The Test Engineer will join a Systems Engineering team critical in space thruster engine development. You will work on a complex, multifaceted rocket engine system comprised of numerous newly developed and integrated components. This role involves wide-ranging technical input including structural, thermal, rocket propulsion, space electronics, software, testing, and systems analysis.
In essence, as a Senior Systems Engineer, you will coordinate and integrate diverse sub-components and sub-assemblies into a complete working space engine design.
My client supplies chemical propulsion rocket engines and thrusters that serve key spacecraft manufacturers for commercial, defense, and scientific applications.
Requirements
* Space systems experience, ideally with large European space projects, system primes, or ESA.
* Technical leadership in large, multidisciplinary electrical harnessing design, routing, schematic, mechanical, and fluidic system engineering projects.
* System analysis knowledge applicable to fluidic systems, surge pressure, and pressure drop. Performance, structural, thermal, reliability, radiation assessment, hazard, or safety analysis.
* Experience in complex product development of thermal design and equipment selection using Failure Modes Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA).
* An intelligent, logical approach to problem solving.
* Degree, master's, or higher qualification in Engineering, Aerospace, Mechanical, or Electrical Engineering.
You will own the overall engine system architecture, analysis, and documentation, including FMECAs, radiation, reliability, mechanical, thermal, fluidic, electromagnetic analyses, as well as design, development, and verification plans, design justification documents, software requirements specifications, engine test plans, etc. You will work closely with the Project Manager to plan and organize resources.
Responsibilities
* Support propulsion engine build, assembly, and test development, including route card build sequences, system assembly, integration, manufacturing, and inspection flow charts.
* Review, interpret, manage, and own the spacecraft requirements, then disseminate them down to relevant engine subsystem or component teams.
* Coordinate top-level design, verification, and compliance matrices.
* Digest key subsystem and component review documentation to ensure work meets required standards and all aspects of the engine system are correctly aligned.
* Lead customer interactions and engine-level reviews, and manage supplier technical queries in conjunction with the appropriate resources.
