Overview
Join Alpha Impulsion as hybrid propulsion engineer and play a key role in the development of GARNET, the first autophage launch vehicle.

You will be part of the team responsible for the design and testing of a medium-scale hybrid autophage rocket engine, its test models and future iterations to improve performance and meet flight requirements. You will further contribute to internal R&D; activities for all applications, including in-space propulsion.

Your first project here
Alpha Impulsion is developing a medium-scale research engine and propulsion test bench as part of a major contract in Italy. This activity will support the development of a game-changing rocket engine able to disrupt the way launchers are built, reaching performance up to twice that of current propulsion technologies. You will embark on a new project, with the opportunity to build it from start to qualification and exploitation.

Your key responsibilities
As part of your missions, you will be entrusted with the following responsibilities:
- Collaborate on the design of Alpha Impulsion’s newest engine,



from Phase A to integration and firing.
- Collaborate with the other teams (systems, materials, mechanics, propulsion) in France and Italy to integrate your results and support the progress of the other programs under development by Alpha Impulsion (i.e. in-space applications and launch activities).
- Collaborate closely with leading research organisations such as CIRA (IT), ONERA (FR), and DLR (DE) to study and model advanced physical phenomena such as engine dynamics, combustion instabilities, fuel grain pyrolysis and regression improvement techniques.

What we would appreciate most
Education:
- Engineering degree with experience in hybrid rocket propulsion. A PhD in the field is a great plus.

Experience:
- Experience in development of hybrid rocket engines and their ground systems. Candidates with 3+ years of experience will be favoured, but the position is open to candidates who devel
