About The Position

The Integration & Test Engineer II will contribute to and take partial ownership of the Thrust Structure Integrated Assembly, including secondary structures, fluids, avionics, engine installation, and test checkouts prior to S1 mate. The role drives the assembly’s integration effort through design reviews, work-instruction creation, process and tooling development, and testing. It provides hands-on floor support during build and test, resolves issues in real time, incorporates technician feedback, and advances continuous improvement across hardware flow and processes. The engineer coordinates with Quality Engineering, Fluids Engineering, Production, Avionics, and Supply Chain to communicate schedule needs and drive deliveries for the assembly. The role also addresses non-compliance events through creative problem-solving and project management, authors test procedures, and serves as test conductor to verify installed hardware health and build integrity. This is an onsite second-shift position; the posting describes the shift as Monday through Friday, 2 p.m. to 11 p.m., and also states onsite hours of 3 p.m. to 12 a.m. Employees receive a 10% shift differential in addition to salary.
