STOKE Space Technologies
A thriving economy in space is needed to make life on Earth more vibrant, sustainable, and equitable. Space technology will enable global access to information, solutions to climate change, answers to global food security, products that transform healthcare, clean energy production, and more. Today, rocket launch options are slow, expensive, and unreliable. Stoke is building the world’s most efficient fully and rapidly reusable rocket designed to fly daily that will radically increase access to space and open up the space economy to safeguard our precious home, Earth.
Description Fully reusable launch vehicles are the key to seamlessly connecting Earth and space. As a Staff structural engineer on this launch vehicle, you will provide technical leadership and help build engineering guidelines for the design of pressurized structures, primary structures, thrust structures, secondary structure and load path definition. You will also be a Responsible Engineer for significant sub-systems on our vehicles which will require owning a hardware project from requirements definition, through development, design, analysis, build, test, integration onto the vehicle, and flight. We are a small and motivated team, and you will need to work across disciplines with engineers and technicians to get the job done. You will have the opportunity to help build and test your own hardware so be ready to pick up a wrench and stand side by side with our fabrication team. This role will also provide mentorship to our younger team members and interns.
Qualifications
8 years minimum experience in working in aerospace primary structures
Designed, built and tested structures that have flown
Exceptional command of fundamentals
Demonstrated proficiency with CAD software (NX preferred) and analysis software (ANSYS preferred), should be able to talk to multiple examples of both
Ability to determine appropriate level of work for a problem (from hand calcs to multi-physics finite element solutions) and execute the work accordingly
Familiarity with launch vehicle design desired (cryogenic propellant familiarity preferred)
Experience with technical mentoring of junior engineers
Ability to lead
Ability to follow
Excellent written and verbal communication
Bachelor’s degree in engineering
Responsibilities
Define the structural design of the rocket in coordination with owners of other portions of the vehicle
Analyze structural components of the rocket and write margin summaries. You will have to help build and define load cases.
Procure and manage all hardware for components and structures that you own
Work side-by-side with manufacturing & test engineers to get your hardware built, tested and integrated onto the vehicle
Help build design tools and guidelines that will accelerate development of structural components
Track and disposition non-conformances for structural hardware
Manage the budget and schedule for the structural components that you own
Benefits
Medical, dental, vision and basic life insurance
401(k) match
Paid time off
Flexible scheduling

Compensation Target Levels:
Level 4 range: $144,100 - $240,100
Level 5 range: $168,100 - $312,200
Our job posts are intentionally written to attract a wide variety of experience levels, and we make decisions about the right fit on a per-candidate basis.
Your actual level and base salary will be decided based on your specific experience and skill level.
Equal Opportunity The Company is an Equal Opportunity Employer, including with respect to disability and veteran status. It is committed to compliance with all equal opportunity laws, including the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) and Title VII. It does not discriminate on the basis of nationality, race, citizenship, immigration status, or any other protected class when it comes to employment practices, including hiring.
Employment at the Company is contingent upon satisfactory completion of reference and backgroundchecks, and on your ability to prove your identity and authorization to work in the U.S. for the Company. Employees must comply with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services employment verification requirements, and, therefore, they must complete an Employment Eligibility Verification Form I-9 at the start of employment and re-verify authorization to work periodically.
Separate from this I-9 process, this position entails access to certain technology and technical data that is restricted under U.S. export control laws and regulations. Employment or continued employment may be conditioned on your legal authorization to work with or have access to export control materials as necessary to perform your job.
