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 Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system that will fundamentally change the design, economics, manufacturing and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.

We’re intentional, we’re unapologetically curious and we’re 100% committed to innovate space-based communications and deliver actionable intelligence that will expand global economies, protect space and our planet and enhance our overall quality of life.

 
We are seeking a skilled and detail-oriented Chemical Bath Deposition (CBD) Process Engineer to develop, operate, and optimize wet-chemical thin-film deposition processes within a roll-to-roll (R2R) manufacturing environment. 
This hands-on role requires strong expertise in chemistry, solution preparation, process control, wet deposition kinetics, and high-volume manufacturing techniques. The ideal candidate has experience with thin-film coating processes, chemical reaction control, and continuous-flow or R2R wet-processing equipment. 

What you'll be doing:

  • Develop, optimize, and maintain chemical bath deposition processes for thin-film layer formation on flexible substrates. 
  • Operate and own R2R chemical coating equipment, including solution delivery, heating, mixing, agitation, web movement, and drying systems. 
  • Prepare chemical solutions, adjust concentrations, control reaction kinetics, and maintain precise bath chemistry to ensure consistent film growth. 
  • Monitor real-time process variables (temperature, pH, flow, concentration, deposition rate, web tension, alignment) and define control limits. 
  • Perform routine inspections, calibrations, and preventive maintenance on CBD and R2R equipment. 
  • Troubleshoot process deviations, identify root causes, and implement corrective actions. 
  • Work closely with engineering, quality, and production teams to scale processes from lab/pilot to high-volume manufacturing. 
  • Maintain accurate records of chemical usage, batch logs, deposition parameters, and production results according to SOPs. 
  • Ensure full compliance with chemical handling, safety, and environmental protocols. 
  • What you will bring to this role:

  • Advanced degree in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, Engineering Technology, or related technical field. 
  • Minimum 5 years of hands-on experience in chemical deposition processes for thin films (CBD, wet coating, electrochemical, plating, sol-gel, or similar). 
  • Strong understanding of wet-chemical reaction control, solution stability, stoichiometry, and bath kinetics. 
  • Experience operating or developing roll-to-roll (R2R) or web-based chemical processing equipment. 
  • Familiarity with process control, analytical measurements (pH, concentration, thickness), and statistical process methods. 
  • Ability to work safely with chemicals, pressurized systems, heated baths, and cleanroom protocols. 
  • Extra points for the following:

  • Experience scaling chemical processes from lab to pilot to production. 
  • Knowledge of industrial chemical delivery systems, metering pumps, filtration, or recirculation systems. 
  • Background in continuous wet-coating or immersion-based deposition systems. 
  • Experience in high-volume thin-film or flexible-electronics manufacturing environments. 

  • This is a full time, exempt position, based out of our Arlington, TX office. 
     
    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.

    Why E-Space is right for you:

    As a member of our team, you will play a crucial role in driving our success.  Our team members have a strong sense of dedication and responsibility; this includes a strong commitment to our mission to create an entirely new suite of global capabilities to improve lives, business efficiencies and build a smarter planet. This means that there will be times when extra hours, including nights and weekends, may be needed to meet critical deadlines and mission goals.  In return, we offer a dynamic work environment with opportunities for professional growth and development and the chance to make a meaningful impact in a high-growth industry.  

    We want you to make the most of your journey at E-Space. That’s why we support and invest in the physical, emotional and financial well-being of our team members and their families. Some of what you can expect when working at E-Space:

    • An opportunity to really make a difference
