Mechanical Engineer (Payload Module Jettison Systems)
Stoke Space , Kent, Washington +1
The role
We're looking for a Mechanical Engineer with rock-solid fundamentals, a love of mechanisms, and a bias for action to own the payload fairing jettison system on Nova. You'll own the system end to end: the separation and clearance analysis, the pneumatics, actuators, and mechanisms that make it work, the integrated tests that prove it, and the operation and reuse of that hardware after flight. You'll carry the current system to flight and help define the next generation of separation and deployment systems for our reusable fairing. If you want one critical system that is yours from analysis to flight, this role is for you.
What you will do
- Own the fairing jettison system from requirements definition and analysis through verification, vehicle integration, flight operations, refurbishment, and reuse
