Mechanical&Thermal - Lead Thermal Engineer

Orbital Paradigm

At Orbital Paradigm, we design, develop, manufacture, and operate reusable orbital logistics systems. Our spacecraft perform multiple orbital mission profiles and return safely to Earth through hypersonic atmospheric reentry and landing with pinpoint accuracy for rapid refurbishment and reuse.

Role Description

We are looking for a Lead Thermal Engineer to establish and lead the thermal engineering function at Orbital Paradigm and take ownership of the thermal design, analysis, verification, and qualification of our reusable orbital logistics vehicles.

The role covers spacecraft and subsystem thermal architecture, thermal control hardware, thermal modelling, environmental analysis, test planning, model correlation, and qualification support. The Lead Thermal Engineer will work closely with the rest of the engineering team to ensure the vehicle is thermally well suited and robust across orbital operations, reentry, landing, refurbish...
