What are the responsibilities and job description for the Manufacturing Engineer position at Elveo?
About Elveo
Elveo is what happens when two pioneers in direct-to-device (D2D) communications join forces. Elveo brings together a combined 20 years of expertise to close the coverage gap for more than 50 mobile network operators (MNOs) and major distribution partners operating in 60 countries worldwide.
That heritage and our technology powers what we call ‘elevated intelligence’ — a new approach that processes and adapts on orbit, delivering voice and data services straight to mobile users, IoT devices and machines across enterprise, government and humanitarian sectors worldwide.
As a team, we’re on a mission to deliver powerful compute and connectivity directly to individuals and objects everywhere on Earth.
Join us, and become part of a globally inclusive company that is transforming satellite communications from a niche service to an essential global infrastructure, and democratizing connectivity for billions worldwide.
Ready to take the next step? Join us.
Job Summary
Elveo is searching for a Manufacturing Engineer to support the manufacturing of satellites for our constellation. This role focuses on developing work instructions, defining process flows, and building test fixtures (jigs) to enable efficient and repeatable production. Elveo builds many spacecraft at a rapid rate, so the ideal candidate has experience working in a fast-paced environment and is comfortable translating engineering designs into clear, executable manufacturing processes. We are looking for individuals with experience using Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) and familiarity with CAD tools for fixture design.
Core Responsibilities
