Beschreibung der Stelle

Have you always been fascinated by the space industry?
Are you attracted by a day-to-day work that is characterized by varied tasks between maintenance, modernization and customer contact?
Do you want a working environment in which professional passion and a strong team structure go hand in hand?
Then you've come to the right place!
To ensure that all instruments and systems function correctly, a satellite must be tested before it begins its mission in space.
This is where our Space Simulation Department comes into play.
We simulate the environmental conditions of space (pressure, extreme temperatures, acoustics, vibration and more) for satellites. In this environment, our customers can put their systems through their paces and verify their function.
Among other things, the team is responsible for the operational readiness of these systems. We ensure the operation of the test facilities through maintenance, servicing, error analysis and rectification as well as the modernization of the electrotechnical systems.
In addition, we dimension customer-specific test setups and carry out test preparation activities in cooperation with our customers. We are also represented in operations and operate the systems in phases in 3-shift operation.
Become part of a great team and join our Space Division!
