NX Expert

ABOUT US:

Astro Mechanica is a vertically integrated aerospace company building a faster, more connected future. Our mission is to democratize high-speed flight by making supersonic travel flexible, accessible, and sustainable. We believe that rapid, on-demand, point-to-point global mobility will become the new standard for moving people and goods across the planet. To achieve this, we are integrating our advanced airframe and engine technologies—which include Duality™, our proprietary dual-use propulsion system—with a new flight operations model to make supersonic transport as efficient and economical as commercial air travel is today. In the near term, we are developing adaptable, high-speed systems to close aircraft performance gaps for the United States government.

WHO WE ARE:

We're a team of hardcore engineers who live and breathe aerospace. We’re generalists who each have subject matter expertise and operate in a flat organizational structure. We move fast and build world-changing technology in a pragmatic and competent workplace culture.

WHO YOU ARE:

Astro Mechanica is seeking an NX Expert with deep expertise in 5-axis programming, CAM workflows, and shop-floor training. You thrive at the intersection of digital programming and hands-on shop-floor execution, bridging the gap between design intent and manufactured reality. You take pride in building parts that push the boundaries of aerospace performance, and you’re motivated by solving hard problems in a fast-paced, high-accountability environment.

WHAT YOU’LL DO:

  • Instruct the prototyping team in Siemens NX best practices, workflows, and toolpath strategies

  • Program initial parts (focus on 5-axis machining) to validate and optimize workflows

  • Configure NX software and post processors for our equipment

  • Work with the team to develop a digital tool library aligned with the physical tooling inventory

  • Provide fixture design, post-processor tuning, and workflow optimization guidance

  • Deliver hands-on training and mentoring to ensure the team can execute with precision and efficiency

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR:

  • Proven expertise in Siemens NX CAD/CAM, with strong focus on 5-axis programming

  • Experience configuring post processors and integrating with shop-floor equipment

  • Deep understanding of toolpath strategies, fixture design, and workflow optimization

  • Prior experience training and mentoring prototyping/machining teams

  • Ability to align digital environments with real-world tooling and machining practices

PERKS AND BENEFITS:

  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance, including Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA)

  • 401(k) program and transparent stock option plan

  • Self-managed and flexible time-off policy, including PTO, paid holidays, and sick time

  • Flexible work environment

  • Company-funded perks, including weekly team lunches and Astro Mechanica swag

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

At Astro Mechanica, we highly value in-office work to foster collaboration and strengthen our company culture. We consider working in the office five days a week an essential part of the employee's role.

Astro Mechanica is an equal opportunity employer. We proudly recruit and hire a diverse workforce and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
