Systems / Mechanical Engineer with Program Management

Our client is a pioneering deep-space resource extraction company developing the technology and mission architecture to mine helium-3 from the lunar surface and return it to Earth for use in fusion energy and quantum computing applications. This is foundational work at one of the most consequential intersections of space exploration, clean energy and advanced computing, and the team is building the engineering foundation to make it commercially viable.

They are hiring their Technical Program Lead: a rare individual who combines deep engineering discipline (mechanical or systems) with demonstrated experience managing complex, multidisciplinary programs and leading technical teams. This is not a pure individual-contributor role, nor a purely managerial one. You will bring hands-on technical credibility and the organizational ability to drive a program from concept through execution in an early-stage, high-ambiguity environment.
