Lead Propulsion Fluidics Engineer: From Concept to Flight

PAVE Space SA; Villeneuve (VD); Remote; CHF 90.000 - 120.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

PAVE Space SA in Villeneuve (VD) seeks a propulsion subsystem lead responsible for the fluidic architecture of two critical propulsion systems, from concept to flight.

You will own the HTP main engine feed system and the cold gas RCS thruster, develop verification strategies, and contribute hands-on to AIT campaigns. Expect a fast-paced environment with rapid iterations and on-site work.

Qualifikationen

• 2+ years of experience with propellant feed systems, valves, and regulators.
• Degree in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering.
• Strong fundamentals in fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, and heat transfer.
• Proficiency in CAD and fluidic system modelling (NX, Python, MATLAB).
• Understanding of space environment constraints (loads, thermal, vibration, materials).
• Hands-on experience with prototype assembly, fluidic system integration and testing.
• Fluent English.
• Nice to have: full prototype lifecycle experience, French language skills.

Aufgaben

• Size and design the HTP main engine feed system, from concept to flight.
• Size and design the cold gas RCS thruster and feed system, from concept to flight.
• Verification and validation strategy for both propulsion fluidic systems.
• Fluidic Ground Support Equipment design for system testing, validation, and launch pad fuelling.
• Hands-on contribution to Assembly, Integration, and Test campaigns: troubleshooting, functional tests, environmental testing support.
