Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs

Design, deploy, and own deterministic, time-synchronized infrastructure for hardware test facilities. Lead test stand deployments, manage networking (PTP/NTP), servers, virtualization, storage, hybrid cloud, IaC, backup/recovery, and security alignment with enterprise standards while supporting CI/CD and test operations.

Design, build, and maintain standardized electrical test hardware (DAQ, controls, power distribution, enclosures). Create schematics, BOMs, wiring diagrams, and documentation. Support procurement, fabrication, integration, commissioning, and troubleshooting. Collaborate with test ops, software automation, and IT for deployment and configuration of test assets.

Design, implement, and verify GNC algorithms and software for spacecraft (LEO/GEO, upper stages, landers). Develop flight and simulation code, generate verification data, create reusable tools, resolve technical issues, and communicate designs. Mentor others and define GNC best practices for senior roles.

Lead design, analysis, testing, and implementation of in-house liquid propulsion components and subsystems. Plan and execute tests (engine hotfire, valve functional), perform thermal-fluids and materials trades, resolve technical issues, and coordinate across engineering, manufacturing, and operations to deliver flight hardware.

Lead design and optimization of in-space servicing missions: create CONOPS, maneuver plans, trajectory and budget analyses, build analysis tools, integrate results into proposals, engage customers, and coordinate with engineering for simulations and verification.

Perform fabrication, assembly, verification, and testing of propulsion, combustion, and electromechanical spacecraft hardware; maintain and calibrate test equipment; develop automated acceptance tests; troubleshoot fluid and electrical systems; create 2D drawings from 3D models; document results and provide technician training.

Install, wire, and troubleshoot industrial control systems for rocket propulsion test stands. Program/configure PLCs and VFDs, maintain electrical shop inventory, review/redline schematics using EPlan, and ensure compliance with NFPA/UL standards while supporting test operations.

Lead and grow a propulsion test engineering team to plan, execute, and analyze development and production propulsion tests. Oversee test operations, schedules, resources, and safety across multiple test sites; coordinate test infrastructure and data systems; drive root-cause investigations, corrective actions, and continuous improvement; ensure technical rigor and operational excellence.

Lead design, analysis, testing, and operation of in-space propulsion systems (bipropellant thrusters, pressure components). Define requirements, manage schedules, execute qualification tests, perform on-orbit mission support, and coordinate cross-functional teams to deliver reliable propulsion hardware and resolve anomalies.

Design, implement, and verify guidance, navigation, and control (GNC) systems for high-performance space vehicles. Develop algorithms, flight and simulation software, verification data, tools, and resolve technical issues while communicating with and supporting the broader engineering team.
