Senior Fluid Systems / Process Design Engineer

Mission Brief

We deliver the half of the rocket that stays on the ground. As a Senior Fluid Systems Design Engineer at the Ground Systems department of Isar Aerospace, you deliver the ground fluid infrastructure required for safe, reliable, and rapid test and launch of the Spectrum rocket. This includes test-rigs for development, qualification, and acceptance of launch vehicle and propulsion systems as well as entire launch bases. You work hand-in-hand with Propulsion and Launch Vehicle development teams to translate their requirements into functional designs and concepts of operations. You tackle complex engineering challenges across multiple projects and phases – from concept to detail design, execution, commissioning, and handover to site owner and operator.

Your Role in Our Space Mission:

• Design fluid systems for test and launch facilities, including rocket engine test-rigs, structure pressurization test-rigs, integrated stage testing rigs, launch pads, etc.

• Perform sizing calculations and/or numerical simulations for fluid systems, including cryogenic propellants storage, conditioning, and distribution systems, high-pressure gas distribution and pressurization systems, etc.

• Select and procure suitable fluid hardware , including tanks, pumps, heat-exchangers, valves, pressure regulators, safety-valves, instrumentation, etc.

• Prepare technical documentation , such as PFDs and P&IDs, hardware lists, datasheets, etc. that serve as a basis for manufacturing planning and execution

• Lead and contribute to system design reviews and risk assessments , ensuring safety, reliability, and compliance
