Sr. Mechanical Engineer (Structures)
Location: Playa Vista, California (in-person, five days per week)
Outpost is building the return lane from space. We're developing reusable vehicles that bring payloads home from orbit safely and precisely, enabling faster in-space manufacturing, global delivery, and entirely new capabilities in the space economy.
We're a mission-driven team that cares deeply about the work and the people doing it. We are in an exciting stage of growth, which means ownership from day one. Our engineers design hardware, test it, iterate on it, and watch it move toward flight. We are based in the aerospace hub of Playa Vista, where you can spend your days solving complex problems and your evenings on the beach or in the mountains. The work is meaningful, the team is collaborative, and the mission matters. If you want to see the systems you design make it to orbit—and back—come build with us.
The Role
The Sr. Mechanical Engineer will serve as the technical authority for the primary and secondary structures of Outpost's Carryall. This is a role for a veteran structural engineer who has expertise on full-scale flight vehicles whether launch vehicles, satellites, or re-entry capsules. Unlike traditional space vehicle roles where the structure simply needs to survive launch, you are designing for the round trip: launch vibration, the harsh vacuum of orbit, and the extreme thermal and mechanical loads of hypersonic re-entry and landing. You will own the structural architecture of the vehicle, moving rapidly from trade studies to detailed analysis, and finally to hands-on integration. We need someone with the deep intuition that comes from 15+ years of seeing hardware fly (and fail).
Responsibilities
- Structural Architect: Lead the mechanical design of the entire vehicle structure, including primary structure, interfaces to the deployable heatshield, secondary structures, and payload bay
- High-Fidelity Analysis: Perform and sign off on detailed hand calculations and Finite Element Analysis (ANSYS/FEMAP/NASTRAN). You will be the final check on stiffness, buckling, and thermal expansion compatibility.
- Drawing & GD&T: Create and approve high-quality manufacturing drawings with appropriate geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (ASME Y14.5) to ensure parts fit the first time.
- Build & Test Leadership: \"Get your hands dirty\" leading the assembly of your designs. Own the structural test campaign (static load, random vibration, shock, and deployment testing) to qualify hardware for flight.
- Vendor & Partner Management: Work directly with machine shops, composite vendors, and external partners to resolve fabrication conflicts and ensure on-time delivery of precision parts.
- Mentorship: Elevate the team's standard of engineering rigor. Mentor junior engineers in design best practices, analysis methods, and First Principles thinking.
Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree or higher in Mechanical, Aerospace, or Structural Engineering.
- 10+ years of experience minimum (15+ preferred) in the design and analysis of complex aerospace structures and mechanisms.
- Full-Vehicle Heritage: Proven track record working on full space vehicles or rockets (not just subsystems). You should have experience taking a primary structure from concept through PDR/CDR to flight.
- CAD Proficiency: Expert-level skill in Siemens NX, SolidWorks, or similar parametric modeling software.
- Analysis Expertise: Deep background in structural analysis (FEA) and classical hand calculations. You must trust your hand calcs before you trust the solver.
- Materials Knowledge: Extensive understanding of aerospace materials (aluminum, titanium, Inconel, composites) and their behavior in extreme thermal environments.
- Manufacturing Fluency: You understand the limits of manufacturing, CNC machining, sheet metal, welding, and composite layup, and you design for them.
Preferred Experience
- Active U.S. Government Security Clearance (Not required, but beneficial)
- Experience with deployable space structures and mechanisms (booms, solar arrays, antennas, or aerobrakes).
- Experience designing for high-heat environments or integrating with Thermal Protection Systems (TPS).
- Proficiency in scripting (Python/MATLAB) for design automation or data post-processing.
- Deep knowledge of aerospace standards (NASA-STD-5000 series, SMC-S-016) for structural margins and testing.
Compensation
- $160,000 – $210,000; Salary may vary with experience
- Incentive Stock Options
- Annual Performance-Based Bonus
- Medical, Dental and Vision Insurance
- Short- and Long-Term Disability Insurance
- Life Insurance
- PTO
- 401k with Company match
- Subsidized daily catered lunch, snacks and coffee

Company Description
Elastium is an advanced manufacturing startup company transforming the legacy footwear industry toward rapid, fully automated, and localized production. Our manufacturing platform combines proprietary 3D printing technology, software, and materials science to make shoe production as effortless as pushing a button. We're building the most frictionless way of turning bits into useful atoms, sending ripples of singularity across the industry, and bringing tens of billions of GDP back to America.
Responsibilities
You'll be playing the key role in rolling out the mass production of Elastium production cells, operating at unprecedented scale for the AM industry. Specifically, you will:
- Execute the mechanical design of the most advanced FGF/FDM 3D printers on Earth, from initial concept through testing and deployment.
- Eliminate expensive, complex assemblies with radically simple designs that minimize part count, are trivial to build, and scale fast.
- Develop novel tooling solutions for fabrication and assembly of structural parts.
- Develop process flows, breaking down large assemblies into a logical part flow of subassemblies and sub-processes.
- Create excellent technical documentation – test plans and reports, assembly instructions, inspection requirements, part and assembly drawings, vendor specifications, BOMs, etc.
- Work with contract manufacturers and vendors across various disciplines to develop repeatable, sustained processes for quick-turn development as well as at-scale production.
- Troubleshoot and resolve mechanical issues during design, commissioning, and production rollout.
Qualifications
- BS in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent.
- 3+ years of experience designing, testing, and shipping complex electromechanical systems (robotics or industrial tech preferred).
- Proficiency with NX (should be your primary CAD for 2+ years).
- A formidable track record building systems utilizing robot arms or precision gantry kinematics.

Why this job matters
At Elastium, you won’t be another engineer optimizing inside an existing box—you’ll build in the wild, architecting a new industrial era where factories run like software, starting with footwear. Footwear is an enormous challenge because it’s a massive, messy, labor-heavy industry that left the U.S. for a reason. Reinventing how footwear is made at scale requires the deployment of autonomous plants with thousands of robots that can be reconfigured in real time with no human in the loop. If you want to solve problems that fundamentally reshape the physical world, this is the mission.
