Los Angeles, United States Apex Space Full time

Spacecraft represent the most pressing unmet need across the entire aerospace industry. As launch costs decrease, more and more companies and governments are launching increasingly large numbers of smaller satellites. For the first time in history, this increase in demand is driving a massive need for spacecraft platforms, known as satellite buses. Satellite buses carry customers’ payloads and are delivered to space on launch vehicles. Apex manufactures satellite buses at scale using a combination of disruptive software, vertical integration, and hardware that is adesigned for manufacturing. Our satellite buses are truly productized to enable a wide set of missions, ranging from earth observation to communications and more, that advance our future as a society. We’d love for you to join us on our mission.Please note: our employees view Apex as their life’s mission. As such, we have an intense culture of curiosity, hunger, and results. If you want a typical 9-5 job, this is not the place for you. If you live and breathe aerospace, if you believe the future of humanity is beyond Earth, and if you want to be a foundational member of that journey beyond our planet, Apex is the place for you. This will be an intense, results-focused mission, where you will be surrounded by a passionate team that strives to move quickly, reliably, and intelligently. Responsibilities

Develop mechanical designs and models for satellite structures, subsystems, and components. Conduct structural analyses to ensure compliance with performance and reliability requirements. Optimize designs for weight reduction, material selection, and manufacturability. Evaluate and select appropriate materials and processes for satellite mechanical systems. Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate mechanical systems with other subsystems (e.g., electrical, thermal, propulsion). Participate in the assembly, integration, and testing (AIT) process of satellite hardware. Perform environmental testing, such as statics, vibration, shock, and thermal vacuum tests, to validate mechanical designs. Prepare technical documentation, including engineering drawings, specifications, and test reports. Maintain accurate records of design changes, test results, and other engineering documentation. Generate comprehensive reports and presentations to communicate design concepts, analysis results, and recommendations to stakeholders. Stay updated with the latest advancements in satellite engineering and mechanical design technologies. Identify areas for improvement in design methodologies, manufacturing processes, and quality control. Contribute to research and development projects aimed at enhancing satellite performance and capabilities. Qualifications
