Long shot, but I'm looking for someone with experience in spacecraft propulsion systems who is interested in solving (or better still, forestalling) exciting problems on a wide variety of interesting spacecraft. Must be a US citizen willing to at least occasionally show up at an office in Southern California, and at the moment I need chemical more than electric propulsion experience. I'll probably also be looking for a new graduate or otherwise inexperienced hire later this year, but the position I have open now requires at least two years of industry experience and a STEM master's (or a BS and 5+ years).

Email me at [my.name]@aero.org ; or just go to the Aerospace Corporation web page and look for "Spacecraft Propulsion Engineer" under job openings. If you're not familiar with the company, we're basically the USAF (ok, USSF) tech support department for spacecraft with problems beyond the ken of civil servants or military officers, occasionally also supporting NASA and other government agencies with spaceships, and we're considered one of the nicest places in the industry to work (e.g. actual 40-hour weeks and private offices).
