About the Role

Beyond Reach Labs is designing and building the largest deployable structures for space infrastructure. As a Senior Development Test Engineer, you will lead the design, build, and operation of test infrastructure to prove out hardware, owning test strategy and execution from subassembly to full-scale deployment.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the design, fabrication, and instrumentation of test rigs and stands for deployable mechanisms, structural test articles, and motor/actuator hardware.
  • Architect data acquisition (DAQ) systems, including sensor selection, signal conditioning, and instrumentation layout, and set standards for the team.
  • Produce and review fabrication drawings, wiring schematics, and instrumentation lists for test equipment.
  • Drive streamlining and automation of testing for acceptance testing and long-term production.
  • Shape BRL’s longer-term test capability roadmap.
  • Lead test systems and campaigns across development, acceptance, and qualification testing.
  • Serve as test director and lead test readiness reviews.
  • Stay hands-on with test campaigns, including test article integration, activation, execution, and troubleshooting.
  • Guide other engineers and technicians through test campaigns.
  • Reduce and review test data.
  • Lead anomaly investigations and root cause analysis with design engineers.
  • Synthesize test results and performance trends into recommendations for design and manufacturing.
  • Develop, write, and approve acceptance test procedures (ATPs) and qualification test plans.
  • Own qualification approaches and acceptance testing methods, including test levels, margins, and verification methods.
  • Establish and maintain configuration control of test procedures, test data, and as-run documentation.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in a hands-on engineering role designing, fabricating, or operating test hardware, DAQ systems, or test rigs.
  • Direct experience testing spaceflight hardware through development, acceptance, and qualification testing.
  • Experience leading test campaigns end to end, including authoring acceptance and qualification test documentation.
  • Strong working knowledge of instrumentation and data acquisition fundamentals (sensors, signal conditioning, sampling).
  • Demonstrated ability to take technical ownership and lead in small teams.
  • Willingness to work extended hours and weekends as necessary to support critical project milestones.
  • Must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident, or eligible for authorization under U.S. export regulations.
