    Manufacturing Engineer, Fluid Systems

    LA County – Relocation Assistance Provided

    The Company

    Our client's mission is to expand humanity's frontier into the solar system and beyond. The next step on this journey is to enable manufacturing and habitation in Low Earth Orbit (LEO). Our client's plan to make this a reality is to build artificial gravity space stations.

    The Job

    Our client is looking for a Manufacturing Engineer, Fluid Systems reporting to the Manager of Tube Fabrication, to support the development of the systems that will be required for the design and build of artificial-gravity human-rated space stations.

    Functions

    • Conceptualize, develop, and manufacture innovative, cutting-edge tube bending and welding cells capable of meeting the demanding needs for the Haven-1 program. Drive first build and test effort through design integration, assembly sequencing, mBOM development, build and test work order creation, and specification authoring
    • Create and maintain detailed manufacturing plans, assembly procedures, and work instructions to ensure consistent and accurate production of all tubing systems
    • Identify and resolve manufacturing challenges by conducting root cause analysis and implementing corrective actions
    • Leverage critical thinking and problem-solving skills to constantly challenge the norms and pushing the boundaries to achieve efficient production for human space flight within timelines
    • Collaborate closely with design and integration engineers as well as internal production teams and external vendors to execute expediently and efficiently
    • Create efficient and capable tooling solutions to streamlining production and aid in increased system output while reducing operational burden
    • Collaborate with quality assurance teams to establish and maintain rigorous quality control processes for manufacturing
    • Establish and enforce standard practices, troubleshooting guides, and standardized repair procedures, with a key responsibility of reviewing and approving planning documents
    • Facilitate day-to-day production of bent tubes, OTW, and manual welded tubing, both on ensuring optimal efficiency and adherence to quality standards
    • Challenge existing production and design requirements for tubing assemblies, utilizing data-driven insights to identify and eliminate wasteful practices, further optimizing the manufacturing process
    • Streamline and optimize existing production systems, proactively identifying opportunities to enhance manufacturing efficiency, reduce waste, and improve overall product quality

    Qualifications

    • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field
    • 5+ years of manufacturing engineering experience (internships and extracurricular experience is applicable), preferably in the aerospace industry

    Preferred Skills

    • Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams
    • Strong attention to detail and a commitment to producing high-quality work
    • Comfortable working in a rapidly changing, high-stress environment balancing several projects at any given time
    • Strong understanding of fluid systems
    • Experience tube bending, orbital tube welding (OTW), TIG welding, precision cleaning, tooling design, and/or pressure testing
    • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to perform root cause analysis
    • Hands-on experience with testing and troubleshooting fluids components and systems is desirable

    Additional Requirements

    • Willingness to work evenings and/or weekends to support critical mission milestones

    Pay Range:

    • Manufacturing Engineer I: $85,000 - $105,000
    • Manufacturing Engineer II: $100,000 - $130,000
    • Manufacturing Engineer III: $120,000 - $160,000
