CEDAR email: Job Posting: Space Physics Instrument/Mission Leader, APL

[Cohen, Ian J.]

Hello all,

The Solar and Space Physics Group at Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) seeks a Space Physics Instrument/Mission Leader to join our ~50 full- and part-time professional staff and postdoctoral researchers. Our staff conduct original scientific research, provide scientific leadership of instruments that measure solar and space physics phenomena, lead national space physics initiatives, bridge research to operations to research for space weather and national security applications, and support the design, implementation, and operation of a variety of spaceflight missions including Parker Solar Probe (PSP) and Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe (IMAP). The group operates in close conjunction with APL’s Atmospheres and Ionospheres Group, bringing together scientific expertise across all realms of space physics. We take pride in our extensive involvement in instrument development and mission concept formulation.
This position is a fantastic opportunity to get involved in mission and instrument development and leadership at a key space science and mission implementation institution. Responsibilities include leading instrument development efforts through internally- and externally-funded development grants; leading proposal efforts to NASA and other sponsors for competed space physics missions and instruments; developing scientific requirements and traceability for space physics mission concepts and instruments; and conducting high-impact original research.
Interested parties should apply using APL’s careers webpage: https://careers.jhuapl.edu/science/jobs/56684?lang=en-us.
