Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs

The Integration & Test Engineer will define test plans for satellites, collaborate with engineering teams, operate spacecraft, troubleshoot issues, and lead vehicle operations.

Develop physics-based spacecraft simulation models, simulation hardware drivers, and software tools. Analyze data and investigate anomalies to resolve bugs, while supporting integration, testing, and on-orbit spacecraft operations. The internship involves control systems, spacecraft subsystems, sensors, actuators, GNC algorithms, and cyber-physical simulators. Candidates need experience with Rust, C++, or another compiled language, plus relevant coursework in numerical methods, differential equations, mechanics, and electromagnetism.

Build and evolve developer platforms, golden deployment paths, and AI-assisted development guardrails on Amazon EKS. Responsibilities include improving developer experience, resilience, observability, security, cost efficiency, CI/CD governance, progressive delivery, documentation, and automated remediation. The role also owns platform roadmaps, lifecycle management, policy enforcement, and cross-team enablement while mentoring engineers and supporting reliable production operations.

Own the design, fabrication, testing, and deployment of custom tooling, fixtures, material-handling systems, and ground support equipment for large satellite production. Lead tooling projects from requirements through production, perform structural analysis, collaborate with internal and external fabrication teams, support qualification testing, and validate tool performance with customers and production teams.

Owns component and subsystem development testing across structural, thermal, fluid, dynamic, and electromechanical systems. Responsibilities include defining test campaigns, designing and fabricating test hardware and fixtures, operating test equipment, collecting and analyzing data, troubleshooting performance issues, communicating findings, and improving test processes. The role supports prototype validation, production testing, and qualification testing for satellite hardware.

Build and operate platform capabilities for Amazon EKS, including multi-tenancy, namespace governance, workload scaling, ingress and egress controls, and observability. Develop documentation and diagnostics, support versioning and migrations, automate code deployment and testing policies, and improve platform adoption and resource lifecycle management. Collaborate with engineers, architects, and stakeholders to deliver the enterprise information systems roadmap.

Define and negotiate spacecraft mission concepts, architectures, requirements, payload-to-bus interfaces, and concepts of operations. Lead early customer engagements, technical discussions, study reviews, and proposal activities. Coordinate multidisciplinary engineering teams across avionics, software, propulsion, thermal, vehicle engineering, and integration, assembly, and testing to develop executable solutions for national security missions.

Develop and test real-time, fault-tolerant spacecraft control software for propulsion, guidance, thermal, power, and communications subsystems. Responsibilities include designing state machines, analyzing data and anomalies, supporting subsystem integration and testing, and building reliable development infrastructure. The intern will own an end-to-end software project and support spacecraft on-orbit operations while collaborating with engineers and technicians.

Supports spacecraft vehicle build, integration, testing, and manufacturing operations. Responsibilities include maintaining HITL tables, developing test procedures, troubleshooting vehicle issues, designing ground support equipment and tooling, improving manufacturing processes, creating MES-integrated tools, demonstrating prototype manufacturing techniques, developing production build flows, and integrating flight hardware. The internship provides hands-on exposure to satellite structures, mechanisms, electronics, testing, and advanced manufacturing technologies.

Design and develop spacecraft electronics ranging from PCBAs to full systems, including power, digital, and mixed-signal designs. Responsibilities include component selection, circuit board design, board bring-up, debugging, environmental qualification testing, spacecraft integration, test equipment development, and test-script creation. The intern will collaborate with engineers, technicians, managers, and external stakeholders during a three-month internship.
