• Develop and execute vehicle and subsystem integration and test strategies.
• Plan major test campaigns, including facilities, personnel, schedules, equipment, risks, and resources.
• Partner with Systems Engineering teams to support verification and validation activities.
• Develop, review, and execute test plans, procedures, scripts, and reports.
• Select and coordinate test facilities and external partners.
• Support spacecraft integration activities and troubleshoot hardware and software issues during testing.
• Establish and improve company-wide testing, verification, and validation processes.
• Present technical progress, risks, and test results to leadership, customers, and partners.
• Lead multidisciplinary engineering teams through critical milestones and test events.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Aerospace, Mechanical, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline.
• 5+ years of experience supporting spacecraft, aerospace, robotics, or complex hardware systems.
• Strong background in Assembly, Integration & Test (AI&T) activities.
• Experience planning and executing hardware and software test campaigns.
• Familiarity with spacecraft command and control systems, simulators, test benches, and ground support equipment.
• Experience troubleshooting integrated systems and driving issues to resolution.
• Strong communication, leadership, and organizational skills.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-moving environment with ambitious schedules.

Nice to Have

• Previous experience serving as AI&T Lead on a spaceflight program.
• Experience developing test procedures, scripts, and verification documentation.
• Familiarity with configuration management and product lifecycle tools.
• Experience with autonomous systems, robotics, lunar mobility platforms, or human spaceflight programs.

Why Join?

• Work on cutting-edge space systems that will help shape the future of exploration.
• Own critical hardware through integration, test, and mission readiness.
• Join a highly collaborative engineering team where your work has direct impact.
• Be part of a company moving quickly, solving difficult technical challenges, and delivering real flight hardware.
