Full-time
Mechanical / Payload Design Engineer (Space Systems)
Your work could be operating on the lunar surface within the next 12-18 months.
We’re supporting a pioneering aerospace team building next-generation payload systems for an upcoming lunar mission. This is a rare opportunity to own end-to-end mechanical design on a mission-critical system-from early concept through flight hardware.
What You’ll Be Doing:
- Leading mechanical design and development of a complex spaceflight payload
- Rapid prototyping, testing, and iterating in a fast-paced build environment
- Performing and interpreting structural and mechanism analysis to drive design decisions
- Managing interfaces with external partners and vehicle providers
- Supporting integration, test, and delivery of flight-ready hardware
What We’re Looking For:
- Strong experience with CAD and FEA tools (design + analysis)
- Proven track record building and delivering hardware from concept to deployment
- Experience with mechanisms, deployables, or complex assemblies
- Hands-on engineers who thrive in high-ownership, fast-moving environments
- Passion for building real hardware that operates in extreme environments
Ideal for engineers who want to step into a role where they own the hardware, move fast, and see their work deployed beyond Earth .
