Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs

Design, evaluate, and validate thermal protection system materials for solid rocket motors. Conduct lab-scale simulated experiments, develop/analyze thermal models, define bonding and mechanical properties, support material sourcing and manufacturing validation, document processes, and collaborate across interdisciplinary teams to improve TPS fabrication and integration.

Design, analyze, integrate, and test propulsion and fluid-mechanical vehicle components from concept through flight demonstration. Support rapid hardware development, prototype assembly, test execution, failure investigations, DFM, and cross-functional collaboration with manufacturing, analysis, and customers.

Serve as technical authority and vehicle architect for a hypersonic missile/interceptor program, leading systems engineering, cross-disciplinary integration, test and flight readiness, technical risk mitigation, and mentoring subsystem leads through design reviews to production readiness.

Serve as technical owner for an avionics product transitioning to production: support hardware delivery, troubleshoot electrical and manufacturing issues, execute acceptance testing, manage production schedules, coordinate cross-functional teams, maintain configuration and documentation, and drive manufacturability and quality improvements to meet customer and program commitments.

Own and execute the Master Production Schedule for an assigned propulsion segment: convert demand into capacity-feasible supply plans, release and sequence manufacturing orders, run MRP and resolve reschedules/shortages, maintain planning parameters and safety stock strategies, drive shortage root-cause resolution, participate in SIOP, and continuously improve planning to protect schedule attainment.

Lead system safety engineering for rocket propulsion systems: analyze hardware and schematics for hazards, maintain explosive and radiation safety programs, review test and operational procedures, coordinate with regulators and stakeholders, prepare safety assessments and reports, and embed safety controls throughout product lifecycle.

Lead sourcing, negotiating, and procuring capital equipment and indirect materials. Manage RFIs/RFQs/RFPs, supplier selection, contract terms, deliveries, and installations. Build supplier relationships, monitor performance, resolve issues, ensure compliant purchasing documentation, and identify cost-saving opportunities while partnering with Engineering, Manufacturing, Facilities, Finance, and Operations.

Lead system safety activities for propulsion systems: analyze hardware and schematics for hazards, maintain explosive safety program, review test and operations procedures, coordinate training and permits, conduct safety assessments, interact with stakeholders and regulators, and produce safety reports and briefs.

Develop and maintain time-phased demand plans across short- and long-range horizons for assigned programs. Reconcile inputs from Program Management, Business Development, and Finance, publish forecast accuracy/bias, lead monthly SIOP demand reviews, build scenarios, produce dashboards and deliver executable plans to Supply Planning while tracking assumptions, risks, and changes.

Provide broad legal and administrative support to the General Counsel and Legal team: maintain corporate records, support subpoenas/audits/litigation, manage IP administration, track contracts and filings (including LDA/PAC), implement document retention and process improvements, triage legal requests, manage calendaring, billing, and the contract management system.
