- Good communication skills, with the ability to document and explain technical solutions clearly.
¿Por qué nosotros?
At Kreios Space, you won’t be joining a large, layered organization where engineering is far from decision-making. You will work close to the core of the technology, alongside the people designing, building and testing it.
This is a hands-on role in a deep-tech environment where mechanical engineering has a direct impact on hardware performance, manufacturability and iteration speed. You will contribute to real systems, real constraints and real technical trade-offs, not just documentation or isolated design tasks.
We are building ambitious space technology from the ground up, which means high ownership, fast learning and close collaboration across disciplines. If you enjoy working on complex hardware, moving between design and practical implementation, and being part of a team that is shaping the product as it evolves, this is the kind of environment where you can do your best work.
¿Quiénes somos?
Estamos liderando el desarrollo del primer sistema de propulsión eléctrica air breathing (ABEP) diseñado específicamente para la órbita terrestre muy baja (VLEO). Este motor revolucionario permite que los satélites operen entre 150 y 300 km de altitud, captando y utilizando partículas atmosféricas como propulsor.
Al eliminar la necesidad de transportar combustible a bordo, aumentamos drásticamente la eficiencia y superamos el principal desafío de la resistencia atmosférica en VLEO. Esta tecnología disruptiva abre la puerta a una nueva generación de servicios espaciales, desde la observación de la Tierra en alta resolución hasta las comunicaciones casi en tiempo real.
Para hacerlo posible, contamos con un equipo de profesionales apasionados, visionarios y comprometidos con superar los límites de lo posible. Si compartes esta pasión y quieres dejar tu huella en el futuro de la industria espacial, queremos conocerte.
