CAD Design Engineer -Thermal Protection Systems

Here at The Exploration Company, we are developing, producing, and operating Nyx, a modular and reusable space orbital vehicle that can eventually be refuelled in orbit and that can carry cargo - and potentially humans in the longer run. We are looking for a CAD Design Engineer with a strong focus on Thermal Protection Systems (TPS) who will also actively support spacecraft structure design activities. The role covers preliminary to detailed design, with an emphasis on TPS - structure integration and overall vehicle coherence. 🛠️ Key Responsibilities: Contribute to the CAD design of the Thermal Protection System (TPS) using Siemens NX, from early architectural concepts to detailed definition. Support the CAD design and maturation of primary and secondary spacecraft structures, in close connection with TPS needs and constraints. Define and model TPS elements and ensure their structural integration with the vehicle. Contribute to the definition and maturation of the overall vehicle physical architecture, including aeroshape, structure, and subsystem accommodation. Iterate and mature CAD models based on thermo-mechanical analysis loops, structural analyses, material trade-offs, and s
