Mechanical Engineer
Wardstone, El Segundo, California
The role
Overview
We’re hiring several Mechanical Engineers to design, build, and test structures and mechanisms for our interceptors. You’ll take parts and assemblies from CAD through fabrication and test, and see them fly. You’ll report to the Mechanical Engineering Lead and work closely with our senior engineers, who will review your work and help you grow.
You’ll also work alongside the propulsion, aerodynamics, controls, and electrical engineers. At our size, you’ll get more ownership and hands-on time with flight hardware than you would almost anywhere else.
What you need
- B.S. in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field.
- 2+ years of experience designing and building hardware. Student rocketry, Formula SAE, or similar project teams count.
- Solid CAD skills, including assemblies and drawings.
- Working knowledge of structural analysis, including hand calculations and FEA.
- Comfortable working hands-on in a shop and test environment.
