Manufacturing Engineer, Solar Array Systems
4 weeks ago
At Sierra Space, we're pushing the boundaries of what's possible in space exploration. As a Manufacturing Engineer in the Solar Power group, you'll be part of a team responsible for building and integrating solar array systems that power spacecraft for customers in all sectors of the space economy.
Our team has developed novel pick-and-place surface mount solar cell technology that will revolutionize the way space-rated solar power systems are built. You'll work alongside the design, test, program management, and quality teams to ensure that all schedule and quality objectives are consistently met for our customers, and that we're advancing the state of the art for Solar Array build efficiency.
Key responsibilities include reviewing engineering designs for producibility, developing tooling, fixtures, and facilities, establishing the overall build plan, authoring procedures and work instructions, supporting execution on the production floor, delivering finished flight hardware to the customer, and driving process improvements to accelerate build rate and improve quality.
