Staff Industrial Engineer (Spacecraft Production Scaling)

As the Industrial Engineer – Spacecraft Production Scaling at  Impulse, you will be responsible to scale spacecraft production in a fast-paced, high-growth environment. You will work with all stakeholders (AI&T, Manufacturing, Engineer, BD, Finance, and property) to develop a comprehensive industrial scaling plan to rapidly increase production capacity and deliver spacecraft at scale. You will operate at the intersection of engineering and operations, turning ambitious production goals into executable plans and building the systems required to support rapid growth. We need a builder who thrives in ambiguity, moves quickly, and takes ownership from initial planning through execution. You must be metrics driven, with an ability to coordinate informed trades related to make/buy, automation, production infrastructure, operating systems and test systems. Success means increasing throughput, removing manufacturing and test constraints, deploying capital effectively, and ensuring facilities and equipment are ready before production demand outpaces capacity. We are looking for an owner, not just an advisor—someone who can move from a spreadsheet to the factory floor, make sound decisions with incomplete information, and turn plans into operational results.
