Description

Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you’ve come to the right place!

E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of space-powered Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are fundamentally changing the design, economics, manufacturing, coverage limitations and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.

By building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system—with a unique antenna design, highly sustainable spacecraft system and low-cost, small portable end-user devices—we can extend global satellite coverage, capacity and connectivity beyond legacy space services to provide a new kind of IoT platform that lets users sense, track, connect and act on information gathered, anywhere.

We’re intentional, we’re unapologetically curious and we’re 100% committed to saving space, protecting our planet and turning connectivity into actionable intelligence.

We are looking for a Senior Structures Analyst to own the structural analysis backbone of E-Space's Integrated Antenna Structure team. This person will develop and maintain the integrated finite element model of the deployed antenna assembly, perform structural performance and dynamics analysis, and establish requirements flow-down from system-level to component-level structural margins. This is a senior individual contributor role for someone with strong eigenvalue instincts, comfort with nonlinear and large-displacement problems, and opinions on what a deployable structure FEM is actually good for and where it breaks down.

On-site in Texas preferred, California as alternate. Close proximity to hardware and test activities is important for this role.
