To build our space systems, we need rockstars of all experience levels who can directly work the full product lifecycle of thermal management and related spacecraft systems. Responsibilities:

· Challenge the status quo.

· Deliver thermal design and analytical solutions optimized for packaging, build, and operations in support of the whole vehicle and its subsystems such as propulsion, avionics, ECLSS, and structures.

· Own thermal systems from requirements definition to orbital data review.

· Perform hand calcs, scoping studies, and both large and small scale thermal simulations in industry-standard toolkits such as Thermal Desktop or Siemens Simcenter.

· Work with suppliers and our manufacturing team to make your designs a reality.

· Be a reliable expert of your system, from concept to mission control console.

You’re a successful candidate if you are a giver, not a taker. You have an ability to make things happen. You are exceptional at several things, yet willing to take on efforts in areas of weakness.

· Demonstrated past ownership of complex projects.

· Ability to understand from first principles, not rely on the answer from a mystery tool.

· Experience designing and developing thermal systems which operate in harsh environments.

· Sound knowledge of thermodynamics, heat transfer principles, and fluid mechanics.

· 2+ years of experience in mechanical or aerospace engineering. Electrical engineering with electronics packaging background may also be acceptable.

· Familiarity with CAD and Analysis packages such as NX, Simcenter, Thermal Desktop or similar.

· Strong understanding of model correlation and validation in test to prepare for the harsh real world of space environments.

· Bachelor’s degree in an applicable field.

· A proven history of successful hardware in launch vehicles or space systems.

· Experience working with thermal test systems, vacuum chambers, and data acquisition.

· Deep working knowledge of space thermal systems and techniques, including radiators, heaters, sensors, insulation blankets.

· Having a design portfolio.
