MECHANICAL DESIGNER, AUTOMATION & CONTROLS (STARSHIP LAUNCH PAD) 

The Starship Tower & Launch Mount team is looking for controls designers to help make the next generation of launch pads a reality. This role will be focused on bridging the gap between system architecture and build – that is, developing electrical schematics, sizing conveyances, interfacing with fluids and mechanical components, detailed design of conduits and bracketry, and design of control panels. These systems will be involved in interfacing with the next generation of Starship vehicles, catching both stages, and reaching a rapid and automated flight cadence requiring no manual actions between launches. 

RESPONSIBILITES: 

• Detail electrical schematics in collaboration with automation & controls engineers who architect the systems 
• Perform conduit fill calculations and initial sizing of conveyances 
• Create CAD models and drawings of conduits, control panels, bracketry, and related access provisions 
• Perform basic structural analysis and use best practices to ensure designs are sufficiently robust for the challenging environment of the launch pad 
• Translate designs into planning as the basis for install in the field 
• Documentation of designs as well as best practices 

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:   

• Bachelor’s degree in a science or engineering discipline; or 2+ years of professional experience in designing mechanical, fluids, or electrical systems in lieu of a degree

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE: 

• Experience modeling with 3D CAD software (e.g. NX/Unigraphics, Catia, SolidWorks, Fusion 360) 
• Familiarity with design of weldments and sheet metal structures 
• Experience using EPlan 
• Knowledge of NEC, NFPA 79 codes 
• Experience designing and installing instrumentation and control systems in hazardous areas (NFPA 70 Section 500 installations); Class 1, Division 1 and Division 2 environments or IEC equivalence 
• Capable of solving problems with little to no supervision on schedule as an individual or as a member of an integrated team 
• Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal 
• Experience in fast-paced, demanding iterative design and manufacturing environments 

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS: 

• Willing to work extended hours and weekends as needed 
• Stand: Up to 6 hours per day
• Sit: Up to 6 hours per day
• Push/Pull: Up to ≤ 50 lbs. (unassisted) 15 minutes or less per day
• Overhead reach: Up to 3 hours per day
• Walk: Up to 10 hours per day
• Lift/Carry: Up to ≤ 25 lbs. (unassisted) 15 minutes or less per day
• Climb (ladder/stairs): Up to 10 hours per day
• Kneel/Crouch: Up to 3 hours per day
• Upper body twist: Up to 3 hours per day
• Ability to work in temperatures over 80 degrees 6 hours or greater per day
• Candidate must be capable of safely working at heights (up to 500ft), in confined spaces, using an air purifying respirator, operating heavy equipment and machinery, and performing the physical requirements of the job listed in the job description
• Candidate may be required to complete a pre-employment questionnaire and/or physical to confirm these capabilities, which may include a medical history review.
