Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
The engineer will design avionics enclosures and mounting solutions while collaborating with cross-disciplinary teams to support the development of flight-critical space station systems. Responsibilities include performing thermal and structural analyses, managing product configuration, and validating requirements through rigorous testing and hardware builds.
Candidates must possess a Bachelor of Science degree in mechanical or aerospace engineering and at least 5 years of experience with electronics packaging in extreme environments. Proficiency in 3D CAD software and GD&T implementation is required, along with the ability to work in a dynamic, hardware-rich environment.
Vast is developing next-generation space stations and space infrastructure using an incremental, hardware-rich, and low-cost approach. Vast is rapidly developing its multi-module Haven Station 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. 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 in 2027, followed by additional Haven modules. Additionally, the company recently announced Vast Satellite, a high-power satellite product line leveraging its space station components and the heritage of Haven Demo.
Headquartered in Long Beach, California, and with more than 1,000 employees and over a billion dollars in private capital, Vast has built the facilities required to manufacture and operate America’s next space station. The company plans to develop future habitats and systems for the Moon and Mars, dedicated space stations for government partners, and other crewed systems that will unlock the expanding long-term space economy.
Vast is looking for a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer, Avionics, reporting to the Senior Manager of Mechanical Engineering, Avionics, to support the development of the Avionics, RF, Power, or GNC systems for the design and build of human-rated space stations.
This will be a full-time, exempt position located in our Long Beach location.
We calibrate level and compensation to the selected candidate's experience and demonstrated capability. We welcome applicants across a range of experience levels to apply.
COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS
Base salary will vary depending on job-related knowledge, education, skills, experience, business needs, and market demand. Salary is just one component of our comprehensive compensation package.
