Job description

Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you've come to the right place!

E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system that will fundamentally change the design, economics, manufacturing and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.

We're intentional, we're unapologetically curious and we're 100% committed to innovate space-based communications and deliver actionable intelligence that will expand global economies, protect space and our planet and enhance our overall quality of life.

The E-Space Manufacturing team builds the world's most advanced aerospace products at high rate and high precision.

As a Senior Manufacturing Engineer, you'll own the production processes that build our satellites - from process design and validation through ramp to rate. You'll drive yield, cycle-time, and throughput, lead new product introduction, and specify the equipment and tooling that let us scale. This is a hands-on role for someone who has owned high-rate manufacturing processes in production and wants to build a manufacturing engineering function from a strong foundation. This position reports to the Manufacturing Engineering leadership team.

What you'll be doing:

Own manufacturing processes for satellite production lines - from process design and validation through ramp to rate.
Develop work instructions, routings, tooling, and fixtures that make builds repeatable and high-yield.
Drive yield, cycle-time, and throughput improvements using data, root-cause analysis, and structured problem-solving.
Lead new product introduction (NPI) - partnering with design on manufacturability (DFM) and a smooth transition to production.
Specify, justify, and commission production equipment, automation, and capacity expansions.
Lead continuous improvement (Lean, Six Sigma, 5S) and resolve production issues on the floor.
Mentor junior engineers and technicians, and set manufacturing engineering standards.

What you will bring to this role:

5+ years of manufacturing or process engineering experience in a high-rate production environment.
Proven ownership of process design, validation, and ramp for complex electromechanical products.
Strong DFM, GD&T, and root-cause / problem-solving skills (8D, DMAIC, PFMEA).
Experience specifying and commissioning production equipment, tooling, and fixtures.
Hands-on, data-driven, and comfortable leading on the production floor.
BS in Mechanical, Manufacturing, Industrial, or related Engineering, or equivalent.

Extra points for the following:

Aerospace, PV / solar, thin-film, or electronics manufacturing background.
Lean / Six Sigma certification (Green or Black Belt).
Experience integrating automation and robotic cells into production.
Familiarity with MES / ERP systems and statistical process control (SPC).

Additional Requirements

This is a fast-paced, high-impact environment - flexibility to occasionally work extended hours or weekends during critical periods is expected.

$0 - $0 a year

This is a full time, exempt position, based out of our Arlington, TX facility.

We are redefining how satellites are designed, manufactured and used - so we're looking for candidates with passion, deep knowledge and direct experience. If that's your experience, then we'll be immediately wow-ed.

E-Space is not currently able to provide employment sponsorship for candidates who do not hold work authorization for the location of this role.

Why E-Space is right for you:

As a member of our team, you will play a crucial role in driving our success. Our team members have a strong sense of dedication and responsibility; this includes a strong commitment to our mission to create an entirely new suite of global capabilities to improve lives, business efficiencies and build a smarter planet. This means that there will be times when extra hours, including nights and weekends, may be needed to meet critical deadlines and mission goals. In return, we offer a dynamic work environment with opportunities for professional growth and development and the chance to make a meaningful impact in a high-growth industry.

We want you to make the most of your journey at E-Space. That's why we support and invest in the physical, emotional and financial well-being of our team members and their families.
