Additional Information

Here at The Exploration Company, we are developing, producing, and operating Nyx, a modular and reusable space orbital vehicle that can eventually be refuelled in orbit and that can carry cargo - and potentially humans in the longer run. We want you as a talented MAIT Mechanisms and MGSE CAD Engineer to help us in our mission by making sure that NYX mechanisms are successfully assembled and tested. You will be successful in this role if you are able to help us: Prepare, execute and manage the mechanical integration and tests of our space subsystems. Support test activities in TEC facilities or at partners facilities for specific tests. Design the required MGSEs for our spacecraft mechanisms (mechanical + electro-mechanical). Make calculation/stress analysis demonstrating good safety margins for the MGSEs. Deliver the detailed design of the MGSEs (3D models and 2D drawings for manufacturing of all the parts).
