Together, We Can Make A Significant Impact

As a highly experienced

Senior SatelliteMechanical Engineer,

you will lead the design, development, andqualification of mechanical systems for spacecraft missions. This role focuseson structural integrity, mechanical design, electronics packaging, and systemreliability in the harsh space environment.

Be Part of Our Success

Mechanical Design & Development

Lead the design of satellite mechanical systemsincluding primary/secondary structures, mechanisms, and electronicsenclosures/modules (e.g., avionics boxes, PCB assemblies)

Perform detailed design using CAD tools (e.g., NX,CATIA, SolidWorks)

Ensure compliance with launch loads, mechanicalconstraints, and space environment requirements

Optimize designs for mass, stiffness,manufacturability, and integration efficiency

Structural Analysis

Conduct structural analysis (static, dynamic,vibration, shock) using FEA tools (e.g., ANSYS, NASTRAN)

Perform structural verification of both spacecraftstructures and electronics modules (PCB support, fasteners, enclosures)

Validate designs against mission requirements andsafety margins

Integration & Testing

Support satellite assembly, integration, and test(AIT) activities

Support mechanical integration of electronicsunits, harness routing, and structural interfaces

Define and support environmental testing(vibration, acoustic, shock)

Support in the investigation of any anomaliesduring integration and testing phases

Materials & Processes

Select appropriate materials and surface treatmentsfor space applications

Define materials and finishes suitable forelectronics enclosures and mounting structures

Ensure compliance with space standards (e.g.,outgassing, radiation tolerance, fatigue life)

Work closely with manufacturing teams onproducibility and qualification

Technical Leadership

Provide technical guidance to junior engineers

Lead design reviews (PDR, CDR, TRR, etc.)

Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams includingelectrical/avionics teams to ensure proper mechanical-electrical integration

Drive best practices in electronics packaging,structural robustness, and interface control

Documentation & Compliance

Generate and maintain design documentation,analysis reports, and test procedures

Develop related interface control documents (ICDs)

Ensure compliance with industry standards (e.g.,ECSS, NASA, MIL-STD)

Support mission reviews and customer deliverables

Qualities We Value

Knowledge in Mechanical Engineering, AerospaceEngineering, or related field

Preferably 8 to 15 years of relevant experience insatellite or space system engineering is a plus

Proven experience in spacecraft mechanical design,AIT, and electronics module/box-level design is highly desirable

Proficiency in:

CAD tools (NX, CATIA, SolidWorks)

FEA tools (ANSYS, NASTRAN)

Electronics packaging and PCB mechanical supportdesign

Harness routing, connector interfaces, and avionics box integration
