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 Working closely with other members of the GNC team you will work to design, analyze and implement attitude control systems for Rocket Labs Electron launch vehicle. You will have a solid understanding of bending vibrations, slosh analysis and aerodynamics as they apply to attitude control systems and experience in designing and implementing robust control on an existing launch vehicle. Minimum Requirements A Bachelors or Masters degree in AerospaceElectricalMechanical Engineering or Physics or equivalent qualification Experience implementing launch vehicle control The ability to work effectively as part of a team as well as autonomously Proven communication skills and the ability to build strong working relationships Strong experience working to tight deadlines within a pressurized environment Desirable Skills C Simulink MATLAB
