The Space Dynamics Laboratory (SDL) is looking for a cost analyst to provide program financial management from proposal development through program execution. As a Research and Development (R&D) organization, SDL primarily supports programs that require the development of new and innovative technologies. Though some similarities may exist from program to program, each program is unique and requires discrete assessment of the resources needed to meet the requirements outlined in the Statement of Work (SOW) and contract. Cost analysts work closely with program managers, schedulers, and engineering teams to identify program resources and timelines to create proposal budgets and detailed cost volumes, and to perform financial tracking, analyzing, reporting, and forecasting for awarded programs. This position provides opportunities to work in a rewarding, team-oriented environment with room for upward and lateral mobility. Pay is commensurate with experience.

Required Qualifications:

• BS in a business-related field
• General accounting skills and up-to-date computer skills with proficiency in Microsoft Excel and Word
• Detail oriented and proactive
• Superior organizational and interpersonal skills
• Ability to communicate clearly with personnel of varying technical and professional levels
• Ability to proactively integrate within various teams, taking ownership of role responsibilities while effectively collaborating with other team members in their respective roles
• Flexible schedule to accommodate a deadline-driven workload
• Must be a US citizen

• Must be able to obtain a DoD security clearance if necessary

• Flexible work schedules that fit your style-every Friday off, every other Friday off, or simply traditional hours
• Generous paid leisure and sick leave, ensuring you never miss a special event
• Favorable company locations with average commute times of less than 15 minutes
• High-quality, low-cost health, dental, and life insurance
• A 14.2% employer retirement contribution into a 401(a) account-no matching required!
• Utah State University undergraduate tuition discounts of 50%, full reimbursement for graduate tuition, and free course audits for employees and dependents meeting eligibility requirements
• A great, highly educated team that works together to solve some of the most fascinating problems on (and off) our planet
• We are a growing company that maintains both a family feel and high retention rate with over 90% job satisfaction
• Relocation assistance available for most positions
