Launch Integration Engineer II Verified today

About the Team

The Launch team operates at the intersection of every major aspect of Terran R, from stages and payloads to ground systems, launch, landing, and refurbishment. The Cape is the only place where you see it all come together, offering a level of exposure and responsibility unmatched elsewhere in the program.

About the Role

• Author vehicle processing and checkouts at the launch site from receiving to launch operations, ensuring execution readiness and product quality across subassemblies and integrated systems.
• Develop and release detailed build flows, work instructions, and test procedures to support consistent, high-quality execution across initial builds and ongoing programs.
• Support first article builds in a fast-paced environment by focusing on repeatability and quality while developing scalable processes that enable a smooth transition to higher launch rates.
• Provide hands-on floor support during build and test, resolve issues in real time, incorporate technician feedback, and drive continuous improvement across hardware flow and process discipline.
• Coordinate across design, supply chain, production, and test teams to support part readiness, tooling availability, schedule alignment, and smooth handoffs between build stages.
• Contribute to the development of long-term manufacturing systems and infrastructure, including tooling strategies, ERP/MES workflows, and production documentation standards.

About You

• Degree in engineering or a related technical field, with 2+ years of hands-on experience building and testing hardware in a manufacturing or integration environment.
• Experience investigating hardware issues, resolving non-conformances, and performing root cause analysis with corrective actions implemented effectively.
• Familiarity with general assembly and test procedures, including structural proof testing and pressurized leak checks.
• Ability to interface effectively across design, manufacturing, supply chain, and test teams to ensure hardware quality and schedule alignment.
• Experience collaborating with technicians, engineers, and external vendors.
• Proficiency in CAD and basic design or test analysis, with experience in mechanical assembly of large-scale, complex systems.

Nice to Have

• Experience supporting new aerospace product introduction or transitioning hardware from development to operational use, particularly in high-rate or scaling environments.
• Experience authoring and executing test procedures, including acting as a test conductor for system-level verification or large mechanical assemblies and crane operations.
• Familiarity with AS9100 or ISO9001 quality management systems.
• Familiarity with hazardous operations, fluid system safety, or test execution involving pressurized or high-risk environments.
• Experience in fast-paced or lean environments, including collaboration with production and test sites, tool development, or leading small teams through complex build or test efforts.
• Availability for travel to production and test sites supporting Terran R development.
