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

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 (stackup 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
