If you want to put your skills to work where the stakes are real and the mission is bigger than any one person, forge the future with Voyager.

As a Mechanical Technician at Voyager Technologies, you will lead hands‑on assembly, integration, and test activities for advanced mechanical systems supporting space and national security programs. You’ll bring deep technical expertise, sound judgment, and a builder’s mindset to work that has tangible mission impact — from prototype through flight hardware. This is a senior‑level individual contributor role for a technician who can independently own complex builds, develop custom tooling and test setups, and mentor others through challenging integration problems.

• Lead assembly and integration activities, design and implement complex test setups, develop custom fixtures and tooling, and optimize the testing process for efficiency and accuracy.
• Apply advanced skills in component and subsystem integration, troubleshoot assembly issues, and contribute to the development of test procedures and protocols.
• Independently set up and operate common measurement instruments, perform basic calibrations, and acquire test data using standard measurement techniques.
• Handle complex mechanical assembly tasks, including assembling intricate components and subsystems, interpreting and modifying assembly instructions, troubleshooting assembly problems, and performing quality control checks during the assembly process.
• Perform basic machining tasks and operate common machining tools and equipment.
• Perform basic molding and casting tasks, prepare molds and casting materials, and follow established molding and casting procedures.

• 7–12 years of progressive experience as a mechanical technician, ideally in aerospace, defense, space systems, or similarly regulated, precision‑driven environments.
• Demonstrated ability to lead complex assembly and integration efforts independently, including ownership of fixtures, tooling, and test setups.
• Strong proficiency interpreting engineering drawings, GD&T, work instructions, and assembly procedures.
• Hands‑on experience with common measurement instruments (calipers, micrometers, dial indicators, torque tools) and basic instrument calibration.
• Working knowledge of basic machining, molding, and casting operations and the equipment associated with each.

• Associate’s degree, technical certificate, or equivalent military or trade‑school training in mechanical technology, manufacturing, or a related discipline.
• Experience working under formal quality systems (AS9100, ISO 9001) and/or in cleanroom environments.
• Familiarity with environmental, vibration, or thermal‑vacuum testing.
• Active or prior U.S. security clearance, or eligibility to obtain one.
