- was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of enabling human life on Mars.
- Aggressively-paced, constantly-evolving, results-focused, real-as-it-gets engineering positions available for the ambitious. We design, build, activate, modify, improve, and maintain the fluid and mechanical systems that launch the most powerful rocket in the world. You can plan on having your skills put to the test, having hardware you designed, made, and installed the same day in a development-focused environment. From tens of thousands of gallons per minute of cryogens to tens of pounds per second of high-pressure gas, we develop clever solutions to meet the needs of a demanding launch and test program both today and for the future.
