The Principal Mechanical Engineer will design, analyze, and test mechanical structures for satellites, leading projects from concept to qualification.

The role involves leading the manufacturing strategy for subsystems, collaborating on design for manufacturability, and implementing advanced manufacturing techniques for satellite production.

Develop and verify software for spacecraft control systems, implementing architecture for real-time performance and fault tolerance. Contribute to mission-critical code execution on large spacecraft for various subsystems and ensure reliable software operation through testing and integration.

Lead mechanical design, development, testing, and analysis for a high-power electric propulsion system. Define requirements, produce 3D models and drawings, execute test plans, manage vendors, iterate prototypes, and deliver qualified flight hardware through production and flight.

Lead development and execution of avionics and high-power electric propulsion test programs, design and fabricate test hardware and harnessing, develop test automation and drivers, run environmental and hot-fire tests, analyze results, troubleshoot anomalies, and manage acceptance testing and test assets to deliver flight avionics at production scale.

Design, implement, verify, and support FPGA firmware for spacecraft subsystems including networking, RF, power, and real-time control. Develop RTL (VHDL/SystemVerilog), validate with simulation and hardware-in-the-loop, support integration/testing, and build tools/infrastructure for reliable, high-speed FPGA solutions across the vehicle.

Manage material requirements planning (MRP) to ensure timely availability of parts for production. Create Clear-to-Build reports, forecast demand, allocate materials, monitor inventory and master data, and collaborate with engineering, production, procurement, and finance to minimize shortages and improve material flow and lead times.

The Senior Ground Software Engineer will design and implement software for satellite operations, collaborate with internal teams, and mentor engineers. Responsibilities include facilitating software reviews and supporting customers during ground tests and satellite operations.

As Principal Mechanisms Engineer, you will design and test coarse pointing assemblies for large aperture optical payloads, ensuring high-performance satellite systems through collaboration and innovative manufacturing processes.

The Principal Optical Systems Engineer will design and manage the life cycle of optical systems for satellites, involving manufacturing, testing, and deployment. Responsibilities include system architecture, optical design, vendor leadership, and team mentorship.
