Mechanical Test Engineer (II-Senior)

Space is a warfighting domain. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build the technology that secures it.

OUR MISSION

True Anomaly delivers decisive capabilities for space superiority. We build autonomous spacecraft, advanced payloads, mission software, and space-based interceptors — enabling the U.S. and its Allies to secure the space environment and counter threats from the ultimate high ground.

OUR VALUES

• Be the offset. We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity.
• What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results.
• It’s the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together.

YOUR MISSION

We are seeking highly motivated Mechanical Test Engineers to support the design, planning, and execution of test campaigns for spacecraft mechanical systems and hardware. You will work closely with mechanical design engineers, systems engineers, and production teams to ensure mechanical hardware meets performance, environmental, and mission-critical requirements. In this role, you will develop test plans, execute mechanical system tests, design and build test fixtures and ground support equipment, collect and analyze data, disposition anomalies, and verify that hardware meets all specifications. The position offers an excellent opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge spacecraft mechanical technologies in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Define and lead test strategies for mechanical system programs, including requirements verification, procedure development, and execution oversight.

• Author and review mechanical test documentation including plans, procedures, readiness reports, and compliance matrices.

• Analyze complex mechanical system test data, resolve anomalies, and lead root cause investigations and corrective actions.

• Oversee mechanical test campaigns including acceptance testing, functional/performance testing, qualification testing, and integration testing, ensuring full traceability to system requirements.

• Design, build, commission, and operate mechanical test fixtures and ground support equipment in support of testing operations.

• Interface with program leadership, customers, and regulatory bodies during design reviews and formal mechanical test events.
