Job Description
On the Miranda propulsion engineering team, we are responsible for designing, developing, and testing the Miranda first stage engine. We are directly responsible for developing an engine that meets vehicle performance and quality requirements on a tight schedule. In this role, you will work across the full lifecycle of hardware, including requirements definition, design, analysis, development, test, and qualification of the engine system. The core engine team requires deep technical knowledge, extreme ownership, and clear communication with our cross-functional teams. The successful candidate will have a strong interest in flight hardware ownership, will be extremely adaptable to new challenges, and has a strong desire to make impactful contributions to the next launch vehicle. This role is primarily responsible for designing and releasing the integrated engine system including complete fluids systems and secondary structures interfacing with engine and vehicle hardware.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Responsible for producing and releasing Miranda fluids system designs interfacing with integrated combustion devices, turbomachinery, valves, fluid systems, TVC, and avionics components.
Own and execute development, qualification, and acceptance testing of engine systems and sub-systems.
Responsible for close coordination with other engineers, production team members, and Quality department to produce and release numerous engine sub-assembly and component drawings that maximize performance and reduce manufacturing complexity.
Maintain multiple, controlled revisions of the engine CAD as component designs are traded in analysis and iterated in development testing.
Provide hands-on support for development engine builds to iterate and improve engine design and layout.
Develop and maintain engine interfaces. Participate in test stand and vehicle installation procedures and improve them as needed.
Communicate risks and trade solutions to minimize risk of failure in development, manufacturing, test and flight.
