion Test intern, you will support senior engineers to oversee test design, conduct test operations, and configuration control in support of the Propulsion Test Branch at Marshall Space Flight Center.  Intern will review test requirements, develop facility activation and operation procedures, and review test data.  These tests will include launch vehicle systems, sub-systems, and component elements at various test facilities with the Propulsion Test Branch.  PTE intern will provide test design documents and operational procedures for cryogenic and ambient propellant systems (hydrogen, oxygen), solid propellants, ancillary support systems (nitrogen, air, helium, hydraulics), and mechanical systems (thrust reaction, thrust measurement, structural loads).

Job Duties will include\:

Work with a diverse team of civil servants and contractors to design, develop, setup, and perform propulsion and structural testing on space flight qualification hardware, and other mission critical hardware. Participate in safety meetings, task meetings, design reviews, and test readiness reviews as requested to support ASED and customer requirements. Develop and deliver reports and presentations as requested to support ASED and customer requirements via Power Point and other various software packages. Perform safety and certification training to support ASED and customer requirements.

Expectations included in the ASED Internship\:

You are expected to have a valid driver’s license and be able to provide your own transportation. You will be expected to attend MSFC facility scheduled tours, Technical Fellow talks, luncheons, and training sessions in addition to your work. We highly encourage you to participate in activities outside of work with your fellow interns. These activities will be scheduled, with your input, by your social coordinators and will be beneficial in forming a cohesive group and lasting friendships. *

Basic Qualifications

Current enrollment in a Bachelor of Science degree program in Electrical Engineering or related STEM degree is required. Prefer completion of your sophomore year. Degree program at an ABET accredited institution preferred.

Must be able to provide own transportation

The ideal candidate will be an engineer with the following skills\: 

Experience with Microsoft Office products such as PowerPoint, Excel, and Word. Excellent written and verbal communication skills. Basic knowledge of fluids and fluid dynamics of incompressible liquids (water, hydraulics).  Some knowledge of compressible gases and compressible gas dynamics (nitrogen, air, helium, hydrogen). Basic thermodynamics related to propulsion test systems (heat exchangers, cryogenic fluids, heat and energy cycles, etc.). Basic knowledge of mechanical structures and stress analysis of these structures. Familiarity with OSHA and ANSI standards. Familiarity with standard engineering practices, familiar with current steel design and welding codes and techniques (including welded and bolted connections), knowledgeable about industry-standard, vendor-supplied structural and mechanical components such as structural steel and aluminum shapes, steel fasteners, pipe and pipe components, tubing and fittings, hydraulic cylinders, screw jacks, hoisting equipment, etc.

Essential Functions

Work Environment\: 

Office and Laboratory environment. Requires ability to provide clear, concise, accurate and timely communication, both verbally and in writing (100%). Requires ability to interact professionally with co-workers, management, and client (100%). Requires travel in the domestic USA (<10%).

Physical Requirements\:

Requires sitting for extended periods of time in meetings with peers, management, and with our client at NASA facilities to discuss technical issues (10%). Also, requires sitting for extended periods of time at a desk to write reports and perform engineering tasks (80%). Requires ability to use stairs or elevators for access between floors and multiple buildings at NASA and our facilities (10%).  

Equipment and Machines\: 

Requires ability to operate a personal computer, a telephone, fax machine, copier, calculator, and other general office equipment (100%).

Attendance\: 

Normal workday 7\:30-4\:30, Monday thru Friday.  Minimal overtime may be required (10%) to meet schedule milestones and to support technical demands of the job. Regular attendance is a necessity, and adequate arrangements for delegating duties during absences are required. 

Other Essential Functions\:

The ability to work independently with minimal supervision, and to make rational decisions, and to exercise good judgment is essential (100%). Grooming and dress must be appropriate for the position and must not impose a safety risk/hazard to the employee or others.

Proof of U.S. Citizenship is required.
