Galaxy Technology Hires LLC is looking for a Harness Engineering Manager to oversee the mechanical design and qualification of cable harnesses for their client's space vehicle and support systems, with the ultimate goal of enabling manufacturing and habitation in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) through artificial gravity space stations.
Requirements
- Experience with CAD and harness design software such as Zuken E3 for harness drawings.
- Hands-on experience with wire harness 3D design, wire harness installation drawings and formboard creation, wiring diagrams, 3D modeling of complex top-level assemblies, and installing and troubleshooting harnessing for aerospace applications.
- Experience designing harnesses to IPC/WHMA-A-620, IPC/WHMA-A-620-S, and NASA-STD-8739.4
- Owned wire harness analysis, testing, and qualification processes for a full spacecraft or subsystem.
- Performed analysis and physical testing of harnessing with respect to thermal, loads, vibration and shock to ensure full qualification for flight.
- Has hands-on experience with harness manufacturing and integration: fabricating harnesses, performing connector mates, routing harnesses, and performing electrical tests.
- Competence with electrical test equipment (multimeters, oscilloscopes, network analyzers, power supplies, etc.)
Responsibilities
- Recruit and empower a high-performing team of engineers to develop flight harnesses within a 3D NX CAD environment, from initial requirements to vehicle installation.
- Implement and verify that the team follows the standards, processes, and tools for the harnessing discipline.
