At AstroForge, our mission is to make space resources accessible on Earth. We mine asteroids to extract valuable minerals in space at a lower cost and smaller carbon footprint than current terrestrial mining methods. Along the way, we seek to leverage the technologies we build to provide additional value across other domains. We offer a unique opportunity to join an exciting team looking to expand humanity’s capabilities in space. Job Description As a Mechanical Engineer, Spacecraft Design at AstroForge, you will own and drive the mechanical design of spacecraft structures, mechanisms, and assemblies from early concept through flight.

This role is focused on technical leadership in CAD development, configuration control, and mechanical design best practices. You will set the standard for design quality, manage complex CAD assemblies and databases, and partner closely with analysis, manufacturing, and test teams to deliver reliable flight hardware. Responsibilities Lead the development and documentation of spacecraft mechanical designs from concept, preliminary design, and critical design through flight hardware.
