Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Integrate and test the payload bay of the Tumbleweed Rover prototype to ensure compatibility with scientific instruments. Perform environmental tests and document results through papers and conference presentations.
Requires a degree in Aerospace, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field with basic proficiency in mechanical integration. Candidates must be able to commit 15 hours per week for at least 1.5 years and be located near Delft.
Associated Supervisor: Head of Science
Location: Delft, The Netherlands
About the position: We are seeking a motivated Payload Engineer to join our multidisciplinary team and contribute directly to the development of the Science Testbed (a Tumbleweed prototype) . In this role, you will focus on the integration and testing of the payload bay, ensuring that the rover can accommodate scientific instruments reliably for planetary exploration missions. You will gain hands-on experience working with a cutting-edge prototype and collaborate closely with other engineering teams, scientists, and external partners. These tests will build up to a Martian Analogous test.
Close proximity to Delft, as this position requires regular on-site involvement.
Strong communication and intercultural skills for collaboration with internal teams and external partners.
Excellent written and spoken English.
Basic proficiency in mechanical integration and familiarity with tools used for assembly and testing.
Willingness to engage in continuous learning and personal development in both engineering and planetary science fields.
Familiarity with Python or MATLAB for data analysis during payload testing is a plus.
Graduated or enrolled in a Bachelor’s or higher degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
Expected commitment of at least 1.5 years and approximately 15 hours per week.
Integrate and test the payload bay of the Tumbleweed Rover prototype, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility with scientific instruments.
Perform environmental and functional tests on the payload bay to validate instrument performance under simulated mission conditions (e.g., vibration, temperature).
Oversee operational activities during testbed experiments, including setup, execution, and transportation.
Coordinate with external partners on instrumentation installation.
Write papers outlining the results of the numerous tests for publication.
Present findings at relevant conferences.

Making space exploration faster, cheaper, and more efficient.
At Tumbleweed Mars, we want to make deep space accessible for everyone, including space agencies, research institutions, companies, and space enthusiasts worldwide. Our interdisciplinary and international team is building the next generation of Mars rovers - cheaper, faster, more reliable. Tumbleweed Mars bio-inspired mission architecture is based on a swarm of wind-driven, lightweight, and spheroid rovers that will enable large-scale exploration of the Red Planet. We aim to bring down the cost of Mars data by 100x, significantly reduce the risk of missions, and cover a surface area per mission 107 times higher than all past missions combined. With this pioneering approach, Tumbleweed Mars is paving the road to a new, Martian economy.
