Glasgow, United Kingdom Skyrora Ltd Full time

**Job description**

**About us**

Skyrora is the UK’s leading New-Space small satellite launch vehicle engineering company based in Edinburgh. Skyrora’s mission is to provide a versatile and dedicated sovereign launch capability to serve the world-leading satellite manufacturers local to the UK and Europe. Leading the UK’s effort to create a sustainable and environmentally conscious launch vehicle, Skyrora combines world-leading innovative engineering solutions to construct our launch vehicles and develop our liquid propulsion technologies, minimising the impact of operations on the immediate environment in the process.

Small and Micro satellites are being used more and more in everyday life, with the manufacturing rate increasing year by year. They assist us by tracking forest fires, providing communications to remote places and capturing high-definition images of the Earth, to name a few. There is currently a lack of launch opportunities for small satellites, and it is Skyrora’s goal to open access to space to unlock the potential for all.

We design and build our launch vehicles in house and aim to launch from the UK with Skyrora XL, a 3-stage liquid launch vehicle. We have built the UK’s largest test engine facility. This ground-breaking testing infrastructure will aid the testing of engines on our orbital Skyrora XL launch vehicle, allowing Skyrora to both become the first British company to launch from British soil and deliver sovereign UK launch capability at scale in the long term. In our engine development, we performed over 120 liquid engine tests in 2020 alone. Globally, we have recently secured over £3M in ESA funding, to accelerate our development activities.

Teamwork is at the core of Skyrora's values as we face new challenges every day. Every member of Skyrora’s diverse team demonstrates entrepreneurial flexibility to cooperate and establish sustainable solutions for all the challenges thrown at us; from creating the legal landscape enabling space flight in the UK to overcoming societal challenges such as COVID-19.

Why not challenge yourself in trying to get the UK back to space?

**About the Role**

Skyrora is undergoing a period of growth as we seek to increase the size of our team across all departments. With the opening of new manufacturing facilities and the largest liquid test site in the UK, we require an experienced Welding Technician to assist in our vehicle development and production. You will be responsible for welding complex assemblies and fabrication of various small to large scale structures. The role will be primarily based at our Cumbernauld factory with travel required between other Skyrora facilities to meet business needs. You will be working as part of a highly driven and dynamic team that is pushing to achieve orbital flight from UK soil.

The technician will collaborate with the Production Team to work towards continuous improvement of welding operations, decrease turnaround times and streamline work processes. Previous experience and competence working with Aluminium, Stainless Steel and Inconel is essential to this role, in addition to knowledge of a broad range of welding joints and techniques.

The technician will be responsible for planning maintenance and upkeep of welding equipment and tools to the high standards expected from all Skyrora staff. Therefore, you must have strong organisational skills and be very self-driven.
