About the role

Apex Space, Inc. is seeking a Lead Propulsion Integration Engineer to own propulsion modules on our spacecraft, from requirements through design, integration, servicing, and launch. You will lead the propulsion integration team, define architecture, and ensure flight-ready modules meet mass, cost, and power budgets. You will work across systems, structures, thermal, avionics, power, and program management, driving manufacturing and testing readiness while maintaining safety and range compliance.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
