We are seeking a Propulsion Engineering Technician to join our advanced propulsion engineering team. You will be part of a small, high-performance group responsible for designing, building, and executing propulsion system tests that push the limits of autonomous aircraft capability. This role demands initiative, technical rigor, and the ability to define and execute test procedures for systems that have never been tested before.

Design, fabricate, assemble, and maintain custom test setups, fixtures, and instrumentation for engine and propulsion system validation.

Develop and execute test plans for experimental propulsion systems and components in collaboration with engineering.

Define and document test procedures and work instructions for new tests in environments with little or no precedent.

Fabricate mechanical and electrical test hardware using composites, machined parts, 3D printing, adhesives, and aerospace-grade fasteners.

Conduct and monitor propulsion system tests, including piston engine/propeller tests.

Operate and maintain instrumentation, data acquisition systems, and specialized calibration tools.

Support avionics integration, wire harness fabrication, and system-level electrical testing.

Analyze test data, document findings, and provide feedback to engineering teams to improve designs and testing methodologies.

Work closely with propulsion, mechanical, aerospace, structural, manufacturing, software, and electrical engineering teams to support R&D testing.

Execute cross-functional test campaigns when other teams’ hardware or software integrates with propulsion systems.

Ensure discipline, accuracy, and repeatability in all test results and reports.
