WHAT YOU'LL DO:

• Craft electronic system, circuit, and hardware designs that push the boundaries of what's possible.
• Seamlessly navigate schematic capture, component selection, and PCB layout.
• Apply your practical hands-on experience to build, modify, and debug electronic hardware.
• Leverage intermediate software development skills (embedded and scripting) to ensure seamless integration.
• Infuse a positive, energetic, and self-driven attitude into every project.
YOUR IMPACT:
As a pivotal member the team, your responsibilities include:
• Conceiving, designing, and implementing a comprehensive testing architecture to validate avionics subsystems (power control, communications, and computer modules).
• Creating an automated testing setup in both hardware and software to support development, qualification, and acceptance test campaigns.
• Collaborating with subsystem design teams to enhance testability of flight modules.
• Assisting in developmental test campaigns, including radiation test coordination.
• Establishing manufacturing and acceptance test processes for the recurring test team's use.
• Maintaining and managing test data to uphold data integrity.

WHAT SETS YOU APART:

• Familiarity with build-for-test design and automated testing principles.
• Previous engagement with testing equipment, especially in the context of digital interfaces.
• Knowledge of GHz RF, high-power (~2kW), and/or high-speed protocols (e.g., ETH, LVDS).
• Exposure to spacecraft electronic standards (ECSS, IPC, ASTM) and software development proficiency (C++, Java).
• Comfort with scripting languages (Python, Lua, Labview) and data management.
• Understanding of radiation effects and testing methodologies (TID & SEE).
• Insights into the space environment, hardware product assurance techniques, and qualification processes.
• Aptitude for crafting and maintaining procedures for MAIT teams.
• Prior usage of Altium or similar ECAD tools.

WHAT AWAITS YOU:

• Pioneering the development of a revolutionary modular flight avionics system, driving new horizons in space exploration.
• Contributing to landmark missions to the Moon and beyond.
• Taking on a pivotal role in a forward-looking, revenue-generating company with a strong technical focus and rapid development pace.
• Collaborating closely with avionics domain experts, expanding your knowledge across spacecraft subsystems.
• Enjoying substantial engineering freedom, shaping a fresh architecture from the ground up.
• Embracing the opportunity in Luxembourg, a cosmopolitan and welcoming country at the heart of Europe.

YOUR LAUNCHPAD:

Base of operations: Luxembourg, with occasional travel.
Contract Type: Full-time.
Experience: 3-5 years in relevant fields preferred.
