We design and build the systems and hardware the lunar economy will come to depend on - rovers, power, and data networks for sustained operations on the Moon. We are focused on the problems that must be solved before the next chapter of human exploration can scale. The Moon does not forgive untested assumptions. The people who work here know that, and they wouldn't have it any other way.\nVenturi Astrolab, Inc. (Astrolab) is pioneering new ways to explore and operate on distant planetary bodies. We are singularly focused on designing, building, and operating a fleet of multi-purpose commercial planetary rovers to extend and enhance humanity's presence in the solar system. We are seeking motivated, creative, and exceptional people to join our world-class team.\nAstrolab is looking for a Sr. Integration Engineer to be a technical leader for how our CLV-1 crewed lunar rover is integrated and proven ready for test, launch, and lunar mission operations. You will define the vehicle-level integration flow and system integration and test (SI&T) approach, lead the most complex integration operations and anomaly investigations, and help establish integration engineering as a discipline at Astrolab. This role bridges Manufacturing Engineering and our Test team, owning the vehicle from build through functional checkout and handoff to test.\nWhat you'll do:\nOwn large portions of the vehicle-level integration flow for our rover builds, including build sequence, integration levels, and verification at each step through final closeout and ship \nDefine the SI&T approach with Systems Engineering and the Test team: what is verified during integration versus environmental and qualification testing, and how functional checkouts repeat between campaigns \nLead complex integration operations and integrated vehicle tests, including first vehicle power-on, end-to-end functional tests, mobility checkouts, and hardware-in-the-loop testing \nLead investigations into anomalous vehicle behavior across mechanical, electrical, and software boundaries; represent integration at quality review boards \nLead integration and manufacturing readiness reviews for major program milestones \nDevelop and institutionalize integration standards, including procedure templates, safe-to-mate practices, hazardous operations (high-voltage batteries, critical lifts), and workmanship \nDefine requirements for integration GSE/EGSE, vehicle handling equipment, and integration facility layout \nOutline detailed integration plans and drive cross functional execution \nMentor earlier career engineers and technicians, and serve as technical lead for cross-disciplinary integration efforts \n\nWhat you'll bring:\n Basic Qualifications:\nBachelor's degree in a science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM) field \n5+ years of integration, test, or manufacturing engineering experience on complex flight hardware such as spacecraft, launch vehicles, planetary or lunar surface systems, crewed vehicles, or aircraft \nHands-on experience leading vehicle- or system-level integration of flight hardware through functional test and handoff into environmental testing \n Preferred Qualifications:\nExperience integrating vehicle hardware on crewed or human-rated vehicles, or on NASA flight programs \nDemonstrated ownership of anomaly investigations on integrated electromechanical systems, driven to root cause under schedule pressure \nStrong understanding of vehicle electrical architecture (power distribution, harnessing, data buses, grounding and bonding) \nHigh-voltage and lithium-ion battery integration and safety on crewed vehicles, or EV powertrain integration \nExperience defining test philosophies; working understanding of GSFC-STD-7000 (GEVS) and SMC-S-016 \nDeep understanding of industry and NASA workmanship and fastener standards (NASA-STD-8739 series, NASA-STD-5020, J-STD-001, IPC/WHMA-A-620) \nProficiency with CAD modeling software (e.g., NX), and a working knowledge of GD&T \nExperience creating and managing integration work instructions via MES/MRP software (e.g. Manufacturo) \nProficiency in developing, collating, and documenting best practices and organizational level process improvement in Jira / Confluence \nLaunch campaign experience \nExperience planning critical lifts and hazardous operations; familiarity with NASA-STD-8719.9 \nExperience leading and mentoring engineers and technicians \nBenefits and Perks\nJoin a team of best-in-class engineers building the foundation of planetary surface exploration\nEquity ownership in the company\nComprehensive health benefits, including medical, dental, vision, and mental health support\n401(k) plan with company match\nFlexible PTO and parental leave\nWeekly lunch stipend, plus complimentary snacks and beverages on-site\nOnce a month social hour on-site with food and drinks","description_format":"text","description_chars":4864,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Parental leave"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Manufacturing","Space & Aerospace","Aerospace Manufacturing","Space Services"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-27T18:45:22Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":4,"expected_fill_days":18,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-31T05:58:55Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":200000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/venturi-astrolab-sr-integration-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/venturi-astrolab-sr-integration-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-31T12:53:37Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":19954,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-01T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":176589},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=176589"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fventuri-astrolab-sr-integration-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fventuri-astrolab-sr-integration-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fventuri-astrolab-sr-integration-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/venturi-astrolab-sr-integration-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fventuri-astrolab-sr-integration-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3351606}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"astrolab.space","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3351606},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people);
