Here at The Exploration Company, we are developing, producing, and operating Nyx, a modular and reusable space orbital vehicle

that can eventually be refuelled in orbit and that can carry cargo - and potentially humans in the longer run.

We are also developing different types of propulsion systems to power our future vehicles and missions. As a talented Turbopump

AIT Engineer, you will be responsible for supporting the development of our turbopumps for the Storm and Typhoon engines.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES / TASKS:

In your capacity as a Turbopump AIT Engineer, your role will be continuously evolving, but day to day your duties will include:

Define and implement subcomponent test strategies to ensure the appropriate level of technical maturity and readiness prior to

turbopump and engine-level testing.

Design, develop, and validate test assemblies and dedicated tooling required to execute subcomponent and component-level tests

effectively and safely.

Prepare and execute assembly procedures for turbopump test articles and flight hardware, including inspection plans, propellant

compatibility verification, cleanliness, FOD control requirements and design of specific means.

Lead high-precision mechanical assembly of turbopump hardware, including bearings, rotors, stators, and seals, with controlled

torque application and full traceability.

Manage fluid interfaces and instrumentation on test articles (propellants, cooling, purge, lubrication), and provide technical

inputs to support integration at turbopump and engine levels.

Support test preparation and execution activities in close collaboration with test bench teams, ensuring smooth operations both

at internal and external test facilities.

Act as a technical interface with design engineering teams, providing feedback to optimize designs for manufacturability,

assembly, integration, and testability (MAIT).

Collaborate closely with multidisciplinary teams and external partners, including development engineers, AIT engineers and

technicians, suppliers, and test facility operators, throughout the full test campaign lifecycle.

WHAT WE WOULD LOVE TO SEE FROM YOU:

Bachelor's, master's or PhD in aerospace engineering, mechanical engineering, or a related field (master's and above

preferred).

2+ years of experience in turbopump design, testing, or closely related fields (Engineer II)

Hands-on experience with pump or rotating machinery testing (or equivalent experimental work)

Exposure to dynamic seals and high-duty bearings is a strong plus

Exposure to manufacturing processes (e.g. machining, welding, additive manufacturing, surface treatments, inspections) and

their impact on tolerances and performance is highly valued

Solid understanding of cryogenics, thermodynamics, and fluid dynamics

Familiarity with rocket propulsion and thermophysical property tools (e.g. CEA, CoolProp, RefProp)

Experience or interest in statistical analysis and data-driven methods (e.g. surrogate models, Bayesian approaches) is a plus

Solution-oriented mindset, with the creativity and curiosity to tackle complex technical challenges

Strong communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively in multidisciplinary teams

Why you should join us!

What makes us special here at The Exploration Company and why we think you will enjoy working here is:

We’re Agile - we make decisions fast whilst keeping our goals and systems in mind

We’re Open and Collaborative - we are transparent about risks and obstacles, so that we can cooperate to overcome them

We have a lot of Fun - we refuel our energy knowing we are democratising space. It’s a wonderful and rare opportunity, are YOU

up for the challenge?
