Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs

Design, implement, and maintain test and automation software for data acquisition, hardware control, and user-facing GUIs. Collaborate with test operations through the full test lifecycle: design, integration, deployment, debugging, and support. Review and write code, work onsite, and deliver innovative solutions for testing operations.

Perform structural and thermal analysis and develop/maintain finite element models for optical flight hardware. Ensure optical alignment and survivability through launch, thermal, and vibration environments. Support STOP analysis with optical engineers to meet alignment sensitivity, detector tolerances, boresight stability, wavefront error, and pointing requirements.

Design and develop opto-mechanical hardware for spacecraft optical systems, including lens barrels, telescope structures, mounts, baffles, and precision mechanisms. Create CAD models, drawings, GD&T, BOMs, and test fixtures while collaborating with optical engineers to ensure alignment, stability, manufacturability, and qualification for launch and on-orbit environments.

Design and deliver spacecraft solenoid valves from concept through production: create CAD models and drawings, perform fluid/thermal/structural/magnetic analysis, support procurement, fabrication, assembly, and test, and resolve technical issues.

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.

Design, test, and deliver flight RF embedded software for space missions. Implement RF communications requirements, DSP and calibration algorithms, RF control algorithms, FPGA/baseband bring-up, and collaborate with ground teams to develop and test satellite-to-ground data pipelines and RF system integration.

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.
