The posting

Senior Facilities Engineer

Decatur, Alabama (On site)

Who We Are

Aurex is a mission-focused aerospace and defense company building the next frontier of deterrence. From hypersonics and missile defense to hardened networks and orbital systems, we design, test, and deliver the platforms that turn unproven ideas into battlefield-ready capability.

Born in Huntsville and built for speed, Aurex brings together aerospace veterans, combat-tested operators, and forward-leaning technologists to solve problems that matter—fast. We move from whiteboard to warfighter with precision, clarity, and zero tolerance for fluff.

Job Overview

A lunar mission starts with a factory that can perform. Aurex is seeking a Senior Facilities Engineer to lead advanced equipment reliability work supporting ULA’s Decatur manufacturing operations. You will tackle persistent failure modes, guide maintenance strategy and help teams make sound equipment life-cycle decisions. For an engineer who wants to combine technical depth with visible results on the factory floor, this role offers a direct connection between your expertise and the hardware being built.

ULA’s new Centaur upper stage for NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) will be built in Decatur, with about 50% more propellant capacity to support future Artemis missions to the Moon.

The Opportunity

  • Lead reliability improvements for production equipment, focusing on availability, recurring failures and maintenance cost.
  • Guide root cause investigations, FMEA and preventive and predictive maintenance strategies.
  • Use performance data and statistical analysis to prioritize equipment life-cycle and maintenance improvements.
  • Partner with maintenance, operations and engineering; mentor engineers and help standardize effective reliability practices.

Basic Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in engineering or a relevant field and at least 12 years of relevant experience, including substantial equipment reliability engineering; target 12–16 years.
  • Certified Maintenance and Reliability Professional certification, known as CMRP.
  • Demonstrated leadership in RCCA, FMEA, predictive maintenance and statistical analysis of equipment performance.
  • Knowledge of production equipment and systems; strong technical communication and Microsoft Office skills.

Preferred Qualifications

Aerospace manufacturing reliability; vibration analysis and infrared diagnostics; EAM 7I; experience guiding reliability programs and mentoring technical staff.

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.
