Sierra Space Careers: Dare to Dream
We honor those that are not afraid to dream big dreams, those that tenaciously chase their dreams even when others say it cannot be done, those that achieve big dreams and change everything. Those are Dreams Worth Chasing.
At Sierra Space we envision a future where humanity lives and works in space, on moons, and on distant planets. Our mission isn't restricted to the few, instead we see a future where all people can choose to live, work, discover and explore beyond our planet. Our company is building a platform in space to benefit life on Earth and together we will alter the course of humanity.
We have a bold mission. We are a bold company. Together, we are an extraordinary team.
About the RoleDo you pride yourself in being a creative, integrative engineer with a passion for developing revolutionary technical systems in a collaborative and customer-centric environment? Come join our team! As a Systems Integration Engineer III, you will be using your skills and expertise to define, design, simulate, integrate, test, certify, and support cutting edge products and services. These cover a very wide range from state of the art mission payloads and electronic systems through highly integrated aircraft to orbital and space exploration systems. You'll be responsible for designing systems to meet demanding customer requirements, developing and building complex systems integration labs to verify the design, and integrate a variety of systems together to create a seamless product for the customer. As a cross functional engineer, you'll perform system and component-level integration of new products and develop new integration processes throughout the product lifecycle.
About You
Our mission is driven by the unwavering passion to push the boundaries of what is possible. We seek those who Dare to Dream - to envision the extraordinary and pursue it relentlessly - to join us on this transformational journey.
We're looking for dreamers who align with our values, vision and audacious goals - while also meeting the minimum qualifications below. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.
The Launch Vehicle Integration (LVI) Mission Integrator is responsible for generating and verifying the interface requirements between the Sierra Space designated Spacecraft and the Launch Vehicle (LV). The LVI organization is looking for an experienced engineer to support integration activities between the spacecraft and multiple launch vehicles, including the Vulcan, H3, New Glenn, Falcon Heavy, Starship Super Heavy, Neutron, Terran R, Ariane 6, and other up and coming launch service providers.
Essential Knowledge Includes: Understanding a variety of engineering disciplines necessary to provide coordination between Sierra Space and the LV contractor design teams in support of the development of environmental (shock, vibration, acoustic), thermal, venting, gas velocity impingement, contamination, mechanical/electrical ground support equipment, mission design, and mechanical/electrical flight interface requirements between the Sierra Space Spacecraft and LV/launch site. Coordinating the distribution and configuration management of integrated system analyses inputs/outputs in a diverse set of technical areas including dynamic environments, control dynamics, structural dynamics, aero-physics, thermal, Avionics (EMC/EMI, RF, and electrical), mechanical, mission design trajectory and performance, contamination, and Ground Support Equipment (GSE). Generation of the LV statement of work Interface Requirements Document (IRD) and Interface Control Document (ICD) between the Spacecraft and LV. Supporting requirement allocation/flowdown to the LV system from the Spacecraft functional areas, and down to various Spacecraft subsystem design specs from the LV system. Negotiating LV interface requirements that affect Spacecraft design with the im acted Sierra Space Spacecraft functional team, and developing optimal system-level solutions to any requirement incompatibilities which arise. Supporting development of test plans and test execution for risk reduction, and requirement verification of Spacecraft and LV hardware interfaces. Developing ICD requirement verifications and closure plan that meet Sierra Space and customer expectations. Manage closure plans and verification evidence for each ICD requirement allocated to the Spacecraft System, including GSE. Planning and execution of technical reviews (e.g. working group meetings, chairing technical interface meetings, design reviews, internal review boards) for both Sierra Space internally and between Sierra Space and the LV contractor. Generating input to and presenting launch systems status at monthly and quarterly program status reviews with Sierra Space's customer and management. Authoring technical and engineering memos as required.
Minimum Qualifications: Bachelor's Degree in a related field of study and typically 6 or more years of relevant experience Relevant experience may count in lieu of required education Comprehensive knowledge of engineering principles and practices. Progressive experience working in multidisciplinary design & development teams Demonstrated understanding and experience with the practical application of requirements development and management, system design, systems integration, technical risk identification, management strategies, and Verification and Validation (V&V) principles Ability to...
