Job Summary
Mission Brief
We deliver the half of the rocket that stays on the ground. As a Senior Ground Fluid Systems Engineer at Isar Aerospace you deliver the ground fluid infrastructure required for safe reliable and rapid test and launch of the Spectrum rocket. This includes test-rigs for development qualification and acceptance of launch vehicle and propulsion systems as well as entire launch bases. You work hand-in-hand with Propulsion and Launch Vehicle development teams to translate their requirements into functional designs and concepts of operations. You tackle complex engineering challenges across multiple projects and phases from concept to detail design execution commissioning and handover to site owner and operator.
Your Role in Our Space Mission:
- Design fluid systems for test and launch facilities including rocket engine test-rigs structure pressurization test-rigs integrated stage testing rigs launch pads etc.
- Perform sizing calculations and/or numerical simulations for fluid systems including cryogenic propellants storage conditioning and distribution systems high-pressure gas distribution and pressurization systems etc.
- Select and procure suitable fluid hardware including tanks pumps heat-exchangers valves pressure regulators safety-valves instrumentation etc.
- Prepare technical documentation such as PFDs and P&IDs hardware lists datasheets technical notes etc. that serve as a basis for manufacturing planning and execution
- Lead and contribute to system design reviews and risk assessments
- Act as a technical point of contact and subject matter expert for the project and operation teams consulting on fluid system questions and decisions
