Feed System Functional Engineer

Here at The Exploration Company, we are building spacecrafts for humanity.

You will own the functional architecture and performance of the propellant feed system for a storable bipropellant propulsion system (MON3-MMH system). You will be responsible for ensuring the feed system delivers propellants to the thrusters within required specifications across the full mission envelope — from ground fill through operation, and recovery.

Role Overview

System Architecture

• Define and maintain the functional architecture of the feed system including propellant tanks, lines, valves, filters, thrusters and instrumentation.

• Perform system-level sizing, sensitivity analyses and functional simulations

System Development

• Define functional requirements for subsystems based on propellant system analyses

• Identify key verification and validation steps required at the system and subsystem level to demonstrate compliance with specification

Modeling & Analysis

• Develop and maintain fluid system models (steady-state and tr
