• Support the design and development of 2-axis gimbal systems including structure design, motor and reducer selection, and feedback architecture to achieve precise pointing control 
• Select materials appropriate for stratospheric conditions balancing strength, thermal performance, weight, and cost constraints
• Design and analyze thermal management solutions to maintain components within operating temperature ranges across stratospheric conditions. Develop and verify thermal models against test and flight data to build confidence in system performance
• Contribute to payload architecture decisions, including evaluating new sensor technologies, identifying candidate hardware for integration, and proposing new payload concepts or capability expansions 
• Plan and execute benchtop testing of subsystems and prototypes to validate functionality prior to flight testing 
• Conduct environmental testing including thermal cycling, vacuum exposure, and shock qualification. Support field integration and test campaigns, incorporating operational feedback into design iterations 
• Develop and execute verification and validation plans, prepare prototypes for flight, and maintain flight safety documentation 
• Analyze flight performance data to identify issues and drive design iteration. Lead post-flight hardware teardowns and failure investigations to determine root cause and inform corrective actions
• Maintain thorough engineering documentation including design/analysis rationale, trade studies, assembly procedures, test reports, and lessons learned to support knowledge retention and production readiness 
• Generate high-quality engineering drawings with appropriate use of GD&T when necessary

Qualifications: 

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related discipline; advanced degree is a plus but not required 
• 2-5 years of experience in mechanical design and integration of electromechanical systems operating in real-world environments 
• Proficiency in CAD software (e.g., OnShape, SolidWorks, or Fusion 360) for designing complex mechanical systems 
• Strong knowledge of materials and manufacturing processes, including CNC machining, sheet metal fabrication, 3D printing, and injection molding 
• Intuitive understanding of tolerance analysis, design for manufacturing (DFM), and design for assembly (DFA), with the ability to design parts and assemblies that are practical to build, inspect, and maintain 
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with experience using hand calculations and simulation tools to inform design decisions and the ability to systematically troubleshoot hardware issues when things don't go as planned 

Nice-to-Haves/Preferred Skills: 

• Knowledge in optics, optomechanics, or imaging systems 
• Experience working in aerospace or satellite development 
• Experience developing mechanisms, motion control applications, or gimbal systems

What you bring

• 8+ years delivering power/energy projects (consulting, owner’s engineer, or EPCM) spanning utility-scale wind/solar/BESS, HV substations, and/or transmission.
• Bachelor’s in Electrical, Civil, or Structural Engineering (or related). PE license preferred (multi-state a plus); PMP a plus.
• Working knowledge of interconnection/studies and design coordination (e.g., ETAP/SKM/PSSE/PSCAD familiarity; PLS-CADD/POLE; Civil 3D/AutoCAD; Bluebeam).

Nice to have

• Experience with owner’s-rep/OR, OE roles and utility interfaces (ISO/RTO processes).
• Familiarity with constructability reviews, commissioning plans, and startup/energization.
• Knowledge of procurement workflows and major equipment (modules, trackers, inverters, transformers, breakers, relays).

Pay Range - $125,000 - $175,000 base + bonus.
