ABOUT ROCKET LAB Rocket Lab is a global leader in launch and space systems. The rockets and satellites we build and launch enable some of the most ambitious and vital space missions globally, supporting scientific exploration, Earth observation and missions to combat climate change, national security, and exciting new technology demonstrations. Our Electron rocket has provided reliable access to orbit since 2018, becoming one of the most frequently launched rockets in the world.

Neutron will be our next rocket on the launch pad, an advanced 13-tonne payload class, reusable rocket to launch the mega constellations of the future. Our space systems business includes our extensive line of satellites and components that have enabled more than 1,700 missions including the James Webb Space Telescope, NASA Psyche Mission, Artemis I, Mars Ingenuity helicopter, and more. Join our pioneering team and launch your career to new heights! NEUTRON Rocket Lab's Neutron team is responsible for bringing our new large rocket Neutron and its launch and test sites to life.

From designing and testing Neutron's structures and components, to firing up its new Archimedes engines, to setting up Neutron's launch pads and test sites across the United States, joining the Neutron team is your opportunity to help launch a new large rocket for the very first time. SYSTEMS ENGINEER - MECHANICAL AND FLUID As a Systems Engineer, you will deliver cross functional support to teams to align Neutron's mechanical and fluid system designs with the program's strategy; requirements; operations and technical maturity phases. This role is based in Auckland, New Zealand.

Systems Engineers are strong communicators, who combine expertise in technical assessment to optimise system performance, and possess a depth of knowledge to be able to define process excellence for the project. Successful candidates will thrive in ambiguity, and are excited to work in a small, high performing team focused on continued learning and growth. This position is ideal for a multidisciplinary engineer keen to hit the ground running in support of a complex project from critical design through to integration and launch.

Join a driven team that's tackling challenging projects, delivering on exciting missions, and making an impact on the future of space! WHAT YOU'LL GET TO DO: Drive cross-functional teams to ensure that mechanical components and fluid systems integrate seamlessly into an overall vehicle architecture that is capable of the project's objectives. Work closely with design teams to verify requirements through analysis and test, ensuring that verification artefacts are documented and linked to requirements. Contribute to the evaluation of technical program decisions such as taking the lead on design studies and identifying opportunities for improvement.

Communicate internally and externally on the product status. Proactively identify and solve technical challenges to allow projects to proceed at pace. Define.
