The Senior CMF Designer will lead the development of optimized materials, colors, and finishes for human-rated space stations, ensuring compliance with safety and certification standards. They will manage the end-to-end CMF process, including vendor collaboration, material testing, and cross-functional coordination to support program milestones.
Candidates must hold a bachelor's degree in Industrial Design, Transportation Design, or Material Science and possess at least 6 years of professional CMF design experience. A proven track record of leading CMF strategy on complex, highly engineered products is required.
At Vast, our mission is to contribute to a future where billions of people are living and thriving in space. Vast is developing next-generation space stations to ensure a continuous human presence in space for America and its allies, enabling advanced microgravity research and manufacturing, and unlocking a new space economy for government, corporate, and private customers. Using an incremental, hardware-rich and low-cost approach, Vast is rapidly developing its multi-module Haven Station. Haven Demo’s 2025 success made Vast the only operational commercial space station company to fly and operate its own spacecraft. Next, Haven-1 is expected to become the world’s first commercial space station when it launches, followed by additional Haven modules to enable permanent human presence by 2030. Our team is all-in, committed to executing our mission safely and on time. If you want to work with the most talented people on Earth furthering space exploration for humanity, come join us.
Vast is looking for a Senior Color, Material, and Finish Designer, reporting to the Senior Manager, Industrial Design, to lead and own the development of optimized materials, colors, and details that will be required for the design and build of artificial-gravity human-rated space stations.
You will be working closely with industrial designers, material engineers, soft good technicians and supply chain to define the experience of our astronauts onboard our space stations such as eating, sleeping, exercise and more via cutting edge materials. You will own every aspect of the CMF design process end-to-end. This includes spaceflight material heritage research, vendor collaboration, mood board creation and visual strategy, ground up material testing and development, and final material production.
This will be a full-time, exempt position located in our Long Beach location.
