Chemical Engineer (Solid Propellants)

Chemical EngineerWe are looking for a Chemical Engineer to develop and improve the propellants and laboratory capability behind our solid rocket propulsion systems. You will combine practical laboratory work with engineering judgement, working on formulation, preparation, characterisation, incoming-material inspection, and the scale-up of propellant solutions from laboratory experiments to propulsion hardware. About usWe’re a Germany-based rocketry startup currently in stealth mode, scaling up rapidly to meet the demand for high-performance, reliable, and scalable solid propulsion technologies for space and defense applications. We are already launching suborbital and ballistic rockets on a regular basis, generating significant revenue and applying our knowledge toward the development of an orbital rocket. We are working hard to build something truly spectacular. To thrive here you will need to be comfortable working at pace, with the autonomy to make decisions and execute on them quickly. If you’re excited by hard technical challenges and want a role where you will make a real difference each day to the future of the company, we may be the place for you. Key responsibilitiesDevelop, formulate, prepare, and improve solid propellants for different propulsion requirements. Plan and conduct laboratory experiments, characterise materials, and document results clearly. Work with propulsion engineers to connect formulation, processing, material properties, and motor performa
