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 orbital missions, ushering in a new era defined by unprecedented agility and boundless opportunity.

Joining the propulsion team, you will be responsible for the design and analysis of the propulsion system and subsystems of a cutting-edge orbital demonstrator. You will directly collaborate with the team lead, your colleagues as well as other teams to conduct trade-off studies, develop your models and build the system architecture of the propulsion system.

First Missions

• Understanding the current propulsion system architecture.
• Implementing analytical/numerical models of the propulsion system.
• Designing and hot-fire testing the first iteration of our chemical propulsion system.

Responsibilities

• Analysing propulsion system requirements and verifying compliance.
• Defining detailed requirements for fluid subsystems and components.
• Writing specifications for partners and subcontractors.
• Planning the development cycles of the subsystem and components.
• Conducting design trade-offs and design reviews.
• Interfacing with other engineering teams.
• Generating test plans, supervising development test activities, and analysing test results.
• Producing and maintaining design documentation.
