About The Position

We’re looking for an Integration & Test Engineer to support the assembly, integration, and verification of large space structures and flight hardware. You’ll work closely with design engineering, manufacturing, and test teams to ensure hardware is integrated safely, correctly, and efficiently. This role spans both hands‑on support on the build floor and technical development of test procedures, system checkouts, and integrated operations. As an Integration & Test Engineer, you’ll help define test setups, support mechanical/electrical/fluid system bring‑up, resolve integration issues, and ensure hardware meets flight‑ready requirements.

Requirements

3–5+ years of experience in integration, testing, or systems‑focused engineering
Experience with mechanical, electrical, or fluid system assembly or checkout
Familiarity with test execution involving pressure systems, electrical systems, or avionics
Ability to interpret engineering drawings, wiring diagrams, and fluid schematics
Experience writing or executing test procedures
Strong problem‑solving skills using first‑principles and hands‑on troubleshooting
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Aerospace, Electrical, or related engineering field
Comfortable working in fast‑paced environments with shifting priorities
Ability to lift up to 25 lbs and work around large hardware
Willingness to work evenings/weekends or travel occasionally to support critical operations
Candidates must be willing to work on Civil, Commercial, and Defense-related projects.
To conform to U.S. Government space technology export regulations, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) you must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.

Nice To Haves

Experience with integration or test of spacecraft, launch vehicles, aircraft, or other high‑reliability systems
Familiarity with environmental testing (thermal, vibration, shock, pressure, EMI/EMC)
Experience with leak testing, pressure systems, hazardous operations, or GN2/He/propellant systems
Knowledge of instrumentation, sensors, and data acquisition systems
Experience developing work instructions or supporting technicians during integration
Experience in safety‑critical or configuration‑controlled environments
Experience performing hands‑on mechanical or electrical assembly

Responsibilities

Support mechanical, electrical, and fluid system integration for flight and ground hardware
Develop, refine, and execute test procedures for subsystem and system‑level tests
Support functional checkouts, leak checks, pressure tests, electrical continuity tests, and integrated system operations
Drive preparation of test equipment, ground support equipment (GSE), sensors, and instrumentation
Assist in diagnosing integration issues and support corrective actions with engineering and technicians
Review engineering drawings, electrical schematics, and interface control documents (ICDs)
Ensure hardware is integrated in compliance with safety standards, configuration control, and quality requirements
Support test data review, anomaly documentation, and issue tracking
Participate in lifting, mating, and alignment operations for large assemblies
Collaborate with manufacturing, design, quality, and operations teams during build‑to‑test handoffs
Contribute to improvements of integration processes, test methods, and test documentation
