About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Execute qualification and acceptance vibration ("shake") tests for new satellites and subsystems, and design and build the satellite-level qualification mass model used to run them.
  • Design, build, and maintain the Mechanical Ground Support Equipment (MGSE) needed to test and integrate the new generation of spacecraft.
  • Lead flight model integration for the new spacecraft generation, creating the AIT procedures used to run it and transferring that knowledge to the production team.
  • Feed testing and integration findings back to the design engineering teams, from early concept through late prototyping, and drive the design changes that come out of it.

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • Hands-on experience with mechanical AIT and test campaigns, comfortable doing the work yourself rather than only directing it.
  • A can-do attitude and a hands-on engineering mindset, able to work both independently and as part of a team.
  • Comfortable working under pressure and tight timelines, since test campaigns can involve intense, demanding periods.
  • Experience with vibration testing and mechanical validation of hardware, and designing MGSE for satellite testing.
  • Proficiency with CAD tools, and the ability to create and interpret manufacturing drawings.
  • Experience in aerospace or satellite hardware development.
  • Hands-on experience in satellite assembly.
  • Familiarity with finite element analysis tools to support test setup validation.
