About the Role

The Senior Propulsion Engineer is responsible for driving the development, design, manufacturing, and testing of rocket propulsion subsystems. In this role you will sit at the intersection of technical leadership and project management — mentoring junior engineers, guiding system engineering decisions, and delivering complex propulsion programmes from concept through qualification.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop and test rocket propulsion systems, applying thermodynamic, fluid dynamic and structural principles across the full engineering cycle from concept through performance validation.
• Lead propulsion projects at system engineering level, managing technical interfaces, design reviews and verification activities to ensure milestones are delivered on time and within budget.
• Define system requirements and maintain technical baseline documentation, ensuring configuration control throu...
