Spacecraft represent the most pressing unmet need across the entire aerospace industry. As more launch vehicles come online and the cost to orbit decreases, more companies launching payloads to space continue to emerge. For the first time in history, this influx of payload companies combined with reduced launch costs has resulted in a massive increase in need for commercial spacecraft platforms, known as satellite buses. These buses hold the payloads of our customers and are flown on launch vehicles. Apex manufactures these satellite buses at scale using a combination of software, vertical integration, and hardware that is designed for manufacturing. Our spacecraft enable the future of society: ranging from earth observation to communications and more. We'd love for you to join us on our mission of providing humankind access to the galaxy beyond our planet. About the Role Apex is seeking a Chemical Propulsion Engineer to join our closely integrated team, driving the...

NX Design Engineer, Gas Turbine Propulsion Orange County, CA • U.S. Persons Only THE OPPORTUNITY The company is developing compact gas turbine engines built to hit demanding performance targets at a fraction of the size and cost of legacy designs. This is a hands-on role for a design engineer who can take a mechanical design from a blank sheet through to a producible part - someone who is genuinely excellent at CAD (NX strongly preferred), with a real track record of designing complex mechanical assemblies, ideally backed by a portfolio or patents that show what they've owned. Direct experience with rotating machinery, turbomachinery, or jet engines is a real plus and helps you ramp quickly, but the core bar is CAD depth and assembly-design ownership in a lean, fast-moving environment where engineers cover more ground than they would at a larger company. No new-grad or intern-level openings at this time. Must be a U.S. person. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES Own engine components...
