We are inventors, designers, engineers, scientists, tinkerers, entrepreneurs, adventurers, artists, activists, global citizens, architects, musicians, builders, writers, athletes and space nerds. We partner with the best minds and most experienced teams across industry and academia, bringing together the knowledge, experience, and skills required to navigate our critical path.
Asteroid mining has lived at the intersection of scientific research and popular culture for decades, with as many academic papers published as there are books, TV shows and movies about it.
Access to resources, with its finite nature and disparate distribution, plays an essential part in the geopolitical web of power and wealth. It has defined economic growth to such an extent that we have been using them as primary demarcation lines and identifiers in our history, from the stone to bronze and iron age to our current silicon age.
But our resources-driven growth faces a massive existential challenge, with climate change, ecosystem degradation and resource depletion demanding a complete reset. Humanity needs to shift global transportation, manufacturing, construction and energy onto a sustainable path.
Expanding beyond the Kármán line is where we believe transformative future growth and innovation will be found. Recent missions by NASA (OSIRIS-REx & DART) and JAXA (Hayabusa2) have firmly pushed the idea of using space resources from academic research into commercial opportunity.
We believe the Regolith Age, powered by abundant space resources, is an inevitability that we can accelerate.
Position Title: Electrical Systems & Harness Design Engineer
Location: Broomfield, CO
Position Type: Full-time
At Karman+, we’re building spacecraft systems that will take us beyond Earth orbit. For the High Frontier mission, we need an electrical systems and harness design engineer to own electrical architecture and harness design for flight and test systems. This includes helping to establish standard harness design, build, and maintenance standards and best practices. This role requires a deep understanding of vehicle systems design and requires coordination with all subsystem teams. A good candidate will have experience with aerospace industry harnessing standards such as NASA-STD-8739.4 and MSFC-SPEC-494 and will have directly designed flight harnesses for space vehicles. In this role you will be a member of the assembly integration and test team and may be involved in additional electrical test work.
We are crazy ambitious but the timing is right. Be part of the team looking to make it happen.
