ABOUT ENGINEERING AT ROCKET LAB:
Engineering is the heart of Rocket Lab. We build world-class rockets and spacecraft and we launch them, often.
As a Development Engineer for Electron Propulsion, you'll design, test and refine the systems that get Electron to orbit. That means engines, turbopumps, valves, injectors and the fluid systems that feed them.
First sketch to flight-ready hardware. You'll define the requirements, iterate in NX with analysis and manufacturing engineers, own the EBOM, and release the drawings that get parts built, then plan and run the test campaign, from component rigs to hot fire, that proves your hardware is ready to fly. And once it's flying, you'll define how it's operated and maintained.
It's hands-on, fast-paced problem solving where rapid innovation meets the highest safety standards and your hardware launches.
