About the Role
Onyx Aerospace is seeking a highly experienced Expert Technical Contributor to join our flagship Onyx CONNECT program. This full-time position is ideal for a former senior government technical leader —such as a NASA, NOAA, or DoD civil servant—who has transitioned from federal service (e.g., via the Deferred Resignation Program or similar) and is ready to continue driving innovation across space and defense missions.
This role offers a chance to work on cutting-edge programs—Artemis, SLS, Commercial LEO, and national defense platforms like Golden Dome and space situational awareness—while mentoring emerging teams and shaping future architectures. You’ll operate in an influential, high-trust role that draws on your deep subject matter knowledge, leadership experience, and strategic insight.
Key Responsibilities
- Serve as a principal technical advisor across NASA, defense, and commercial aerospace projects
- Lead or support systems engineering reviews, architecture assessments, and mission planning efforts
- Provide in-depth guidance on critical path technologies such as propulsion, avionics, flight software, safety, and crewed systems
- Contribute to program milestone decisions, technical strategy sessions, and customer briefings
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams including government, industry, and academic partners
- Mentor early- and mid-career engineers, cultivating a culture of excellence and rigor
