About the Role
At Impulse, Avionics Mechanical Engineers own the mechanical design of the hardware that enables spacecraft avionics to survive and perform in space. In this role, you'll design everything from PCBA enclosures and mounting brackets to higher-complexity assemblies such as battery packs, antennas, and optical devices. You'll work across disciplines to turn ambitious vehicle concepts into flight-ready hardware.
This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys moving quickly, solving multidisciplinary problems, and taking designs from early architecture through test and qualification. You will partner closely with electrical, structures, thermal, dynamics, and integration engineers to create efficient, high-performing product architectures, owning designs from concept through analysis, prototype, test, iteration, and qualification.
