EVONA
Lead Spacecraft Designer @ EVONA
A growing space technology company is looking for an experienced Lead Spacecraft Designer to take ownership of the mechanical design for a new high energy orbital vehicle. This is a hands‑on role for a mechanical engineer who enjoys detailed CAD work, buildable designs, and close collaboration across propulsion, avionics, and systems.
You will translate system architecture into flight‑ready hardware by leading the design of tanks, structures, mechanisms, and spacecraft interfaces. Responsibilities include CAD modelling, packaging, mass‑properties tracking, mechanical ICDs, structural and thermal analysis, supplier engagement, and support through major design reviews.
Skills Needed:
Expert SolidWorks capability, including assemblies, drawings, and configurations
Strong GD&T knowledge and tolerance stack‑up understanding
Experience designing spacecraft or flight hardware
Background with lightweight structures and propulsion interfaces
Understanding of launch environments including vibration, loads, and thermal conditions
Familiarity with structural and thermal analysis tools
Ability to collaborate effectively across disciplines
Excellent documentation habits and attention to detail
Experience with composite structures, small satellites, or OTV systems is an advantage.
This role is onsite at one of the company’s US locations and offers a supportive, fast‑paced environment with strong benefits.
