Full Job Description

Description

As a Test Automation Engineer at Impulse, you will develop and operate the software systems that power our propulsion test infrastructure. You’ll be responsible for automation, data acquisition, and control software used across our engine test stands, valve test benches, and other propulsion component test assets. In this role, you’ll collaborate closely with test operations, propulsion engineers, and other cross‑functional teams to ensure rapid, reliable, and high‑fidelity testing of critical flight hardware.

Responsibilities

Design, implement, and maintain automation software for propulsion test operations, including near–real‑time data acquisition, control systems, automated test sequences, and user-facing tools.
Implement automation frameworks to streamline setup, execution, and analysis for propulsion component testing (e.g., engines, valves, pressure systems).
Work closely with the test operations team to continually refine and optimize the software used on test assets.

Review and contribute high‑quality, well‑tested code within a collaborative, fast‑moving environment.

Diagnose and resolve issues across software, hardware interfaces, and test infrastructure with resourceful, hands‑on problem‑solving.

Work onsite with engineering and test teams to support rapid propulsion development.

Minimum Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in engineering, computer science or related field.
Experience developing user-facing software applications related to networking, hardware control and data acquisition.
2+ years of demonstrated proficiency with python or an object-oriented programming language & demonstrated hands-on experience operating the software.

Preferred Skills and Experience

Demonstrated knowledge of basic data acquisition, control principles, and hardware‑software integration.
Experience with software best practices and workflows, including git.
Demonstrated ability of taking project ownership and working well in small teams.
Master’s degree in electrical, software, mechanical, or aerospace engineering.
Familiarity or experience with Propulsion Systems development testing.
LabVIEW certification (CLAD, CLD, CLA).
Experience with real‑time operating systems or deterministic control software.
Hands-on experience with design, build, and operation of electrical systems.
Understanding of core networking concepts such as IP addressing, Ethernet, VLANs, and PTP.
Experience in a startup or agile development environment.

Travel Requirement

Occasional travel to our Mojave test site to support new test asset bring‑up, onsite debugging, and coordination with the test team. Travel is planned and infrequent, focused on high‑impact activities.

Additional Information:

Compensation bands are determined by role, level, location, and alignment with market data. Individual level and base pay is determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on job-related skills, education, experience, technical capabilities and internal equity. In addition to base salary, for full-time hires, you may also be eligible for long-term incentives, in the form of stock options, and access to medical, vision & dental coverage as well as access to a 401(k) retirement plan.
