<p>About the Team:</p> <p>The Manufacturing team owns all process development, fabrication strategy, and production equipment for Terran R, our next generation, reusable rocket. This team has a wide variety of responsibilities - from factory floor layout, to developing complex tooling for novel processes, and interfacing with our vehicle engineering team to heavily influence design of the rocket. We leverage our deep expertise to translate engineering requirements into highly optimized production lines, working cross functionally to consistently enhance the vehicle program.</p> <p>About the Role:</p> <ul> <li>Own the large fusion welded assemblies work centers including domes, transfer tubes and future components making them able to meet rate production requirements. </li><li>Partner with a diverse team of engineers and technicians to create a tooling suite and robust process for each fusion weld on the vehicle. </li><li>Create work instructions, specifications, and best practices across multiple high-fidelity processes. Help standardize processes across the manufacturing team. </li><li>Help establish the stations within the inaugural work cell by considering assembly operations, tooling and capital equipment requirements, and rate targets. </li><li>Support the shop floor through live issue resolution and provide upstream feedback as we innovate the next generation of manufacturing technology. </li><li>Provide Design for Manufacturing feedback to structures teams during the development phase and through the first prototype and flight builds. </li></ul> <p>About You:</p> <ul> <li>Bachelor's degree in aeronautical, mechanical engineering, or other engineering discipline with 2+ years progressive and related experience required </li><li>Strong 3D & 2D design/drafting skills per ASME Y14.5M (NX preferred) </li><li>Excellent interpersonal skills with the ability to interface with engineering and manufacturing groups to understand process constraints and provide design inputs for improved manufacturability </li><li>Strong engineering fundamentals in statics, mechanics of materials, process improvement/factory design, fastening and joining, basic metallurgy, machining. </li><li>Working knowledge of common manufacturing processes, tools, inspection methods and GD&T. </li><li>Ability to perform trade studies using first principles and engineering fundamentals </li><li>Highly self-motivated and able to prioritize and execute tasks in a high-pressure environment </li></ul> <p>Nice to haves but not required:</p> <ul> <li>Experience manufacturing large metallic structures; bonus points for fusion welding experience (GTAW, GMAW) </li><li>New product introduction of an aerospace hardware system into a manufacturing, test, and production system with proven success </li><li>Experience in managing projects in a fast-paced environment </li></ul>
