Join our Optical Systems team and take full technical ownership for the end-to-end development of cutting-edge optical instruments for space applications. In this key role, you will drive system-level engineering from concept to qualification, ensuring performance, cost, schedule, and risk targets are met with precision.

  • Coordinate the assessment of the instrument-level compliance considering lower level compliance status
  • Generate cost, schedule, and performance projections based on the top-level system design
  • Act as the final decision authority on instrument-level design and performance
  • Provide technical support to ensure the design integrity and convergence
  • Provide technical contributions to Project Management for balancing technological needs versus non-technical, interests, e.g. for time- and cost-planning or for coordination and support of subcontractors
  • Provide technical contributions to project risk management
  • Manage and lead project- or instrument-level technical reviews
  • Implement and ensure control of the System Engineering processes within the project

Your Qualifications

  • University (TU), polytechnic degree or PhD in Physics or Engineering, preferably with major focus on Optical Systems
  • Proven Systems Engineer or Technical Manager experience on scientific optical instruments (interferometers, spectrometers, telescopes)
  • Ideally, experience in the development logic of Space Instruments for Earth Observation or Astronomy in Phases 0 to B2, as well as significant H/W experience in the Phases C and D
  • Experience in engineering economic, scost/schedule projections, resource planning, risk analysis
  • Organised and structured task approach, experience in technical coordination of a multidisciplinary engineering team

Skills & Competencies

  • Strong team leadership and collaboration skills
  • Excellent conceptual, analytical, and system thinking abilities
