The copy also doesn't seem to be written by someone with a good command of English, even ChatGPT would do better

>technologists inside the systems that power American spaceflight, aeronautics, and scientific discovery. You work on real missions, alongside the teams building them, and your contributions move from concept to operation. For a few days, access is granted to this work. The number is extremely limited. The window only lasts four days. Will you answer the call?

I don't see any big trouble with the quoted text. The language is a bit nerdy, and a bit bureaucratic, but that's exactly what I'd expect from NASA.

This has got Russell Vought's fingerprints on it, mark my words.

There's some way this is enshittified.

It's scattered and disorganized like this administration.

You work on real missions, alongside the teams building them

OK alongside, but not ON, the teams building them? So apparently not actually building them myself? And also, does anyone build missions, or do they perhaps build systems?

For a few days, access is granted to this work.

Access is granted to whom? And to what work, the work I'll supposedly be doing? Hopefully yeah I have access to my own work. Or do you mean the work of the people alongside whom I'll be working on missions (the builders of the missions that is)?

The number is extremely limited.

What number?

The window only lasts four days.

Oh now there's a window analogy too. And they already said "a few days" so one of the two is redundant.

You would make a good technical writer!

Are you serious? Those aren't even coherent sentences!?

This was the first thing I noticed. The first sentence is not a grammatical or sensical sentence as far as I can tell.

Also who are they expecting to get with a hiring window open for 4 days? People susceptible to manufactured urgency I guess... these are the tactics that phishing scams use.

Its prob some H1B Indian Contractor poop skin that wrote this tbh. Gotta love the charity jobs that the USA gives out to all of unqualified India. Our tax dollars hard at work...
