About Firefly Aerospace

As an end-to-end space transportation company, Firefly Aerospace is on a mission to enable our world to
launch, land, and operate in space – anywhere, anytime. Our launch vehicles, lunar landers, and orbital
vehicles provide government and commercial customers with full mission services from low Earth orbit to
the surface of the Moon and beyond. Headquartered in North Austin, Texas, Firefly is looking for
passionate, hardworking innovators to join our team and help fuel our successful trajectory into space.

About the Role

The Propulsion Director provides technical and organizational leadership for the design, development, test, qualification, and operation of propulsion systems across Firefly’s launch vehicles and spacecraft. This role is accountable for multiple engine and fluid system programs spanning early architecture trades through flight operations.

As a vertically integrated company with co-located design, fabrication, and test facilities, Firefly expects the Propulsion Director to be deeply engaged in hardware development while setting a clear technical vision and execution strategy. The successful candidate balances hands-on technical depth with people leadership, thrives in a fast-paced development environment, and drives a culture of rigorous testing, ownership, and continuous improvement.

The scope of the propulsion engineering department spans launch vehicle engines, spacecraft propulsion, vehicle fluid systems, valve design, and propulsion analysis teams.

Responsibilities

Set and own the technical vision, strategy, and execution of all propulsion and fluid systems programs across launch vehicles and spacecraft
Lead, develop, and grow a multidisciplinary propulsion organization of ~100 engineers, fostering technical excellence, accountability, and professional growth
Maintain ownership of propulsion hardware and systems across the full lifecycle, from requirements definition and architecture trades through qualification, flight, and operations
Serve as a senior technical authority for propulsion and fluid systems, supporting major design reviews, test readiness reviews, anomaly resolution, and flight readiness activities
Collaborate closely with discipline chief engineers, vehicle chief engineers, and cross-functional teams including structures, avionics, software, manufacturing, integration, quality, and test
Drive propulsion system performance, reliability, cost, and manufacturability through disciplined design practices and data-driven decision making
Ensure robust risk identification, mitigation, and closure through analysis, testing, and operational feedback
Oversee development, qualification, and acceptance testing of propulsion components, subsystems, and engines, with an emphasis on learning-oriented testing
Contribute directly to new engine and propulsion technology development, providing technical insight and guidance where needed
Establish and uphold engineering standards, best practices, and compliance with applicable industry and government requirements

Qualifications

Required

B.S. in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related technical field
8+ years of experience in the design, development, and test of aerospace propulsion and/or fluid systems
5+ years of experience leading engineering teams, with demonstrated success delivering complex hardware programs
Strong technical foundation in propulsion system design, fluid dynamics, combustion, turbomachinery, thermodynamics, and thermal systems as well as a demonstrated ability to apply these first principles to arrive at simple, robust solutions
Demonstrated experience owning hardware from early concept through testing, qualification, and operation
Hands-on experience driving performance, reliability, or design-for-manufacturability initiatives
Deep understanding of cryogenic and storable propellant systems
Working knowledge of relevant aerospace standards and requirements (e.g., SMC-S-016, SMC-S-025)
Working knowledge of manufacturing, fabrication, integration, and quality control relevant to fluid components (such as machining, inspection, assembly, testing, etc.)
Knowledge of fluid components such as valves, regulators, pressure transducers, tubing, pressurized hardware, seals, and instrumentation and experience performing fluid systems sizing analysis with such components
Proven ability to rapidly develop solutions with partially defined or evolving requirements
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to represent propulsion programs to internal and external stakeholders

Desired Qualifications

Advanced degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or equivalent field
Extensive experience developing and operating liquid rocket engines, launch vehicles, or spacecraft
In-depth knowledge of cryogenic, high-pressure, or high-temperature system operations
Experience with fluid system subcomponent or pressurized component development, design, or testing (such as valves, regulators, piping systems, pumps, etc.)
Familiarity with multiple engine cycle architectures (e.g., gas generator, staged combustion, full-flow staged combustion)
Proven ability to build and sustain a high-performing engineering culture centered on ownership, learning, and execution
Demonstrated experience with full hardware lifecycle ownership, from blank-sheet design through full operation
Demonstrated passion for advancing propulsion technology and integrating emerging capabilities into an executable roadmap

Disclaimer

Firefly offers outstanding benefits for our employees, including generous health, dental and
vision plans with low plan deductibles, parental leave, educational reimbursement, short term
disability, and flexible PTO options.
