  • Support the design, qualification, and implementation of additive manufacturing solutions for structural components.
  • Lead structural failure investigations, perform root cause analyses, and implement corrective actions.
  • Support component qualification, static-fire testing, and flight test activities by analyzing test data and validating designs.
  • Collaborate with propulsion, manufacturing, systems, and test engineering teams to optimize performance, manufacturability, reliability, and weight.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives to enhance structural performance and production efficiency.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Materials Engineering, or a related discipline.

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.
