Mechanical Design Engineer

At Dark, we passionately believe that space represents not only a cornerstone of the modern world but also a catalyst for shaping our future.

Our mission is clear : to safeguard this invaluable realm by pioneering spacecraft and mission designs for the protection of vital orbits and assets.

That is why we are gathering a team of bright minds to tackle crucial challenges through advanced engineering. Our focus?

Velocity. We are kicking in technologies that will enable faster than ever before orbital missions, ushering in a new era defined by unprecedented agility and boundless opportunity.

Within the mechanical engineering team, you will work as a mechanical design engineer on the development of a cutting-edge orbital demonstrator.

You will directly collaborate with the mechanical architect, the structural engineers and the other design engineers to conduct trade-off studies, contribute to hardware development and manage manufacturing operations.

First Missions

• Getting up to speed with the current spacecraft architecture and the past mechanical activities
• Specify, design, manufacture and support development tests of the first iteration of the spacecraft structure

Responsibilities

• Contributing to the definition of internal mechanical design standards, processes, and tools
• Designing ground or space-bound hardware using CAD, industry best practices, and basic hand calculations
• Performing trade-offs on material selection, manufacturing methods, sealing and fastening solutions, etc.
• Conducting design reviews and writing technical documentation
• Exchanging with subcontractors and partners for manufacturing and procurement of components and subsystems
• Interfacing with the structural analysts, the test team, and the propulsion team to conduct structural tests and iterate solutions
• Participating in and supporting test activities
• Documenting your work in a clear manner to inform future developments

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience in an industrial multi-disciplinary project, covering all phases of the product life cycle
• Expertise in mechanical engineering
• Proficient user of PLM software and CAD packages (ideally CATIA)
• Applied industrial knowledge of design for manufacturing and assembly (trade-offs on materials, manufacturing processes, sealing and fastening solutions, etc.)
• Being able to work in a highly iterative environment during early design phases
• Hands-on experience with highly technical systems (launchers, spacecrafts, aircrafts, cars, military equipment, etc.) is a plus
• As we have an international team, knowledge of technical English is required. Fluency in French is a plus

Culture

We recognise that extraordinary work ethics turn mere achievements into triumphs. Hence, we hold each team member accountable for enhancing collaborative performance within Dark by embodying the following skill set :

• Methodology Your ability to clearly define and articulate the steps required to achieve a desired outcome
• Relevancy Your capacity to discern and select the most appropriate course of action based on the prevailing context and circumstances
• Results Consistently obtaining and updating the necessary resources and information to drive towards the intended outcome effectively

Benefits

• Join - our core team, poised to expand into a company with hundreds.
• Engage - in a deeply technical project with high level systems trade-off and long term industrial vision.
• Learn - every day in an environment driven by continuous improvement.
• Enjoy - a team rewarding autonomy and uphold high standard at work.
• Receive - a high competitive salary and bonuses.
