  • Collaborate with mechanical, thermal, electrical, and software teams for integrated solutions.
  • Develop test plans, define verification criteria, and execute qualification campaigns.
  • Create and maintain design documentation, production packages, and integration procedures.
  • Support vehicle integration and flight operations, including troubleshooting on hardware in test or flight.
  • Drive schedule and technical tradeoffs to keep hardware projects on track for launch milestones.

Education
