Manufacturing Engineer

They say the best deployable is no deployable, but we believe large deployable mechanisms are the future for large infrastructure in space. At Beyond Reach Labs, we are designing and building the largest deployable structures ever flown to space. As an engineering-driven organization, you will be at the forefront of the company's key technology development. To make this possible, our deployables need to move from hand-built prototypes to a repeatable, qualified production line. As a Manufacturing Engineer, you will be hands-on in building qualification and flight units and in developing the processes, tooling, and documentation that make them repeatable. You will work closely with design engineers and technicians on the shop floor, and help shape how the production line grows. Key Responsibilities:

• Build and Integration:

• Quality and Process:

• Suppliers and Shop Support:

Basic Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field.

• 1+ years of experience in manufacturing, assembly, or test of spaceflight, launch vehicle, or similar high-reliability hardware.

• Experience writing work instructions or travelers for hardware builds.

• Hands-on experience with mechanical assembly, tooling, or fixture design.

• Proficiency with CAD (for example, SolidWorks, NX, or Onshape) and GD&T.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience supporting a product’s transition from prototype to repeatable production.

• Familiarity with AS9100 quality systems and nonconformance processes.

• Experience with deployable mechanisms, solar arrays, or cable-tensioned structures.

• Experience working with precision machining, composites, or coatings suppliers.

Additional Requirements:

• Willingness to work extended hours and weekends as necessary to support critical project milestones.

• Must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident, or eligible for authorization under U.S. export regulations.
