Mechanical Engineer intern (Space Company - London)

Description: We are an engineering firm operating in space propulsion, currently developing ion propulsion systems for the European Space Agency. We are looking for a Mechanical Engineer intern candidate with strong engineering skills and experience in CAD, FEM, and preferably in advanced simulations in HPC environments. The role will involve designing, validating, and implementing mission critical mechanical systems, as wall as additional PhD level research in line with the needs of the company. We are carrying out research with such elite universities as Imperial College and UCL, and as a consequence successful candidates will be interacting with some of the UK's top researchers. We are looking for candidates with strong work ethic, ability to perform under time pressure, and with an ability to learn new topics quickly. Successful candidates will be offered a success based compensation or a full time position in our London office, and in the unfortunate case where we aren't a good fit, candidates will be able to sell in the open market an experience with a deep technology firm working for government agencies. — MSc or PhD in a quantitative field, preferably Mechanical or Aeronautical Engineering. — Looking forward to hearing from you!
