## About the role

Muon seeks a Mechanical Engineer II to design and build hardware for our spacecraft platforms. Working alongside the group's senior and staff engineers, you'll take real ownership of components and assemblies: designing them, releasing them, prototyping them, and proving them out in test. This is a hands-on design role with a fast build-test-learn loop. You'll see your hardware go from CAD to flight, and you'll help carry designs from first prototypes through constellation-quantity production. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- 5+ years of experience designing, building, and testing high-reliability hardware
- B.S. or higher in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field
- Proficiency in CAD (SolidWorks preferred) for medium-to-large assembly design
- Working proficiency with engineering drawings and GD&T, familiarity with BOMs, FAIs, and tolerance/mass budgets
- Experience with ECO/DCO processes and PLM systems
- Experience contributing to the design of electromechanical systems
