iRocket is building the future of reusable launch via advanced manufacturing. We seek an Additive Manufacturing Engineer to lead the design, process development, and qualification of additively-manufactured rocket hardware.
The Role
- Develop, qualify, and produce additive-manufactured (AM) metal parts for propulsion, structures, and subsystems
- Optimize AM designs: design for additive manufacturing (DfAM), thermal-mechanical analysis, post-process workflows, non-destructive inspection, and certification
- Collaborate with materials, structures, manufacturing, and design teams to reduce cost, lead time, and improve performance
- Set process controls, parameter development, build-book documentation, qualification plans, and manufacturing readiness
- Drive iterative improvements, material science evaluations, cost-down strategies, and supply-chain integration
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Materials, Mechanical, or Aerospace Engineering
- 2+ years of experience in metal additive manufacturing, preferably in aerospace, defense, or complex systems manufacturing
- Experience with DfAM, CAD/CAE, thermal/structural analysis, post-processing, inspection, and qualification workflows
- Familiarity with powder-bed fusion, directed-energy deposition, hot isostatic pressing (HIP), heat treatments, and AM part certification
- Excellent teamwork, documentation, and process-improvement mindset
Benefits
- Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)
