About Pangea Aerospace: We are a company dedicated to developing advanced propulsion systems for the space industry based on three key principles: high efficiency, sustainability, and reusability. We are revolutionizing the space industry with ground-breaking innovations that allow us to offer the best performance to cost propulsion systems. We are a passionate, multicultural, and multidisciplinary team pushing the boundaries of what is possible in space propulsion technology. We have already made history by successfully testing the world's first 3D-printed Methalox Aerospike engine, marking a significant milestone for the space industry. You will be leading the development of the thrust chamber and combustion devices of the Arcos aerospike engine and Kronos full-flow staged combustion engine. You will be leading the Combustion Devices team, in the Propulsion department, closely interacting with the Systems, Mechanical and Test teams. You will be joining exciting projects that are shaping the future on space propulsion, from aerospike to full-flow staged combustion technologies to build the future very-high thrust engine of Europe.
