Launcher, Summer Internship
Control team internship, so what?
Are you a curious person that likes to learn, make and have some control issues?
As part of the control team you will help us to get closer to space by doing more.
Things you will be involved: awesome team, testing, making, electronics, space stuff, sensors, calibration, firmware, software, 🚀… Jacqueline of all trades rules around here.
All that to join forces to build control systems (test stands, pressure regulation, thrust vector control, …) and probably other things too.
WHO WE ARE
Launcher is in a ten year journey to take small satellites to LEO. Actually a bit less than ten years, we plan to be up there 🔜 by 3/16/26 celebrating 100th anniversary of Goddard’s first liquid-fueled rocket.
Note that he did test his rocket in the snow, we do that sometimes too :)
