Work as a satellite systems engineer across satellite design, development, testing, and operations, helping build communications infrastructure and direct-to-device connectivity.
About this role
The role focuses on designing propulsion systems for the ZERO rocket, including engines, turbopumps, and other propulsion subsystems. Responsibilities include defining system requirements, developing the overall architecture, and designing feed systems, fluid networks, and propulsion-system piping and equipment integration.
The position covers sizing analysis, fluid and thermal simulation, and performance optimization. It also involves planning combustion tests and turbopump hot-run tests, providing technical support, and analyzing test data using the company’s internal test facilities. Test results are used to improve and optimize the system.
The architect leads system verification and coordinates interfaces with colleagues responsible for structural, electrical, and guidance and control systems. The role also includes root-cause analysis of failures and planning and implementing corrective actions.
Additional technical studies will cover missions and vehicles from ZERO No. 2 onward, as well as DECA. The work location is the company’s Tokyo Second Branch in Koto-ku, Tokyo.
