Details :
This role exists to design build and operate next-generation propulsion test infrastructure supporting rocket engine and spacecraft propulsion programs.
You will architect and commission more than 10 new hot-fire test stands and establish the instrumentation and controls standards used across all propulsion testing. This is a hands-on builder role. You will not inherit a finished lab. You will create it.
Key Responsibilities
- Design build and commission hot-fire propulsion test stands from scratch
- Architect LabVIEW PLC and SCADA control systems
- Specify integrate and maintain DAQ hardware and instrumentation systems
- Develop P&IDs valve sequencing logic and safety interlock systems
- Operate high-pressure and cryogenic propulsion systems
- Develop and execute test procedures and readiness reviews
- Lead hazard analysis and safety reviews (HAZOP TRR)
- Troubleshoot live test failures and system anomalies
- Scale and standardize test infrastructure across multiple sites
- Establish technical standards for future test operations
