Upcoming Heliophysics Civil Servant Position at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center

The Heliophysics and Planetary Science Branch at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, plans to offer a civil service position to conduct research and develop applications to solve challenging solar physics problems. Outstanding candidates have the potential to be selected for federal employment, joining more than 30 other federal employees, academic staff, and contractors supporting solar physics and space weather science efforts within the Branch, which is part of the Science and Technology Office at Marshall Space Flight Center.

 

A Research Astrophysicist position will be offered for a researcher and technical authority in solar physics, with emphasis on the analysis of current data sets and the development of new measurement and observational techniques designed to further understanding of natural phenomena and physical processes of the Sun. The selected candidate will participate in the development of future space missions with responsibility for leading and directing the work of multidisciplinary teams of engineers and scientists. The candidate will have opportunities to lead the development of research proposals for new activities, execute funded projects, and share their accomplishments through conference participation and appropriate peer-reviewed literature.

 

The position is expected to be announced in March 2021 under the category of Research Astrophysicist and at the GS-14 grade level. The formal announcement of the opportunity and related requirements will be posted in the near future at USAJobs (https://usajobs.gov) and can be found by searching with keyword NASA and location of Huntsville, Alabama.
