The opportunity

Rocket Lab is the end-to-end space company building rockets, spacecraft, and critical subsystems that keep the world connected, protected, expand humanity’s reach to the Moon, Mars, and beyond. We move fast, build real hardware for meaningful missions, and make the impossible routine.

What you'll do

  • Design plumbing systems, components, and their secondary structures.

  • Analyze these systems and components in the harsh and dynamic environments of launch.

  • Model these systems to characterize and predict system behavior at all conditions.

  • Test and qualify these systems and components.

  • Manage requirements, realization, and implementation of systems in the larger launch vehicle context.

  • Integrate your hardware into the vehicle.

What they're looking for

  • Review data from component, system, and vehicle level testing to optimize and improve future designs.
  • Collaborate with components, propulsion, structures, mechanical, operations,: and flight software teams to develop and define vehicle functions.
  • Create tools to enhance the team’s analysis capabilities, streamline workflow and optimize launch operations.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or relevant engineering discipline.
