The Raptor R&D department is a one-stop hardware development laboratory that supports the Raptor organization’s needs for rapid prototyping and testing of new rocket and engine hardware. Our technicians in this shop are well versed in various manufacturing techniques, hardware assembly and integration, and pressure and electrical testing. As a technician, you will be responsible for rapidly producing and testing development parts, maintaining a high standard of build quality, ensuring tests are being run correctly, and directly interfacing with many engineers of different disciplines on Raptor. This is a dynamic position that requires the flexibility to work on different systems, the ability to troubleshoot anomalies, and the ability to work autonomously on many projects in parallel. T
