    Design the kinematics, actuation, materials, and integration plan for high load tightly packaged subsystem
    Design and Deliver Separation Mechanisms.

    Responsible for delivering low-cost high reliability separation mechanism for staging and launch hold downs.

    Drive testing for life and failure of all moving and frangible systems in flight like environments to quantify margin against all failure modes
    Full Cycle Ownership.

    Lead design reviews and own the hardware delivery timeline and success from preliminary design through assembly, deployment, and re-use. Use CAD, finite element analysis, and hand calcs to ensure hardware exceeds customer requirements, whether internal or external.

    Bachelor's or advanced degree in aerospace engineering, mechanical engineering, physics, or related discipline.
    Significant experience designing vehicle mechanisms, drives, and sensors.
    Prior experience with designs going through thorough flight test campaigns.
    Effective communication skills are crucial for collaborating with cross-functional teams, presenting design concepts, and documenting work.

    Preferred Skills and Experience

    Experienced Project Executioner.


    Demonstrated ability to know when you have enough information to go execute on a design and when to get more information to filter out additional noise.

    Experience designing and executing integrated tests, overload tests, understanding failure modes, and managing schedule to have hardware ready with time to correct integration issues.

    Material and Tribology.

    Proven ability to develop designs with sufficient tolerances, finish, lubrication, and wear-pairs to reduce cost and lead time.

    A successful candidate will demonstrate how they've thought through failure modes, fail safe designs, and safe human interaction/inspection points on previous safety critical hardware.

    Vendor interface.

    Experience managing customers, suppliers, and vendors (motors, drives, sensors, pyros) for high value systems. Willingness to get on site with vendors to solve issues and expedite delivery of parts.

    Additional Requirements


    Willing and able to work extended hours and/or weekends with minimal notification to meet critical deadlines leading up to major milestones.

    Able to travel up to 10% on an ongoing basis

    All employees receive access to comprehensive medial, vision, and dental insurance, and the company offers three weeks of paid time off per year.

    Leadership Qualities
    Bias to Action and Creative Problem Solving. Desire and experience questioning assumptions in ways that lead to break through ideas that are ultimately implemented. Successfully bring in applicable processes/concepts/materials from other industries to achieve efficiency gains. Ability to personally resolve minor issues in development without requiring significant support.
    High Commitment, High Initiative.

    A successful candidate will have a genuine passion for Castelion's mission and consistently look for ways to contribute to the company's technical goals and prevent hardware blockers.

    Ability to work in a fast paced, autonomously driven, and demanding atmosphere. Strong sense of accountability and integrity.
    Clear Communicator. Proactively communicates blockers. Trusted in previous roles to be voice of company with regulators, suppliers, gate keepers and customers. Capable of tactfully managing relationships with stakeholders to achieve company-desired outcomes without compromising relationships. Emails, IMs and verbal interactions are logical, drive clarity, and detailed enough to eliminate ambiguity.


    ITAR Requirements:
    To conform to U.S. Government export regulations, applicant must be a (i) U.S. citizen or national, (ii) U.S. lawful, permanent resident (aka green card holder), (iii) Refugee under 8 U.S.C. § 1157, or (iv) Asylee under 8 U.S.C. § 1158, or be eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
