Job description

We’re not just designing an engine — we’re building the systems, tooling, and processes to assemble one from scratch. As a Integration Engineer focused on engine assembly, you’ll define how Superpower comes together: how components are staged, assembled, torqued, inspected, and tested. If you’ve lived inside turbomachinery builds, engine overhauls, or high-stakes mechanical assemblies — this is where you can leave your mark.

Role Overview

• Define and own engine assembly processes for Superpower from first build through production.
• Develop assembly sequences, tooling, fixtures, and work instructions.
• Capture, document, and continuously refine engine assembly knowledge — translating hard-earned build. experience into clear work instructions, build sequences, tooling requirements, and lessons learned that enable repeatable, high-quality assembly.
• Partner with design, quality, and test teams to ensure assemblies meet performance and reliability requirements.
• Support hands-on engine builds, troubleshooting fit-up and assembly issues in real time.
• Drive continuous improvement in assembly efficiency, quality, and repeatability.
• Support engine teardown, inspection, and rebuild activities as designs evolve.
• Help scale assembly operations as Superpower moves toward higher-rate production.

The Ideal Candidate

• Experience as a Manufacturing Engineer supporting engine or turbomachinery assembly.
• Hands‑on exposure to gas turbine, turbofan, or industrial engine builds.
• Strong mechanical intuition and ability to diagnose assembly-related issues.
• Comfortable working closely with technicians and test teams during live builds.
• Fluent in interpreting drawings, tolerances, and assembly requirements.
• Demonstrates a strong work ethic and ambition, complemented by effective collaboration skills in a team setting.
• Excels in a high‑energy, independent, and challenging work environment.
• Calm, methodical approach when things don’t fit the first time (because they won’t).

What Will Set You Apart

• Background in engine MRO, prototype engine programs, or first‑article builds.
• Active or prior FAA Airframe & Powerplant (A&P) certification.
• Experience transitioning engine assembly from prototype to production.

Compensation

The Base Salary Range for this position is $150,000 - $190,000 per year. Actual salaries will vary based on factors including but not limited to location, experience, and performance.
