FULL TIME

Here at The Exploration Company, we are developing, producing, and operating Nyx, a modular and reusable space orbital vehicle that can eventually be refuelled in orbit and that can carry cargo - and potentially humans in the longer run.
We want you as a talented MGSE CAD Designer to help us in our mission by designing and delivering all the MGSE needed for our prototype “Nyx Earth”

You will be successful in this role if you are able to help us:
  • Elaborate the concept of all the MGSEs (mechanical + electro-mechanical)
  • Make Calculation/stress analysis demonstrating good safety margins
  • Deliver the CAD (3D models of all the GSE)
  • Deliver the detailed design (2D) (when needed if CAD is not sufficient) of all the parts to be manufactured
Key Responsibilities
In your capacity as MGSE CAD Designer, your role will be continuously evolving, but day to day duties will include:

  • Under the supervision of the Chief AIT, design with CAD all the MGSEs that we will need for assembly
  • Confirm with mechanical analysis/hand calculations that the design is compatible with the external loads
  • Support also the design of automation parts (few electrical motors with variators and control to move some parts)
  • Discuss with suppliers the MGSE designs for ease of manufacturing and with the most adequate processes
  • Follow up the manufacturing with the suppliers (with the support of our supply chain in Germany) and answer the technical questions/concerns they might face.
  • You will support the AIT technicians to install these MGSE if needed.

In the role of MGSE CAD Designer ideally, you will have the following:
  • Mechanical engineering degree or mechanical technician
  • Minimum 2 years of experience in CAD design and software (Catia, Siemens NX or similar)
  • Experience with tooling or MGSE design would be highly appreciated
  • Experience with design of welded structures, frames, etc. would be highly appreciated
  • Experience with design of test setups, jigs, fixtures and planning/execution of mechanical tests in-house would be a plus
  • Good communication
  • Creative with innovative ideas and technical problem solving/troubleshooting skills
  • Aware of all the different manufacturing processes (e.g. machining, welding, etc.)
  • Basic hand-on experience with mechanical assembly and simple machining tools like drilling machine.
  • Previous experience in space AIT would be appreciated but not mandatory
