Occupation
Environmental Test Engineer
Environmental Test Engineers design and execute testing campaigns that validate spacecraft and satellite components can survive launch, vacuum, and orbital conditions through vibration, thermal-vacuum, and other environmental testing. The work involves operating specialized laboratory equipment, developing test procedures, analyzing failure data, and delivering detailed technical reports—typically within aerospace or defense contractors working on space hardware. The role suits hands-on engineers with aerospace testing experience who want direct responsibility for critical validation work and can lead complex test operations across mechanical, thermal, and vibrational domains.
