Your space-enabled career begins here

Who We’re Looking For

Quantum Space is redefining mobility and autonomy in cislunar and geostationary space. Our Ranger spacecraft deliver high delta-V and on-orbit maneuverability that enable customers to access, operate, and persist in orbits previously out of reach. We’re building the infrastructure, vehicles, and operational expertise that connect and protect assets across the Earth–Moon system.

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Spacecraft Integration and Test Engineer to lead the full lifecycle of spacecraft I&T, from planning and procedure development to test execution, anomaly resolution, and flight readiness. You will collaborate across multidisciplinary teams to ensure reliability, functionality, and mission readiness of complex space systems.

Where You’ll Make an Impact

• Develop and maintain integration and test schedules, plans, and procedures, including environmental, functional, and performance testing.
• Lead and support hands-on integration and test campaigns for flight hardware and software.
• Direct technicians and coordinate with subsystem and systems engineering teams during I&T activities.
• Analyze test data and telemetry to verify functionality and performance against requirements.
• Generate detailed test reports and provide status updates to leadership and stakeholders.
• Troubleshoot and resolve hardware and software anomalies; lead root cause analysis efforts.
• Recommend and implement process improvements to increase efficiency and reliability.
• Support launch campaigns and on-site testing activities.
• Operate electrical and mechanical ground support equipment (EGSE and MGSE) for testing.

What It Takes

• Bachelor’s degree in Aerospace, Electrical, Systems Engineering, or related technical discipline.
• 10+ years of experience in spacecraft or satellite integration, test, and operations.
• Hands-on experience with hardware testing and assembly for complex aerospace systems.
• Proficiency with scripting languages such as Python for test automation and data analysis.
• Strong understanding of performance, mission simulation, and fault management testing.
• Knowledge of environmental testing (TVAC, vibration, acoustic, EMI/EMC).
• Experience with data acquisition systems (DAQ) and interpreting test results.
• Proven hardware/software troubleshooting and anomaly resolution skills.
• Excellent written and verbal communication; ability to produce clear procedures and reports.
• Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Security Clearance.

Nice to Have

• Master’s degree in an engineering discipline.
• Experience with subsystems such as C&DH avionics, EPS, GN&C, or RF payloads.
• Familiarity with HWIL test equipment.
• Experience with standards such as MIL-STD-810 or NASA-STD-8739.
• Experience with configuration management and requirements verification tools

What You’ll Get

• Ownership – Lead end-to-end spacecraft integration and test, owning flight readiness for mission-critical hardware and software.
• Innovation – Advance I&T methods through automation, improved test workflows, and smarter use of EGSE/MGSE.
• Impact – Directly influence spacecraft reliability and mission success by validating the systems that fly.
• Growth – Expand your technical and leadership reach while guiding technicians and collaborating across engineering teams.
• Compensation – Competitive salary, equity, and comprehensive benefits, including medical, dental, vision, generous leave, HSA, 401(k) matching, and equity sharing.

Additional Requirements

To comply with U.S. Government space technology export regulations, including ITAR, applicants must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident, protected individual per 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
