The posting

Quantum Space is redefining mobility and maneuverability in space. Our high-mobility spacecraft platforms support national security, civil, and commercial missions with unmatched flexibility and propulsion capability. We build fast and iterate quickly.

Who We’re Looking For

We are seeking a highly skilled Manufacturing Engineer II to develop, implement, and continuously improve the manufacturing processes used to build, integrate, and test our spacecraft.

This role is ideal for an experienced manufacturing engineer who thrives in a fast-paced, hands-on environment and enjoys solving complex production challenges at the intersection of design, manufacturing, quality, and spacecraft integration. You will play a critical role in translating engineering designs into repeatable, efficient, and reliable manufacturing processes while supporting hardware from initial build through final integration and test.

Where You’ll Make an Impact

  • Translate engineering drawings, CAD models, specifications, and schematics into detailed Bills of Materials (BOMs), manufacturing routings, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), and technician work instructions
  • Provide hands-on lineside and cleanroom manufacturing support for spacecraft structures, avionics, harness routing, thermal systems, payloads, and other integrated hardware
  • Develop, procure, validate, and commission custom manufacturing tooling, precision alignment fixtures, assembly aids, and hardware handling equipment
  • Lead Root Cause/Corrective Action (RCCA) investigations and partner with quality and engineering teams to disposition discrepant hardware and manage Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs)
  • Partner with design engineering early in the New Product Introduction (NPI) process to drive Design for Manufacturability and Assembly (DFMA), influencing component geometry, tolerances, material selection, and assembly sequences
  • Identify and resolve manufacturing constraints, production bottlenecks, and hardware integration challenges
  • Drive yield improvements, cycle-time reductions, scrap elimination, and factory-floor optimization using Lean manufacturing and continuous improvement principles
  • Support the transition of new hardware and processes from engineering development into repeatable production
  • Develop manufacturing processes that meet quality, safety, configuration-control, and AS9100 requirements
  • Use production data and lessons learned from hardware builds to improve manufacturing processes and provide actionable feedback to engineering teams

What It Takes

  • Bachelor’s degree in Aerospace, Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related STEM discipline
  • 5+ years of direct manufacturing engineering experience supporting aerospace, spacecraft, satellite systems, or complex electromechanical hardware production
  • Demonstrated experience developing manufacturing processes, work instructions, routings, BOMs, and production documentation
  • Hands-on experience supporting hardware assembly, integration, and test in a production or development environment
  • Proficiency with CAD software such as NX, CATIA V5/V6, Creo, SolidWorks, or similar engineering design tools
  • Experience working with Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and/or manufacturing configuration-management systems
  • Working knowledge of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T), engineering drawings, and tolerance stack-up analysis
  • Experience designing or developing manufacturing tooling, fixtures, assembly aids, and/or precision alignment equipment
  • Familiarity with cleanroom protocols, electrostatic discharge (ESD) controls, and contamination-control practices
  • Hands-on experience with electronic box builds, harness assembly, spacecraft structures, thermal systems, propulsion systems, or similar complex hardware integration
  • Experience supporting Root Cause/Corrective Action investigations and resolving manufacturing non-conformances
  • Understanding of AS9100 or comparable aerospace quality-management systems
  • Strong data-driven problem-solving skills with the ability to identify root causes and implement sustainable corrective actions
  • Strong project-management and organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced hardware-development environment
  • Strong cross-functional communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively with technicians, engineers, quality, supply chain, and program teams
  • Ability and willingness to work hands-on with flight hardware on the production floor and in cleanroom environments

Nice-to-Have Experience

  • Master’s degree in Aerospace, Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related technical discipline
  • Experience manufacturing, assembling, integrating, or testing spacecraft or satellite systems
  • Experience supporting spacecraft Assembly, Integration, and Test (AI&T/AIT) activities
  • Experience with spacecraft structures, avionics, electrical harnesses, thermal systems, propulsion systems, or payload integration
  • Experience supporting New Product Introduction (NPI) and transitioning hardware from prototype or development builds into production
  • Demonstrated application of Design for Manufacturability and Assembly (DFMA) principles
  • Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, or continuous-improvement training or certification
  • Experience with process capability, statistical process control, yield analysis, or other manufacturing data-analysis methods
  • Experience developing factory layouts, production-flow strategies, or manufacturing capacity plans
  • Familiarity with aerospace configuration management, traceability, and flight-hardware documentation requirements

What You’ll Get

  • Ownership – Own critical manufacturing processes from initial design release through spacecraft assembly, integration, test, and flight-hardware delivery.
  • Innovation – Develop manufacturing methods, tooling, fixtures, and production strategies that enable our teams to build complex spacecraft faster and more reliably.
  • Impact – Work directly with flight hardware and solve the manufacturing challenges that determine spacecraft quality, reliability, schedule, and mission success.
  • Growth – Expand your expertise across spacecraft manufacturing, AI&T, quality, tooling, and production operations while influencing how Quantum Space scales its spacecraft manufacturing capabilities.
  • Compensation – Competitive salary, equity, and comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision, generous leave, HSA, 401(k) matching, and equity sharing.

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.
