    Deine Rolle im Team

    • Here at The Exploration Company, we are developing, producing, and operating Nyx, a modular and reusable space orbital vehicle that can eventually be refuelled in orbit and that can carry cargo - and potentially humans in the longer run.
    • We are developing the avionics system of a rocket engine powered by electric pumps. The team is responsible for the design, integration, testing, and qualification of the engine electronics and embedded software.
    • We are looking for an Senior Electronics Hardware Test & Qualification Engineer to help structure, execute, and industrialize our electronics test activities. This role is intended for someone who is both rigorous in test definition and reporting, and hands-on in the lab.
    • The objective is to help mature our electronics hardware from prototype bring-up to qualified and deliverable units by defining test strategies, preparing test campaigns, building test means, executing tests, analyzing results, and producing clear verification evidence.
    • We are looking for someone who enjoys the interface between engineering design and real hardware testing. The ideal candidate is rigorous enough to define proper test strategies and qualification evidence, but practical enough to build a test adapter, debug a signal on an oscilloscope, and improve a lab setup.
    • This person should be comfortable working in a fast-moving development environment where hardware is still evolving, tests need to be structured, and technical issues must be solved pragmatically. The role requires both engineering discipline and hands-on ownership.
    • Define, structure, and maintain electronics test strategies for ECU, inverter electronics, and future control boards, from development testing to qualification and acceptance.
    • Translate requirements into test cases, procedures, acceptance criteria, and verification evidence, ensuring clear requirements-to-test traceability.
    • Prepare, organize, and execute electronics test campaigns, including board bring-up, functional testing, hardware/software integration, inverter testing, and power HIL.
    • Design, build, and maintain hands-on test means such as test boards, breakout boards, harnesses, adapters, loads, and instrumentation setups.
    • Analyze test results, write clear test reports, document deviations, and support qualification or delivery reviews.
    • Support hardware debugging and anomaly investigations using schematics, measurements, logs, and lab instrumentation.
    • Improve test bench robustness, repeatability, safety, configuration control, and automation.
    • Work closely with electronics, power electronics, embedded software, control, mechanical/thermal, supplier, and test teams to ensure avionics hardware is testable, integrated, and deliverable.

    Unsere Erwartungen an dich

    Qualifikationen

    • Ability to read schematics, PCB documentation, datasheets, interface specifications, and requirements.
    • Ability to design or assemble simple test boards, harnesses, breakout boards, adapters, or custom lab setups.
    • Good understanding of embedded electronics interfaces such as CAN, Ethernet, SPI, I2C, UART, PWM, ADC/DAC, discrete I/O, and power interfaces.

    Erfahrung

    • Hands-on experience in electronics hardware testing, board bring-up, debugging, validation, or qualification.
    • Experience preparing test plans, test procedures, acceptance criteria, and test reports.
    • Practical experience with lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, power supplies, electronic loads, DAQs, multimeters, logic analyzers, CAN tools, or power analyzers.
    • Experience with test automation using Python, MATLAB, LabVIEW, or similar tools would be a strong plus.
    • Experience with aerospace, automotive, defense, rail, robotics, energy, or another safety-critical hardware environment would be highly appreciated.

    Unser Angebot

    • Relocation assistance is provided for those willing to relocate including visa sponsorship where applicable.
