Electronics Engineer (m/f/d) – Space Systems Electronics

Your mission

We’re looking for an Electronics Engineer who can take ownership of electronic subsystems end-to-end: translating needs into requirements, designing schematics, validating designs in the lab, and supporting the path toward future qualification‑grade hardware.

System design & engineering

• Define electronic subsystem concepts and architectures (power tree, interfaces, protection concepts, derating mindset)
• Translate system needs into clear hardware requirements and verification objectives (and keep documentation tidy and usable)
• Collaborate closely with mechanical, test, and embedded/software teams to ensure smooth system integration

Schematic design & analysis

• Own schematic capture for mixed‑signal and power electronics:
• Sensor front‑ends (pressure, temperature, position), ADC interfaces, signal conditioning
• Power stages (DC/ DC conversion, protection, power distribution, load switching)
• Driver stages (solenoids/actuators; motor‑control‑adjacent circuitry is a plus)
• Component selection with attention to availability, reliability, and lifetime

Simulation & engineering validation

• Perform circuit analysis and simulation where appropriate (e.g., SPICE) to de‑risk designs
• Worst‑case thinking: tolerances, thermal considerations, losses, stability, and protection behavior

PCB collaboration (guidance, not layout ownership)

• Provide layout guidance to the PCB designer (stack‑up constraints, grounding strategy, return paths, isolation/clearances, test points)
• Review layout from an electrical/EMI/signal‑integrity perspective (you won’t be the one routing boards)

Bring‑up, testing & verification

• Prototype bring‑up, debugging, and systematic bench testing
• Define test procedures, capture results, and feed improvements back into the next iteration
• Support the build‑up of more advanced test capabilities over time (including future EMI/EMC pre‑compliance as the lab evolves)

Documentation

• Maintain clear engineering documentation: requirements, design decisions, schematics/BoM notes, test plans, and test reports
• Contribute to design reviews and milestone documentation

Your profile

Must Have

• Degree in Electrical Engineering / Mechatronics / Embedded Systems (or equivalent practical experience)
• Strong hands‑on background in electronics development and lab testing
• Confident in schematic capture and mixed‑signal + power electronics fundamentals
• Electronics Simulation (SPICE/LTspice)
• Comfortable with core lab equipment (oscilloscope, DMM, power supplies, electronic loads, function generator)
• Structured engineering mindset: requirements → design → verification
• Strong technical English (written and spoken)

Nice‑to‑have

• Experience with high‑reliability or space‑related development (derating, environmental constraints, documentation discipline)
• Motor control / inverter‑adjacent hardware experience (gate drivers, current sensing, isolation)
• Familiarity with Altium Designer (or similar), MATLAB/Simulink, Python‑based lab automation
• Understanding of EMI/EMC design principles (even if pre‑compliance measurements are planned for the future)

We offer

• Real ownership: design decisions that go into actual hardware and systems
• Fast iterations with strong engineering discipline (no “mystery‑meat prototypes”)
• Close collaboration across electronics, mechanics, and software
• A growing environment where you can help shape processes, documentation, and test infrastructure
• Permanent full‑time position (40 h/week)
• 30 days annual vacation and flexible working hours
• Bike leasing, EGYM Wellpass and subsidy for the Deutschlandticket
• Complimentary beverages, company events, and professional development opportunities

Application Requirements

• Your CV
• 2–3 reference projects (e.g. schematics, PCB designs, test setups, failure analyses — anything that demonstrates how you approach engineering challenges and build solutions)
