You will be the technical owner of our satellite platform- the person who turns mission needs into a buildable, testable and reliable system, and who is not afraid to go hands-on when reality hits hardware.Own the platform technical direction: define and drive the system architecture, requirements, interfaces and budgets to ensure a coherent end-to-end platform.Make the right engineering calls: lead trade-offs across mass, power, thermal, data, RF and reliability to converge on a design the team can actually deliver.Bring systems to the lab: define the verification approach and actively support AIT and test campaigns (planning, procedures, acceptance criteria, reports).Be the “go-to” technical problem solver: troubleshoot anomalies, unblock the team, and push issues to closure with pragmatic engineering judgement.Connect specialists into one system: align subsystem/domain experts across departments, ensuring interfaces, assumptions and decisions are consistent and documented.Enable execution with structure: work with a Project Manager who supports planning and delivery tracking,



so you can focus on technical leadership and hands-on execution.On-site rolework from our facilities in Porto do Molle (Nigrán, Spain), close to the hardware, the lab and the engineering team.Engineering degree in Aerospace / Industrial / Telecommunications / Electronics (or similar).7+ years in space systems engineering, with participation in flight projects.Proven hands-on experience in system/subsystem integration and verification (AIT).Strong background in:Requirements engineering & traceabilitySystem architecture & interface management (ICDs)V&V; / test logic (procedures, reports, anomaly tracking)Risk & reliability methods and engineering marginsSpace standards (ECSS or equivalent)Comfortable working across structures, avionics, ADCS, thermal, propulsion, SW/FDIR and operations.Mindset/skills: technical leadership, autonomy, clear communication, prioritization, ability to move from high
