Mechanical Engineer (III-Senior), Space Based Interceptors Mass Properties

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

The next generation of Space Based Interceptors demands hardware that performs flawlessly at hypersonic speeds, survives extreme thermal and aerodynamic environments, and delivers precision intercept against the most advanced threats ever fielded. True Anomaly is building that hardware — and we are looking for engineers who want to be part of it. As a Mechanical Engineer at True Anomaly, you will own the mass properties of the entire vehicle and also play a critical role in designing and developing flight hardware for some of the most technically demanding programs in the defense aerospace industry. From interceptor systems and kill vehicles to hypersonic flight vehicles, you will engineer mechanical systems that must perform flawlessly in extreme thermal, aerodynamic, and high-g environments — building the hardware that matters most when it counts.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Serve as both the mass properties technical authority/subject matter expert and a mechanical design engineer for Space Based Interceptors. Where you will own the mass properties of the entire system as well as piece part design as directed by the REs.
• Own mass properties of all flight vehicle structures and systems — and work with the vehicle REs on component packaging to optimize CG, MOI, and POI.
• Define mass properties definition and tracking methodology while adhering to relevant industry standards including AIAA S-110.
• Support Vehicle level REs in component level design as needed to meet mission level requirements
• Define and maintain vehicle-level mechanical interface control documents (ICDs), mass properties reports, and configuration baselines across program milestones.
• Conform to GD&T standards per ASME Y-14.5-2018, drawing conventions, and CAD model management practices as established by the mechanical engineering department. <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="4" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335
