Overview:
Do you excel in an environment that values exploration and discovery? We have a universe of opportunities waiting for you!
The Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) is NASA’s lead center for robotic exploration of the solar system. Our core competency is the end-to-end implementation of unprecedented robotic space missions to study Earth, the Solar System, and the Universe.
JPL, located in Pasadena, California, has a casual, 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.
We are proud to be part of NASA and Caltech, as we explore the universe and make history through new discoveries.
We aim to do things never done before and to go places few can go. We dare mighty things…do you?
Responsibilities:
This unique opportunity is part of the Occupational Safety Program Office Section which is committed to ensuring safety through identification and management of health and safety risks.
To further inspire safety across the Lab, we are looking to hire a Pressure Systems Manager (PSM) reporting to the Industrial Hygiene Group Supervisor.
As a Pressure Systems Manager (PSM)you will be working primarily with JPL’s Pressure Systems Service Group, which is responsible for the engineering analysis leading to certification and in service inspection of JPL ground based pressure vessels. You will also work with engineers, research personnel and facilities technicians to ensure the implementation of NASA/JPL pressure vessel requirements.
Will be responsible for:
• All aspects of pressure systems/safety including interpretation and application of Pressure System-related General Industry Safety Orders, Pressure Vessel Safety Orders, and ASME Codes.
• Implementing the NASA PVS Standards and providing guidance for Laboratory personnel as needed.
• Ensure OSHA compliance by developing and maintaining Pressure System safety policies and procedures.
• Certify all ground-based PVS in accordance with NASA-STD- 8719.17.
• Partner with other engineers and management on design, development, unique methods, specifications, and oversight of highly complex systems
• Document and maintain the certification status of PVS to indicate all exceptions, waivers, non-conformance, special constraints, or instructions required for safe operation of the PVS.
• Approves deviations from established policies and procedures
• Develop safety programs to protect employees/facilities against pressure vessel/systems incident and/or risk.
• Conduct pressure vessels assessments, incident investigations/recommendations to determine and maintain regulatory compliance.
• Review, assess, and recommend guideline for pressure vessels and components being procured through P-Card and PO’s.
• Ensure compliance on all applicable Pressure System-related Environmental Health and Safety registrations e.g., air tank permits and licenses
• Develop, augment and implement the pressure vessels safety training programs.
• Chair the Pressure Vessels Safety Committee.
• POC for pressure vessel/systems safety audits at JPL and remote sites, e.g. GDSCC, Table Mt.
• Defines, coordinates, and integrates technical issues to ensure that the total system satisfies requirements with acceptable risk.
Qualifications:
• Bachelors degree in Mechanical, Aeronautical Engineering or related discipline with a minimum of 9 years of related experience; Masters degree in similar disciplines with a minimum of 7 years of related experience; or PhD in similar disciplines with a minimum of 5 years related experience.
• Wide-ranging experience and advanced knowledge in one or more of the following areas: Engineering and Fabrication of Pressure Vessels, Stress Analysis, Hazardous Materials, Hazard Analysis, Code Calculations, Materials of Construction, Welding, Pipe Risk Analysis and General Pipeline/Pressure Vessel Safety.
• Extensive understanding and wide application of advanced mechanical engineering principles, theories, concepts and techniques in Pressure Vessels Design, Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), Schematics and Engineering Drawings, Configuration Control, Pressure Relief Valves, Repairs and re-rating of Pressure Vessels, Boilers and Air Compressors.
• Advanced knowledge of applicable industry and/or academic practices and standards in California OSHA and DOT, ASME Codes, NASA Standards, risk-based inspection (RBI) program for fixed equipment and piping in the hydrocarbon and chemical process industries, tank inspection, repair, alteration and reconstruction.
• Extensive knowledge of handling and storage of cryogen liquids, and pressurized gasses.
• Complete knowledge of industry standards, regulatory interpretation, guidance and leadership in ASME Codes, Hazardous Materials Management, De-rated Vessels, DOT Cylinders and Propellant Safety.
• Advanced knowledge in independent and group problem solving skills to establish ways to eliminate hazards and avoid risk.
• Substantial ability to multi-task and a highly demonstrated experience working in pressure systems engineering, and effectively interfacing with all levels of management, operations personnel and technical activities.
• Extensive knowledge and substantial use of common computer tools including the use of CAD
• Excellent verbal, written and presentation communication skills.
Desired Skills:
• Professional Certification in PE, Safety Professional (CSP) or working toward a certification.
• A strong working knowledge and experience with ASME Pressure Vessel and Pressure Piping Codes, Hazardous Materials Transportation, and Federal, State, and local regulatory compliance requirements is preferred.
• Ability to work well with cross-functional teams, design engineers, line management, and project management
• Strong ability, desire, and flexibility to take on assignments outside area of expertise.
• Advanced understanding and practical application of Federal and Calif. Pressure System-related safety, health and environmental regulations and reporting procedures.
• Experience in Process Safety Management.
• Excellent training skills.
• Strong background and or familiarity in engineering, chemistry, and hazardous materials.
• Strong background and understanding of:
o NASA NPD 8710.5D Policy for Pressure Vessels and Pressurized Systems
o NASA-STD-8719.17, NASA Requirements for Ground-Based Pressure Vessels and Pressurized Systems (PVS).
o ANSI/AIAA S-080, Space Systems Metallic Pressure Vessels, Pressurized Structures, and Pressure Components
o 29 CFR Part 1910, Occupational Safety and Health Standards
o ASME B&PVC Section VIII
o ASME B31.1 and B31.3
o API 510, 570, 572, 579, 580, 581
o ANSI/NBIC NB-23
