Candidates are being considered for cluster hires within the College of Engineering in the general area of space systems and infrastructure networks (SSI-NET) which includes all aerospace research areas related to space systems, spacecraft, and space environments. Areas of particular interest include, but not limited to, on-orbit and in situ manufacturing, novel space structures and materials, space robotics, learning and autonomy for space applications, remote sensing and spaceborne imaging, smart habitats, and space constellations. Candidates will be expected to complement existing A&A research areas and across campus. While the SSI-NET cluster extends over multiple departments, this particular hire will have a primary appointment and teaching responsibilities in Aeronautics & Astronautics.

The base salary range for this position will be $13,800.00 to $16,200.00 per month (with a nine-month service period), commensurate with experience and qualifications, or as mandated by a U.S. Department of Labor prevailing wage determination.

The department is also integral to the unique and vibrant aerospace ecosystem in the Seattle area. Our faculty members embrace a culture of excellence and inclusion, are committed to graduate and undergraduate education, and develop innovative research programs.

A&A is committed to excellence in research and teaching. The successful candidate is expected to develop a vigorous and innovative externally-funded research program, to provide high-quality teaching that integrates research with instruction at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, and to participate in service activities.

We look forward to learning how the applicant's experience or future plans for teaching, research, and service would support our commitment to diversity and inclusion.
