You will create detailed designs for hypergolic propellant feed systems, GSE, fluid system plumbing, structural hardware, and supporting facility systems — then see those designs through fabrication, installation, and commissioning. Working with highly toxic and reactive propellants demands an uncompromising approach to design rigor and safety, and you will help design the systems that meet that standard for the facility. This is a builder's role: you will leave a lasting mark on a test capability that will power True Anomaly's propulsion programs for years to come. RESPONSIBILITIES Hypergolic System Design Lead the detailed mechanical design of hypergolic propellant feed systems, including propellant storage vessels, transfer lines, fill and drain assemblies, valve configurations, and pressurization circuits for a new test stand. Select fluid system components and assemblies compatible with hypergolic propellants (NTO, MMH, UDMH, or similar), including sizing, material selection, seal compatibility, leak containment, and pressure ratings. Develop and own P&IDs for hypergolic propellant and pressurant systems; ensure designs incorporate appropriate redundancy, isolation, and emergency safing capabilities. Design propellant offload, storage, and transfer infrastructure including secondary containment, vent and drain routing, and neutralization…
