Role Overview
In this role on the Canopy engineering team, you will own the end-to-end design and delivery of novel Thermal Protection Systems (TPS) solutions. You will work closely with the aerothermal, structures, and manufacturing teams to transition TPS concepts from simulation to physical, flight-ready hardware for platforms across space and hypersonics. You will join a small core team with combined experience managing nuclear weapons systems, starting companies, creating new materials, and flying things to space. To be successful in this role, you must be self-motivated, thrive in ambiguity, and be able to lead your own projects to completion.
