Jobs at Benchmark Space Systems

Design, build, and test avionics, test fixtures, and test stands for in-space propulsion products. Responsibilities include creating test plans and procedures, managing assembly and testing schedules, identifying process improvements, documenting results, authoring test reports, and communicating project status. The intern will collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams in an on-site, fast-paced environment.

Design, implement, and validate guidance, navigation, and control algorithms for spacecraft propulsion systems. Own flight-code architecture, simulation, verification, and configuration management; perform stability and dispersion analyses; define hardware-in-the-loop test campaigns; support mission design reviews; and mentor engineers. The role requires expertise in spacecraft dynamics, orbital mechanics, control theory, MATLAB/Simulink, and flight-software validation.

Design, analyze, manufacture, and test propulsion hardware and test articles for small satellites. Perform mechanical, thermal, fluidic, and chemical analyses; conduct laboratory, hotfire, and hardware testing; interpret results; support sourcing and manufacturing; and document and present engineering findings.

As a Test Mechatronics Engineer, you will design, build, and test propulsion products, develop testing systems, and collaborate with cross-functional teams.

Own spacecraft propulsion systems through requirements definition, design, fabrication, testing, qualification, and flight. Perform fluid, thermal, thermodynamic, and structural analyses; develop test plans; support prototype hardware, fabrication, and R&D. Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, production, test, and external stakeholders. The role requires aerospace fluid systems experience, CAD proficiency, GD&T knowledge, and familiarity with propulsion components, plumbing, and instrumentation.
