Mechanical Engineer

Space assets and services are not fully monetized. At Revolv Space, we are solving the problem of low duty cycles by developing and manufacturing the next generation of critical subsystems enabling continuous spacecraft operations and therefore full monetization of space assets. We start with tackling the power limitations of small satellites by providing best‑in‑class products for small satellites: Solar Array Drive Assemblies, solar arrays and deployment mechanisms. We are seeking a mechanical and mechanism designer to fill the role of Mechanical Engineer at Revolv Space.
