As a Mechanical Engineer in the Research & Development department you’ll develop mechanical structures for the next generation of ISISPACE spacecraft. You’ll work closely with experienced engineers and cross-functional teams to turn concepts into robust, manufacturable designs for our next generation of spacecraft.
Your main responsibilities:
-
Designing, developing and testing mechanical structures for small spacecraft
-
Taking ownership of the development process from requirements through design, manufacturing and qualification
-
Applying consistent design and documentation practices in your work; and contributing to the development of these practices together with your colleagues
Prerequisites:
-
Education in Mechanical engineering (e.g BEng, BSc, or MSc); or equivalent educational / practical background
-
4 years of demonstrable experience of designing complex mechanical systems to a high standard
-
Thorough understanding of mechanical design techniques
-
Competency with CAD tools (Creo)
-
Familiarity with Design for Manufacture (DfM) and Design for Test (DfT) considerations
-
Skills and Experience in Productization (PA, PDM, PLM)
-
Excellent and straightforward communication skills, in English (verbal and in writing)
-
An open and creative mindset
Strongly Recommended:
-
