Design, Build and Launch Switzerland’s Next Bi-Liquid Rocket to 9km: HERMES II
ARIS’s next-generation bi-liquid vehicle will soon begin development, a system leveraging the lessons of HERMES to push for maximum altitude and recovery precision in the 9km liquid category at EuRoC 2026. Featuring liquid propulsion, guided recovery, and optimized mass components, this project will push the integration and performance boundaries of student rocketry under the 40’960 Ns limit.
The Role:
As part of the Guided Recovery Subsystem, your mission is to control descent. This team is responsible for all elements of recovery — from drogue/main deployment logic to servo-driven actuation in descent. You’ll work on system redundancy, control algorithms, and mechanical implementation to make sure HERMES II comes back exactly where we want it.
