Overview
As a Mechanisms Design Engineer, you define spacecraft mechanisms for manned and unmanned vehicles using metallic and composite materials. You will analyze requirements at subsystem level to drive design choices, select components, and ensure mass efficiency under mission loads. You’ll perform multibody analyses and support testing and verification plans, collaborating with cross-functional teams.
This role offers an opportunity to shape mechanisms for space missions and contribute to reliable, high-performing systems. You will work in a dynamically skilled team, coaching junior engineers and translating complex requirements into robust designs.
