About this Mechanical Engineer, Structures role at Espace

Espace · Onsite · Saratoga, CA
Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you’ve come to the right place!
 
E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of space-powered Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are fundamentally changing the design, economics, manufacturing, coverage limitations and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.
 
By building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system—with a unique antenna design, highly sustainable spacecraft system and low-cost, small portable end-user devices—we can extend global satellite coverage, capacity and connectivity beyond legacy space services to provide a new kind of IoT platform that lets users sense, track, connect and act on information gathered, anywhere.
 
We’re intentional, we’re unapologetically curious and we’re 100% committed to saving space, protecting our planet and turning connectivity into actionable intelligence.

 
As the Mechanical Engineer, Structures you will play a critical role in driving our mission to make data universally available, secure and actionable anywhere on the planet. The ideal candidate has prior experience working on a spacecraft engineering team with a passion for designing and manufacturing satellite structures. 
 
This position will report to the VP, Satellite Platform and will work closely with the broader engineering team. 
This position requires at least 3 solid years (non-academic) Satellite experience
 
This role is based in our Saratoga, CA office.

What you'll be doing:

  • Work closely with the satellite sub-system teams to design satellite structures and mechanisms 
  • Be a CAD modeling expert (SolidWorks) managing your CAD assemblies and drawings 
  • Develop build documents and drawings for your hardware 
  • Define, build and test your designs from 3D printed engineering units to flight hardware 
  • Support the fabrication assembly and testing of our flight build
  • What you will bring to this role:

  • At least 5 years of hands-on experience using your CAD skills to develop and build models and drawings 
  • Experience successfully implementing your design solutions in a complex space 
  • Experience with mechanical design to survive extreme environments and challenging mass constraints 
  • Additional Requirements

    This is a fast-paced, high-impact environment - flexibility to occasionally work extended hours or weekends during critical periods is expected.

    We are redefining how satellites are designed, manufactured and used—so we’re looking for candidates with passion, deep knowledge and direct experience on LEO satellite component development, design and in-orbit activities. If that’s your experience – then we’ll be immediately wow-ed.
     
    E-Space is not currently able to provide employment sponsorship for candidates who do not hold work authorization for the location of this role.
