This senior mechanical engineering role focuses on the full lifecycle design of electric propulsion systems, specifically Hall thrusters and their vehicle interfaces, within a collaborative space hardware team. Key responsibilities include designing and analyzing complex assemblies for extreme environments, performing structural and thermal finite element analyses, and leading discrepancy investigations from initial concept through production. The position appeals to engineers who enjoy guiding space hardware from design to flight operations while working with exotic materials and high-energy plasmas. The role offers the opportunity to own critical hardware delivery in a startup environment with a focus on innovation and cross-functional collaboration.
