E-Space is seeking a Senior Materials Engineer to develop and qualify material solutions for spacecraft components as part of their innovative low Earth orbit (LEO) communication systems. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience in material selection and process development, focusing on flexible materials and their impact on system performance

Job Summary

  • We are building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system that will fundamentally change the design, economics, manufacturing and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.
  • You will own the material selection, process development, and testing pipeline — from rapid vendor prototyping through environmental qualification — for polymer and flexible component architectures.
  • This is a role for someone who doesn't just understand materials in the abstract but has deep intuition for how material choices and process parameters affect system-level performance in thin constructions — foils, vapor-deposited films, adhesive layers, and flexible laminates.
