About the role
As a Level III Space Optical Payload Test Engineer, you will work within a structured test team to plan, execute, and document environmental qualification and optical performance tests on lasercom flight terminals. You will work independently within your assigned scope under senior engineer oversight, collaborating with optical designers, systems engineers, and the production team. This is a hands-on hardware role - you will spend significant time in the lab, cleanroom, and at environmental test facilities, not primarily at a desk. Your acceptance data directly determines what flies.
