About Us At CosmoChute, we are building modular, reusable lunar robotics infrastructure for long-duration planetary operations. Our systems combine mobility, modular payload deployment, survivability through lunar nights, and repair ability to make sustained presence on the Moon economically viable. We’re a deeply technical, fast-moving team that believes in real ownership, real trust and in creating an environment where your best work matters.

If you want to work on hardware that will one day operate on the moon, this is the role. Your Role

We're looking for a Senior Systems Engineer to own the technical coherence of our lunar surface systems. You'll sit at the intersection of every engineering discipline on the team, responsible for making sure the system works as a whole. The responsibilities include definitions and management of the requirements, managing interfaces, driving trade studies, and being the person who catches the problems that fall between subsystem boundaries before they become mission risks. Your Responsibilities

Own the system-level requirements architecture for the LEAP platform

Work directly with the CTO on mission-level technical decisions

Define and manage interface control documents (ICDs) across mechanical, electrical, software, and operational interfaces

Maintain Technical Budgets across domains

Lead system-level trade studies and support key design decisions with rigorous analysis

Maintain the ConOps and mission analysis iterations and documentation through the design lifecycle

Develop and own the system verification and validation plan, and coordinate V&V; activities across the team

Identify and manage system-level risks





Support FMECA and fault tree analysis across subsystems

Act as the integrating voice in design reviews, keeping subsystem decisions anchored to mission and system-level requirements Requirements

Must have Experience of 5+ years in the same or similar domain.

Experience leading or contributing to all the phases of the systems engineering lifecycle

Experience in Requirements Engineering, Configuration Management, Architecture Trade Studies, Interface Management and V&V; Campaigns

Comfortable working across discipline boundaries

Experience with MATLAB/Simulink, STK AGI, GMAT or similar Mission Analysis and Mission Design platforms

Rigorous systems thinker who can prioritize mission reliability and also move fast when the situation demands it.

Good to have

Experience with model-based or document-based SE tools (DOORS, Cameo, or equivalent)

Experience on planetary, lunar, or deep space missions

Familiarity with ECSS, NASA systems engineering standards, or equivalent

Exposure to robotic or autonomous surface systems

What we deeply value

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Aerospace Engineering, Systems Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electronics Engineering,, or related engineering field Curiosity, initiative, and ownership

Ability to objectively weigh design decisions and maintain inter-domain cooperation Practical engineering judgment and first principles thinking

Profound mutual respect among co-workers

Willingness to iterate rapidly Passion for robotics, space systems, and exploration technologies Advantages

Competitive compensation Equity participation

Meaningful long-term growth potential

Complete honesty with only legally required abstractions
