Support the Assembly, Integration and Test of Satellites and subsystems
Recommend facilities and capital equipment improvements for scaling our manufacturing processes to meet our production demand
Provide DFM/DFA recommendations to design teams
Monitor production metrics, identify areas for improvement, and implement corrective actions

What You Bring:

4+ years of manufacturing development experience
Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field
Experience building satellites or similarly complex optical and electromechanical assemblies in a cleanroom environment
Experience reading technical drawings
SolidWorks skills to develop tooling & fixturing interfacing with spacecraft and to extract views for work instructions
Hands-on experience with hardware assembly, integration, and test
Attention to detail and technical writing skills for documenting assembly and test processes
Ability to climb, and lift/push/pull equipment up to 50 pounds

What Makes You Stand Out:
