These are immediate interviews for the right candidates.We are looking for a
Mechanical Systems Engineer to join our team supporting advanced spaceflight programs
The engineer will support the development, analysis, integration, verification, testing, and operation of spacecraft mechanical systems. Areas may include
mechanical/docking systems, separation and ordnance systems, mechanisms, payloads, and cargo systems. The role provides an opportunity to contribute across multiple technical areas while developing depth in one or more mechanical disciplines.
Key Responsibilities- Evaluate mechanical system requirements, designs, analyses, CAD models, test plans, and technical data for technical adequacy and compliance.
- Perform independent mechanical analysis to support design, integration, and system performance assessments.
- Support mechanical/docking, separation/ordnance, mechanisms, payload, and cargo engineering activities as program needs require.
- Evaluate mechanical interfaces with structures, thermal, electrical, propulsion, avionics, mission design, and other spacecraft systems.
- Support manufacturing, integration, qualification, and testing activities, including evaluation of test results and resolution of technical issues.
- Support requirements verification, technical reviews, and development of variances, exceptions, waivers, and other technical dispositions.
- Identify technical risks and communicate findings and recommendations to engineering and program leadership.
- Work effectively with multidisciplinary engineering teams and external partners.
Required Qualifications- B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering or related engineering discipline.
- 2+ years of engineering experience in mechanical systems, structures, aerospace hardware, spacecraft systems, or related fields.
- Experience with mechanical design, analysis, integration, or testing.
- Experience with CAD tools such as Creo, NX, SolidWorks, AutoCAD, or equivalent.
- Experience with mechanical/structural analysis methods, including FEA.
- Strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills.
Preferred Qualifications- Experience with one or more of the following:
- Spacecraft docking systems
- Separation systems and ordnance
- Spacecraft mechanisms
- Payload or cargo systems
- Experience with spaceflight hardware through design, integration, test, or operations.
- Experience with requirements development or verification and systems engineering.
- Proficiency with CAD/FEA tools and Python, MATLAB, or similar engineering tools.
