  • Manage multiple tasks with shifting priorities, supporting analysis and manufacturing across the product development lifecycle through iterative design.


Qualifications

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Aerospace, Mechanical, or a related engineering field. Proven experience in routing projects for harnesses and fluid networks, ideally for flight or space-grade applications. Proficient in CAD (SOLIDWORKS, CATIA, NX) and in producing technical and production drawings following relevant standards.


Required Skills

  • 6+ years in engineering design, ideally of high-performance or flight-critical components.
  • Experience across the entire lifecycle of mechanical engineering projects.
  • Strong knowledge of aerospace materials, properties, and relevant design tools.
  • Solid understanding and application of GD&T, along with familiarity with composite materials and associated manufacturing processes.


Preferred Skills

  • Understanding of kinematics, material selection, metallurgy, and coatings for space applications.
  • Familiarity with spacecraft structural loads, mechanical testing, and cryogenic fluids.
  • Experience with industry standards and specifications (e.g., MIL-HDBK, ECSS-E-HB-32, NASA-STD).
