The posting

Astrolab is The Lunar Operations Company. We design and build the systems and hardware the lunar economy will come to depend on — rovers, power, and data networks for sustained operations on the Moon. We are focused on the problems that must be solved before the next chapter of human exploration can scale. The Moon does not forgive untested assumptions. The people who work here know that, and they wouldn't have it any other way.

Venturi Astrolab, Inc. (Astrolab) is pioneering new ways to explore and operate on distant planetary bodies. We are singularly focused on designing, building, and operating a fleet of multi-purpose commercial planetary rovers to extend and enhance humanity's presence in the solar system. We are seeking motivated, creative, and exceptional people to join our world-class team.

Astrolab is looking for a Sr. Integration Engineer to be a technical leader for how our CLV-1 crewed lunar rover is integrated and proven ready for test, launch, and lunar mission operations. You will define the vehicle-level integration flow and system integration and test (SI&T) approach, lead the most complex integration operations and anomaly investigations, and help establish integration engineering as a discipline at Astrolab. This role bridges Manufacturing Engineering and our Test team, owning the vehicle from build through functional checkout and handoff to test.

What you'll do:

  • Own large portions of the vehicle-level integration flow for our rover builds, including build sequence, integration levels, and verification at each step through final closeout and ship
  • Define the SI&T approach with Systems Engineering and the Test team: what is verified during integration versus environmental and qualification testing, and how functional checkouts repeat between campaigns
  • Lead complex integration operations and integrated vehicle tests, including first vehicle power-on, end-to-end functional tests, mobility checkouts, and hardware-in-the-loop testing
  • Lead investigations into anomalous vehicle behavior across mechanical, electrical, and software boundaries; represent integration at quality review boards
  • Lead integration and manufacturing readiness reviews for major program milestones
  • Develop and institutionalize integration standards, including procedure templates, safe-to-mate practices, hazardous operations (high-voltage batteries, critical lifts), and workmanship
  • Define requirements for integration GSE/EGSE, vehicle handling equipment, and integration facility layout
  • Outline detailed integration plans and drive cross functional execution
  • Mentor earlier career engineers and technicians, and serve as technical lead for cross-disciplinary integration efforts

What you'll bring:

Basic Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in a science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM) field
  • 5+ years of integration, test, or manufacturing engineering experience on complex flight hardware such as spacecraft, launch vehicles, planetary or lunar surface systems, crewed vehicles, or aircraft
  • Hands-on experience leading vehicle- or system-level integration of flight hardware through functional test and handoff into environmental testing

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience integrating vehicle hardware on crewed or human-rated vehicles, or on NASA flight programs
  • Demonstrated ownership of anomaly investigations on integrated electromechanical systems, driven to root cause under schedule pressure
  • Strong understanding of vehicle electrical architecture (power distribution, harnessing, data buses, grounding and bonding)
  • High-voltage and lithium-ion battery integration and safety on crewed vehicles, or EV powertrain integration
  • Experience defining test philosophies; working understanding of GSFC-STD-7000 (GEVS) and SMC-S-016
  • Deep understanding of industry and NASA workmanship and fastener standards (NASA-STD-8739 series, NASA-STD-5020, J-STD-001, IPC/WHMA-A-620)
  • Proficiency with CAD modeling software (e.g., NX), and a working knowledge of GD&T
  • Experience creating and managing integration work instructions via MES/MRP software (e.g. Manufacturo)
  • Proficiency in developing, collating, and documenting best practices and organizational level process improvement in Jira / Confluence
  • Launch campaign experience
  • Experience planning critical lifts and hazardous operations; familiarity with NASA-STD-8719.9
  • Experience leading and mentoring engineers and technicians

Benefits and Perks

  • Join a team of best-in-class engineers building the foundation of planetary surface exploration
  • Equity ownership in the company
  • Comprehensive health benefits, including medical, dental, vision, and mental health support
  • 401(k) plan with company match
  • Flexible PTO and parental leave
  • Weekly lunch stipend, plus complimentary snacks and beverages on-site
  • Once a month social hour on-site with food and drinks

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
