  • Modeling and simulation of system performance

  • Interface with internal and external stakeholders to design and scale up processes based on customer and internal requirements
  • Ownership of outcomes and direct contribution to the growth of the company

Requirements

Successful applicants should have most of the following: 

  • 3+ years of experience directly working with hardware 
  • Experience with scale-up, manufacturing, and assembly/integration of commercial aerospace or energy projects
  • Strong engineering background and first-principles approach to problem solving
