Lockheed Martin looking for EE Controls Engineers
 
We have 2 openings for Control Engineers in Lockheed Martin Space which we haven’t been able to fill.
  • We are looking for people who can do dynamics and control of flexible bodies.
  • The work is in Palo Alto, CA, south of the San Francisco Bay Area; the person has to be onsite.
  • It’s cool work – on NASA’s Habitable worlds and on our own internal research and development.
  • The hiring manager Dan Know, daniel.w.kwon@lmco.com, is a great person to work for, and our HR Business Partner, Alina Thompson, alina.z.thompson@lmco.com, who could also answer questions about these roles.
 
They can be found on the Lockheed Martin careers website:
 
The requisition ids are:
                706400BR                          Controls Research Scientist, Staff
                709571BR                          Controls Research Scientist, Senior Staff
                706403 BR                          Controls Research Scientist, Principal
 
The reqs span the new PhD/post-doc level to the 15-year-experience level, which maybe an alum would be interested in. I suggest someone apply even if they don’t have exactly the number of years required.
