Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Lead the mechanical development of interceptor hardware from architecture through prototype manufacturing, integration, and field testing. You will own complex mechanical systems and provide technical direction to the engineering team while resolving cross-functional manufacturing and assembly issues.
Requires a bachelor's degree in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering and at least five years of professional experience in rocketry, missiles, or propulsion. Candidates must demonstrate strong mechanical design capabilities and the ability to work directly with hardware in demanding field conditions.
GITAI is a vertically integrated space and defense company building the next generation of hardware for low-Earth-orbit missions.
At our core is the space robotics technology that has defined GITAI from the beginning. A small, highly capable engineering team applies that foundation across satellite buses, in-orbit servicing robotics, and mission hardware for applications such as Earth observation. Today, a major focus of our work is supporting U.S. national security missions, particularly through proliferated LEO satellite constellations and other next-generation space systems.
We design, build, integrate, and test much of our hardware in-house. Electrical, mechanical, software, manufacturing, integration, and test teams work closely together, allowing a small team to own complete systems rather than isolated components. This vertical integration helps us move quickly, learn directly from hardware, and shorten the path from architecture to a working system.
We are still early. The systems, the company, and the market are all being built at the same time. Requirements change, technical problems are often ambiguous, and many answers do not yet exist. We are looking for exceptional engineers and operators who want broad ownership, can work across disciplines, and are willing to stay close to the hardware until the mission succeeds.
Lead the mechanical development of interceptor hardware from early architecture through prototype manufacturing, integration, field testing, and redesign.
You will own complex mechanical systems across vehicle structures, propulsion interfaces, avionics packaging, internal mechanisms, test hardware, and ground-support equipment. You will make critical design decisions, resolve cross-functional problems, and help the broader engineering team move faster through strong technical judgment and direct hands-on execution. This is a senior individual-contributor role. You do not need to be a people manager, but you will be expected to provide technical direction, review the work of other engineers, raise the quality of mechanical design, and step into difficult hardware problems when the team is blocked. This is not an analysis-heavy or propulsion-performance position. You will perform and review the calculations needed to support sound decisions, but the work remains grounded in hardware. Designs must be manufacturable, assemble correctly, survive their expected environment, and be ready for the next test.
The annual base salary range for this position is expected to be $155,000 to $200,000. Actual compensation and final level will be determined based on relevant experience, demonstrated mechanical-design capability, hands-on manufacturing and test experience, and other job-related factors. This position is also eligible for stock options and company benefits.
GITAI does not accept unsolicited resumes from staffing or recruiting agencies. We work only with recruiting partners that have been specifically engaged by GITAI. No fees will be paid for resumes submitted without a prior agreement.
Compensation may include base salary or hourly pay and, depending on the position, equity. Actual compensation will be determined based on experience, skillset, and other job-related factors.
Space Robotics Startup
GITAI is a space robotics startup aiming to provide safe and affordable means of labor in space. Our robotic products are the key to unlock a new era of Lunar and Matian development, constructing habitats, mining resources, and enabling humanity's expanstion beyond Earth. With proven technology demonstrated in space, we are building the robotic workforce that will transform the space operation - making space accessible, affordable, and sustainable for generations to come.
