We’re unlocking the potential of space and ushering in a new era of opportunity and exploration in orbit to improve life on Earth.
As an Aircraft Technician, you will be part of the team that is dedicated to increasing our launch cadence in NZ and continuing to deliver a high-quality service to our customers.

As a technician, you will be hands on, working with tools and equipment to build or test Electron Launch vehicles or components.
As well as a being a career-defining role, working at Rocket Lab means being part of meaningful projects with world-leading experts.
Collaboration is at our core – every idea is heard, and everyone makes a difference.
We get things done. Our team is nimble, decisions are made quickly, and we are action oriented. While other companies talk about it, we do it. This means projects get the green light faster and ideas are put into practice rapidly.
Everyone works on the big stuff. This isn’t a huge aerospace company where you get lost in bureaucracy and end up a tiny cog in a giant machine. At Rocket Lab, your work directly impacts the success of each mission. Everyone’s voice is heard, and everyone can contribute major projects. This is your chance to play a pivotal role in developing space systems that change the way we access space.
