    Default job background
    Description

    Orbex is seeking a Senior Fluid Systems Engineer with significant experience of Pneumatic and Hydraulics for rocketry or space applications to join our growing team in Scotland.

    You will have significant responsibility in the Pneumatic and hydraulic system assembly, testing and
    integration as well as wider Launch vehicle assembly for Orbex Prime.

    Orbex is a leading micro-launch company with our Prime vehicle being prepared to launch from our home spaceport, Sutherland Spaceport.

    We are well placed to be one of the first operational micro-launch companies in Europe with over €85m of project financing secured, a number of customers signed up, our launch licence application submitted, and backing from organisations including UKSA and ESA.

    We are a rapidly growing company with staff located between our production and test facilities in Forres, Scotland and Copenhagen, Denmark.

    Working on cutting-edge advances in rocket fuel technology, Prime's carbon footprint is up to 96% lower than comparable vehicles, leading to innovations in propulsion and tank structures.

    A state-of-the-art re-flight system means we can recover and reuse our technology, and innovations in separation mechanisms mean we leave no debris in space.

    Having developed in-house production capability, we can 3D print complex engines, produce full-scale carbon composite fuel tanks, and have avionics and software testing labs in both Scotland and Denmark.

    Based in Forres, you will be right in the heart of this fast-paced cutting-edge company, gaining a unique insight into what it takes to build a new launch vehicle for a buoyant commercial market.

    Orbex is an Equal Opportunity Employer and is working towards a more diverse workforce in the aerospace industry.
    Drawing & modelling, parts and assemblies
    Pneumatic and hydraulic system assembly, testing and integration
    Development and validation testing of launch vehicle Ground Support Equipment (GSE)
    This role will require significant time working outdoors, regardless of weather.
    Experience of Mig and Tig welding techniques would be beneficial
    Cable harness positioning and installation would be beneficial
    Experience supporting testing campaigns related to rocketry such as hot fire testing campaigns, pre flight testing and validation.

    This role is based in Forres at Orbex's headquarters with significant time expected supporting our activities at RAF Kinloss, an outdoor test site nearby.

    If you enjoy adventurous outdoor pursuits in extraordinary natural environments, the coast and highlands around Forres offer an ideal location.

    Mountaineering, rock climbing, abseiling, hiking, mountain biking, cycling, camping, sailing, surfing, motorbiking and skiing are all within easy reach of our main UK factory, and many members of our team participate in adventure sports in the vast, beautiful settings of Sutherland.

    For the right candidate, we offer an excellent benefits package that includes:

    Competitive salary £45-60K

    Our roles need to be on-site in Scotland due to the nature of the position, export controls and security, but we are happy to sponsor visas for you and your family and provide relocation assistance as required which includes 1 month of initial accommodation in Scotland so that you can explore the local area.
