Nasa careers entry level full#
This unique opportunity is part of the Mechanical Systems Engineering, Fabrication and Test Division which engages in research, technology development, and the creation of advanced mechanical, thermal, propulsion, and electronic packaging systems with expertise that spans the full breath of mechanical disciplines and is applied from architectural concept development through operations. Located in Pasadena, California, JPL has a campus-like environment situated on 177 acres in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains and offers a work environment unlike any other: we inspire passion, foster innovation, build collaboration, and reward excellence. If you’re driven to discover, create, and inspire something that lasts a lifetime and beyond, you’re ready for JPL. Your mission-your opportunity-is to seek out the answers that bring us one step closer. We build upon ideas that have guided generations, then share our discoveries to inspire generations to come. We ask the biggest questions, then search the universe for answers-literally. New ideas are all around us, but only a few will change the world.
