Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you've come to the right place!
E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system that will fundamentally change the design, economics, manufacturing and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.
We're intentional, we're unapologetically curious and we're 100% committed to innovate space-based communications and deliver actionable intelligence that will expand global economies, protect space and our planet and enhance our overall quality of life.
The E-Space Manufacturing team builds the world's most advanced aerospace products at high rate and high precision.
As a Senior Industrial Engineer, you'll own the layout and process flow of our Arlington factory as it scales - working across every production area, from antenna and bus assembly to spacecraft assembly & test and boom manufacturing. You'll design facility layouts in AutoCAD, model capacity and material flow, and plan the workstations, lines, and equipment installs that let us ramp to rate. This is a hands-on, high-visibility role for someone who has laid out and optimized real factories and wants to shape ours from the ground up. This position reports to the Manufacturing leadership team.
What you'll be doing:
-
Own the HQ factory layout - develop and maintain facility layouts in AutoCAD as production scales from prototype to rate.
-
Design end-to-end process and material flow across all production areas - antenna, bus assembly, spacecraft assembly & test, and boom manufacturing.
-
Model capacity, takt, and line balance to plan equipment, workstations, and headcount for each production line.
-
Plan and execute line moves, equipment installs, and facility readiness - footprint, utilities, safety clearances, and move-in logistics.
-
Design workstation layouts, ergonomics, and 5S standards with our manufacturing, automation, and controls engineers.
-
Optimize material flow from receiving to lineside - partnering with planning and shipping & receiving on warehouse and logistics.
-
Run time studies and use floor data to drive throughput, space-utilization, and cost improvements.
What you will bring to this role:
-
5+ years of industrial or manufacturing engineering experience in a complex production environment.
