Test Site Technician
16 hours ago
At Orbex we are looking for a Test Site Technician to join our growing team in Copenhagen. With us, you will have the opportunity to support rocket engine and turbopump testing campaigns, production for propulsion systems and most of all, you will directly contribute to the maiden launch of Orbex Prime
It would be desirable that the applicant have a general mechanical flair, experience and knowledge with advanced pipe systems. You will be providing operational support to test campaigns and related production activities.
The system is highly complex and will require safety critical attention & documentation, and we will provide you with comprehensive training to ensure your success.
Orbex is a leading micro-launch company with our Prime vehicle being prepared to launch from our home spaceport, Space Hub Sutherland. We are well placed to be one of the first operational micro-launch companies in Europe with over €122m/£103m of project financing secured, a number of customers signed up, 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 on orbit.
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 Copenhagen, you will be right in the heart of this fast-paced cutting-edge company, using your skills 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.
