Position Overview

We are currently building satellites that can operate at an altitude of just 200 km - one-third that of conventional satellites .
We are seeking a Structural Engineer to support the design, analysis, testing, and qualification of structures for our VLEO satellite missions. You will work across the full development lifecycle of flight hardware, from early structural modelling and design reviews through environmental testing and validation, helping ensure the reliability and survivability of spacecraft operating in one of the harshest orbital environments.
You will work closely with mechanical, thermal, propulsion, systems, and AIT teams to develop structurally robust hardware capable of surviving launch and sustained operations in Ultra-Low Earth Orbit.
Perform structural analysis of flight hardware including spacecraft structures, propulsion subsystems, and mechanical assemblies. Develop and validate finite element models (FEM) for spacecraft and high-performance aerospace...
