Instrumentation Technician

Who We Are: Venus Aerospace is revolutionizing rocket engine propulsion.

With the first generational leap in rocket engine technology since Apollo, our proprietary Rotating Detonation Rocket Engine and Venus Detonation Ramjets deliver historic efficiency and performance across aerospace applications.

We are building the next generation of propulsion platforms that enable breakthrough capabilities in space, defense, and commercial high-speed flight.

Our team thrives on solving the toughest engineering challenges and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in aerospace.

At Venus, we’re looking for bold engineers and innovators who want to make history and redefine the future of propulsion.

The Role: Instrumentation TechnicianIn this role, you won’t just be supporting aerospace innovation, you’ll be directly enabling it.

As an Instrumentation Technician, you will be on the front lines of testing and validating the systems that push the boundaries of high ‑ speed flight.

You’ll own the installation, calibration, and maintenance of critical instrumentation that drives real-time data collection across our test platforms.

Your attention to detail, technical precision, and problem ‑ solving mindset will help ensure every test is safe, successful, and informative.

This is an opportunity to work hands-on with cutting ‑ edge technology, collaborate with engineers who are shaping the future, and make a measurable impact every day on the breakthroughs we achieve.
