Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs in Denver & Boulder, CO

Design, implement, and test guidance, navigation, and flight control algorithms for lunar spacecraft. Develop control laws, perform trade studies and stability analyses, implement algorithms in simulations and flight software (SIL/HIL), collaborate with propulsion/structures teams, and support reviews with data and reports. Maintain software and tools for automated requirement, configuration, and performance analyses.

Lead development of autonomous onboard deep-space navigation for cislunar and interplanetary missions. Define architecture, integrate optical and radiometric measurement processing, support ground-based orbit determination, mentor navigation engineers, and drive roadmap from concept through flight while collaborating with GNC, avionics, flight software, and operations.

Design and manage propulsion and fluid systems for lunar lander hardware: generate CAD and MBD for tube assemblies, release drawings, lead configuration management, coordinate interfaces, drive manufacturability, and perform basic structural analysis for flight and test articles.

Design, develop, test, and qualify fluid systems for the New Glenn second stage. Lead component and subsystem design, thermo-fluid modeling, FEA, manufacturing integration, and test execution. Coordinate suppliers, test stands, instrumentation, and risk mitigation to support development, qualification, and mission operations for high-pressure, cryogenic rocket hardware.

Lead design, delivery, and commissioning of production-ready automated manufacturing systems. Define requirements with customers, develop simulations and cost/time models, drive conceptual and detailed designs, manage project scope/schedule/budget, support procurement, and collaborate with engineering teams to deploy scalable automation.

Lead mechanical design and delivery of custom automated manufacturing equipment from concept through commissioning. Design robotic end-of-arm tooling, material handling, fixtures, frames, safety guarding, and production cells; apply mechanics and kinematics, integrate mechanical/electrical/pneumatic systems, troubleshoot during installation, and produce documentation, BOMs, and assembly procedures.

Design, build, and deploy custom factory automation systems across the full lifecycle. Responsibilities include controls architecture, PLC/HMI programming, robot and equipment integration, offline simulation, electrical and safety design, on-site commissioning, testing, and creating controls documentation for automated manufacturing systems.

Design, build, and commission factory automation systems: define controls architectures, program PLCs/HMIs, integrate robots and peripheral equipment, develop offline simulations, perform troubleshooting and commissioning, produce controls documentation, and support factory acceptance and startup.

Design, build, and commission automated manufacturing systems end-to-end. Define control architectures, program PLCs/HMIs/robots, perform virtual and onsite commissioning, integrate equipment, lead testing and acceptance, produce controls documentation, and coordinate cross-functional stakeholders to deliver scalable production systems.

Lead design, development, and lifecycle ownership of the EVA Suit Umbilical Interface Panel for a crewed lunar lander. Design, analyze, and test breathing gas, water, and vacuum fluid systems; integrate with multidisciplinary teams and NASA partners; produce documentation; coordinate manufacturability; support procurement, assembly, verification testing, and operations while ensuring safety and regulatory compliance.
