About the role

Work hands-on in a fast-paced, often novel, high-mix environment while collaborating cross-functionally and driving projects to completion
Vendor management experience including selection, defect disposition, and quality management

Our Terran R vehicle will deliver customer payloads to orbit, meeting the growing demand for launch capacity.
Here, you're not just executing tasks; you're solving problems that haven't been solved before, helping develop a rocket, a factory, and a business from the ground up.
Whether you're in propulsion, manufacturing, software, avionics, or a corporate function, you'll collaborate across teams, shape decisions, and see your work come to life in record time.
Own and develop manufacturing and test processes for 3D printed and machined Aeon-R engine components and subassemblies
Drive continuous improvements in manufacturability, assembly, and delivery of components, ensuring hardware meets all aspects of the intended design
Collaborate with manufacturing partners and technicians by writing work instructions, conducting root cause analysis, resolving issues, and tracking and reducing lead time
Partner with supply chain to develop and manage external supplier relationships, ensuring on-time hardware delivery

This role requires a high degree of autonomy and initiative to provide design feedback, pioneer advanced manufacturing methods, and deliver flight hardware for integration and testing.
Bachelor's degree in engineering or related technical field and 2+ years of relevant experience in manufacturing engineering or a related role.
Strong foundational knowledge of propulsion systems, mechanics of materials, and thermal-fluid systems to investigate and resolve hardware defects
Proficiency with additive/subtractive manufacturing, precision inspection, GD&T (ASME Y14.5), and FEA using Ansys or similar tools
Experience with tooling design using Siemens NX or other CAD tools, including conceptualization, modeling, analysis, and fabrication
Nice to haves but not required:
Hands-on experience with CNC machining, welding, and high-pressure testing
