Cryogenic Rocket Launch Vehicle Expert

2015-01-06 23:05:58| Space-careers.com Jobs RSS

About Rocket Lab For most people the idea of a rocket launch brings up images from the Apollo era monstrous booster engines, groundshaking noise, and a behemoth of a machine slowly climbing against the grasp of Earths gravity. This iconic image, the one that transformed us into a spacegoing species, captures the power and strength of rockets. But it is not the image that will make space a commercial reality. Replace this image with the bustle of a high speed assembly line, where rocket boosters feed off a conveyor belt connecting to preencapsulated payload stages, rolling out on to the launch pad one after the other. This image, by contrast, is about speed and efficiency and what the Rocket Lab Electron orbital project is all about. Rocket Lab has created a legacy of excellence by developing innovative solutions to ambitious aerospace problems for the likes of DARPA and other technically demanding customers. Now fully funded by major Silicon Valley venture capital funds, Rocket Lab is focused on redefining how the world accesses space by building Electron a revolutionary launch system designed to meet the launch requirements of the rapidly expanding small satellite market. Known in the industry for rapidly developing cost effective solutions from the ground up, Rocket Lab believes in giving highly skilled engineers ownership of complex aerospace systems from start to finish. This ethos offers engineers the satisfaction of moving from the conceptualization and design phase through to hands on work building, testing and ultimately flying their creations. Rocket Lab also offers a unique opportunity for the worlds best and brightest engineers to work with a young team passionate about what they are doing while also enjoying the high standard of living New Zealand has to offer. About The Role Working as part of the Electron Vehicle Team, you will have the opportunity to work on a new launch vehicle using state of the art composite cryogenic rocket tanks and manufacture techniques. You will make a real difference. As a senior orbital vehicle systems expert, you will have technical oversight on the design, testing and qualification of all onboard systems, including rocket tank pressurisation and filling subsystems, staging and control systems, procedures, etc. We need your expertise to make our launchrange the worlds shortest turningtime spaceport. To achieve this, we need stateoftheart ground infrastructure and organisation. Minimum Requirements 5 years work experience in cryogenic rocket launch vehicle design, construction, qualification and operations. Deep technical understandingof cryogenic rocket tanks, stages separation and control systems. Deep technical knowledge ground support, launch preparation and operation. Proactive, enthusiastic, creative and open to learning. Capable of working as part of a team as well as autonomously The ability to work under pressure and to tight deadlines Heavy emphasis on achievement getting things done efficiently and effectively. The ability to take a flexible approach and to adapt to change quickly and positively Have tenacity, a can do attitude and the ability to think quickly and make accurate judgements.
