Senior Avionics Engineer

Stellenbeschreibung:

Overview

In this role you will scale our flight and test hardware by strengthening in-house avionics capabilities. You will work in a lean team to transform requirements into robust electronics and software for propulsion systems. Expect hands-on hardware and software integration, design reviews, and lab development to drive reliable, manufacturable avionics. You will collaborate across disciplines to meet mission requirements, with a clear impact on system performance and test readiness. This is a hands-on opportunity to shape the avionics architecture for space-grade propulsion hardware.
