NSF’s National Optical-Infrared Astronomy Research Laboratory (NOIRLab) is an AURA-managed center headquartered in Tucson, Arizona. NSF’s NOIRLab operates the Gemini Observatory, Vera C. Rubin Observatory, Mid-Scale Observatories (MSO, which includes Kitt Peak National Observatory and the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory) and Community Science and Data Center (CSDC) in the United States and in Chile. NOIRLab is the US national center for ground-based observational nighttime astronomy, and has sites of operations in Hawai'i, Arizona, and Chile. NOIRLab launched in October 2019, with 450 FTEs and an ~$80M USD annual budget.
NOIRLab Engineering Services (ES) provides integrated, matrixed engineering capabilities for operations and projects to all NOIRLab science programs. The current ES organization is grouped into four (4) disciplines, mechanical, electrical, optical and software engineering, with a total staff number of 130 FTE between engineers and technicians. To complete the ES organization, we are creating the Systems Engineering & Project Management group (SE/PM). This group will be the home of all system engineer and project management experts to support NOIRLab’s operations and project portfolio, like instrumentation development (adaptive optics), software development for USELTP and the Community Science and Data Center (CSDC) or system performance monitoring.
The Head of Systems Engineering & Project Management is responsible for developing and implementing a Framework to deliver common processes to deal with stakeholders (and user) expectations for scientific and technical problems, define functional, performance and interface requirements, develop design solutions, and strategies and plans from implementation, integration, verification, and validation of chosen solutions. Also, the Head of Systems Engineering and Project Management should develop strategies, processes, and plans for overall project and systems management, configuration management, risk management, requirements management, maintenance management strategies, RAMS, planning & scheduling, and project management.
We foresee the SE/PM group to provide expertise and capabilities in the following areas:
- Project/Product oriented systems engineering. Capabilities to support development projects from initiation to closure, including requirements definition and management, project trade or feasibility studies, interface control, RAMS & quality assurance.
- Process oriented systems engineering. Capabilities to support work processes, like systems maintenance strategy for optimization, spare parts definition, and management, KPI tracking and benchmarking, process optimization.
Duty station is at one of the three locations of NOIRLab with international travel required to visit the other sites
**Essential Functions**:
- Defines Systems Engineering Framework through stakeholder feedback and functional analysis of the SE group to deliver the NOIRLab SEP (Systems Engineering Plan).
- Plans and allocates resources to Programs and Projects, alignment of expertise to specific needs, with a focus on quality of service and staff growth opportunities.
