Senior Mechanical and Thermal Design Engineer (Space Division)

Astrome is looking for a skilled Mechanical and Thermal Design Engineer to join our team. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in mechanical design, thermal analysis, and structural analysis. You will be responsible for designing and analyzing mechanical components, thermal systems, and structural elements for satellite systems. You will work closely with other engineers to ensure the overall system reliability and performance.

Responsibilities:

• Mechanical Architecture and Design: Develop and define the mechanical architecture of the satellite bus, ensuring optimal design and sizing to meet mission requirements and performance specifications.
• Structural Integrity: Ensure that the satellite bus structure is designed to withstand the rigorous launch loads, including shock, vibration, and acceleration forces, while maintaining operational integrity during the satellites lifetime.
• Deployment Mechanisms Design: Design and implement various deployment mechanisms for satellite subsystems, ensuring smooth and reliable deployment of solar arrays, antennas, and other components in space.

Thermal Design: Develop thermal management solutions to meet the temperature requirements of all satellite components, ensuring proper heat dissipation and maintaining the operational temperature range for critical systems throughout the mission.
