Propulsion Expert Auckland, New Zealand Location Competitive Salary and relocation assistance About Rocket Lab For most people the idea of a rocket launch brings up images from the Apollo era monstrous booster engines, groundshaking noise, and a behemoth of a machine slowly climbing against the grasp of Earths gravity. This iconic image, the one that transformed us into a spacegoing species, captures the power and strength of rockets. But it is not the image that will make space a commercial reality. Replace this image with the bustle of a high speed assembly line, where rocket boosters feed off a conveyor belt connecting to preencapsulated payload stages, rolling out on to the launch pad one after the other. This image, by contrast, is about speed and efficiency and what the Rocket Lab Electron orbital project is all about. Rocket Lab has created a legacy of excellence by developing innovative solutions to ambitious aerospace problems for the likes of DARPA and other technically demanding customers. Now fully funded by major Silicon Valley venture capital funds, Rocket Lab is focused on redefining how the world accesses space by building Electron a revolutionary launch system designed to meet the launch requirements of the rapidly expanding small satellite market. Known in the industry for rapidly developing cost effective solutions from the ground up, Rocket Lab believes in giving highly skilled engineers ownership of complex aerospace systems from start to finish. This ethos offers engineers the satisfaction of moving from the conceptualization and design phase through to hands on work building, testing and ultimately flying their creations. Rocket Lab also offers a unique opportunity for the worlds best and brightest engineers to work with a young team passionate about what they are doing while also enjoying the high standard of living New Zealand has to offer. About the Role You will play a defining part in making low cost and high frequency rocket launches a reality, through your role as Rocket Labs Propulsion Expert dedicated to working on the high performance development of the Rutherford Rocket Engine. The engine named Rutherford after the famous New Zealand scientist Ernest Rutherford, it is a LoxKerosene regenerative cooled pump fed engine that is the workhorse for Rocket Labs orbital launcher program. Your extensive knowledge and experience will be called upon for thrust chamber optimization which includes regenerative and film cooling, nozzle geometry, thermal and mechanical performance. There will also be a major focus on injector optimization including injector layouts and patterns, Cefficiency and mechanical properties. You will work closely with other engineers and influence the design of the engine to improve performance, reliability, flight worthiness and manufacturing. Role Requirements A degree in Aerospace, Mechanical or Mechatronics engineering or equivalent 10 years industry experience Experienced in liquid rocket engine design, build and testing A proven track record in thrust chamber design and optimization and injector design and optimisation Proven experience in making critical development decisions Proven experience working to deadlines in a high pressure environment. Proven communication skills and the ability to build strong working relationships with manufacturing and engineering professionals. A methodical, careful and tidy work ethic Assistance with relocation and obtaining work visas will be provided to the successful applicant. To apply please email your CV and cover letter to careersrocketlab.co.nz
