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 As a flight safety engineer at Rocket Lab you will be an integral part of the launch range team. You will be responsible for quantifying the safety of the launch vehicle trajectory and failure modes to ensure the safe launch of the vehicle. The role will require you to have input on the full spectrum of safety tasks from implementing appropriate models for vehicle failures and risks to guiding the development of the vehicle and being on hand for day of launch activities. You will also be expected to coordinate with the appropriate local and international authorities to ensure compliance with established regulations and secure necessary launch permits. Your success in this role will ensure Electron is the safest and most reliable rocket in the world. Mimimum Requirements Bachelors degree in AerospaceElectricalMechanical Engineering or Physics or equivalent Candidates must have at least 3 years of flight safety experience in the aerospace field Experience with Python or MATLAB Launch Vehicle trajectory design experience The ability to work under pressure and to tight deadlines Proven communication skills and the ability to build strong working relationships Desirable Skills Masters degree in AerospaceElectricalMechanical Engineering or Physics or equivalent Experience with orbital dynamics andor Guidance, Navigation and Controls CC In linux To apply please email your CV and cover letter to careersrocketlab.co.nz
