Composites Fabricator

At Reflect, you will be expected to move fast, have a lot of ownership and, most importantly, be able to effect change. If this excites you, we are interested in hearing about your best work and accomplishments across any domain and from any points in your life.

As a Composites Fabrication Specialist, you’ll be responsible for turning cutting-edge designs for deployable composites structures into physical reality. From purchasing pre-preg, to maintaining and upgrading our custom curing oven, to milling molds on our in-house CNC, to doing the hand layups yourself, you’ll be responsible for every step of the process to go from CAD to reality. You’ll also have strong input into the design of the composites, as you’ll be the first person to notice when complications arise during fabrication, and you’ll be responsible for brainstorming fabrication solutions to improve the quality of the composite structures you make, to ultimately improve performance.

The composite structures you make will be going to space in 2025.

• Lead the fabrication effort for all in-house composites

• Quickly and precisely perform space-quality carbon fiber layups, from mold prep to baking

• Create custom tooling, molds, and performance testing systems

• Purchase and maintain composites tools & materials

• Find solutions to unusual composite manufacturing challenges

• Extensive previous composites experience, especially unique or novel composite manufacturing

• Experience manufacturing thin composites with your hands successfully

• Experience working with a spacecraft is a bonus

Even if you don't meet 100% of the above qualifications, we are likely still interested in hearing from you. Hiring exceptional individuals is our #1 priority, and we believe that exceptional people often have highly unusual backgrounds.

We are also interested in carving out unique roles for unconventional people that we are excited about working with.
