• 5+ years of experience in a full cycle design engineering role and a Bachelor’s degree in related discipline
• Working knowledge of structural analysis and test (from hand calculations to advanced analysis)
• Fundamental knowledge of structures strength, stability and fatigue failure mechanisms
• Fundamental knowledge of additive and traditional manufacturing processes

Desirable

• The Factory Test team is responsible for providing a set of common test capabilities to all departments in the factory
• These include the design and build of test equipment, administering our data collection system, reviewing designs and standards, and conducting hazardous test operations
• Some examples of the tests we support include static load testing, dynamic mechanism testing, cryogenic flow testing, and pressurized testing
• The Test Systems Engineer (Factory Test) will focus on the design of fluids & pressure test systems across the test facility and factory
• To support our mission of changing the way rockets are built and flown, you will be responsible for bringing structural test stands from design concept to full operational readiness
• The scope of work encompasses a full design cycle, including conceptualization, design, analysis, fabrication, and operation
• These test stands range from benchtop fixtures for actuator testing to multi-story steel towers for stage testing
• Design and analysis of steel weldments capable of applying test loads to a variety of hardware
• Creating drawings and work instructions for the assembly of a brand new 3d printed part into a test stand
• Writing and executing test day procedures
• Supporting design and data reviews of flight structures
• Your mission will be to complete these projects on time and budget. In order to achieve this, you will be working closely with our Additive, Design, Test, and Loads & Dynamics teams
