Garden Grove, United States Auriga Space Full time

About Us: Auriga Space is developing an electromagnetic space launch system that offers significant advantages in launch cost, reliability, frequency, and responsiveness compared to conventional systems. Unlike rockets that rely solely on chemical reactions to produce thrust, Auriga's proprietary electromagnetic launch solution uses electricity to accelerate the launch vehicle to hypervelocity.


Role Summary: We are looking for a mechanical/aerospace engineer (or similar) to join our team and help drive hardware projects through their life cycle: starting with requirements generation, concept development, detail design, manufacturing, and finally testing and commissioning. The ideal candidate will thrive in a start-up environment and be excited to work with a small, high-performing, and hands-on team. 


Basic Qualifications:

  • Has obtained a bachelor’s degree in engineering, physics, math, or similar field of study
  • 2+ years of applied engineering experience (such as internship, laboratory, or personal/team project experience)
  • Strong comprehension of design fundamentals
  • Experience with 3D CAD software
  • Willing to work in a hands-on, constantly evolving environment
  • Detail-oriented and capable of effectively prioritizing and executing tasks
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills


Desired Qualifications:

  • 24+ months of applied engineering experience (such as internship, laboratory, or personal/team project experience)
