Quality Control and Laboratory Technician

Space assets and services are not fully monetized. At Revolv Space, we are solving the problem of low duty cycles by developing and manufacturing the next generation of critical subsystems enabling continuous spacecraft operations and therefore full monetization of space assets.

We start with tackling the power limitations of small satellites by providing best-in-class products for small satellites: Solar Array Drive Assemblies, solar arrays and deployment mechanisms.

To achieve this mission, we are on the lookout for a QC and Lab Technician who will be a gatekeeper for any equipment or parts to be used in production, ensuring their compliance with requirements . This role provides close collaboration with the QA Manager and across other production and procurement roles. If you're down for the challenge of building systems that will later reach orbit, this is a call for you!
