Наша компания

K2 is building the largest and highest-power satellites ever flown, unlocking performance levels previously out of reach across every orbit. Backed by over $1 billion in total funding from leading investors including Altimeter Capital, ICONIQ, Kleiner Perkins, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Redpoint Ventures, and T. Rowe Price — and with over $1 billion in signed contracts across commercial and US government customers, we're mass-producing the highest-power satellite platforms ever built for missions from LEO to deep space. The rise of heavy-lift launch vehicles is shifting the industry from an

О роли

With multiple launches in 2027 and plans to scale to 100 satellites a year, we're Building Bigger — helping develop the solar system and build toward a Kardashev Type II (K2) civilization. If you are a motivated individual who thrives in a fast-paced environment and you're excited about contributing to the success of a high-growth Series D-funded company, we'd love for you to apply.

Чем предстоит заниматься

Partnering with design engineers early on in the process, you will ensure manufacturability, build the first prototype, design the build flow and fixturing, and finalize the process for transition to production. You will test out new techniques for manufacturing large satellite structures, harnessing, mechanisms, and integrated electronics systems. In your first 6 months you will develop manufacturing methods and tooling for integrated avionics systems, define manufacturing flows for subsystems, and collaborate with design teams to improve the manufacturability of spacecraft components. In your first year you will implement these advanced manufacturing techniques on flight hardware and transition the technology you develop to production

Collaborate with design engineers to ensure design for manufacturability for initial design, flight hardware, and tooling

Develop innovative manufacturing systems for large spacecraft assemblies, including electromechanical sub-assemblies, harnessing, welded/bolted structures, and mechanisms

Create custom tools and processes to support the manufacturing technologies you create including Manufacturing Execution System (MES) software

Demonstrate the advanced manufacturing techniques on prototypes, working with the design teams to improve the manufacturability of the designs

Develop the subassembly build flow and iterate to create an efficient production flow for the satellite

Partner with a team of advanced manufacturing engineers to perform R&D of novel manufacturing technologies for current and future spacecraft products

Наши требования

Bachelor’s degree in electrical, mechanical, aerospace, or other relevant engineering discipline

3+ years of experience in a high volume, rapid production environment in a manufacturing, integration, and/or design engineering role

Demonstrated results with product development and/or process improvements

Experience setting up a manufacturing/production floor for first article builds

Experience designing and implementing technologies for avionics subassembly manufacturing including wire harness manufacturing and PCBA/mechanical enclosure assembly

Experience designing tooling for mechanical subassemblies and electronics

Experience designing hardware for manufacturability

Demonstrated experience developing production processes from the ground up including driving design improvements for manufacturing

Experience working closely with technicians and build tooling

Experience with aerospace manufacturing standards such as soldering standards, torque specifications, welding standards, and quality assurance standards

Familiarity with CAD software (NX or equivalent) and geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T)

Experience working with MES to set up the foundation for procedure creation and documenting non-conformances

Мы предлагаем

Salary will be based on several factors including, but not limited to: knowledge and skills, education, and experience level

Comprehensive benefits package including paid time off, medical/dental/vision/ coverage, life insurance, paid parental leave, and many other perks

If you don’t meet 100% of the preferred skills and experience, we encourage you to still apply! Building a spacecraft unlike any other requires a team unlike any other and non-traditional career twists and turns are encouraged!

Export Compliance

As defined in the ITAR, “U.S. Persons” include U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents (i.e., Green Card holders), and certain protected individuals (e.g., refugees/asylees, American Samoans). Please consult with a knowledgeable advisor if you are unsure whether you are a “U.S. Person.”
