Greater Munich Metropolitan Area, Deutschland AVILUS Vollzeit 60.000 € - 120.000 € pro Jahr

Description

Do you want to work on a New Class of Drones? Our product universe spans three different platforms with maximum take-off weights of up to 1000 kg characteristic dimension of 8 m: the hexacopter Grille for medical evacuation, the multi-role rotorcraft Wespe for logistics and support operations, as well as the fixed-wing drone Bussard for surveillance and intelligence missions. All systems are powered by RasCore, our highly redundant, military-grade avionics system for safe operations within EASA's Specific Category. Three aircraft, one mission: to bridge the gap between small UAVs and traditional manned systems.

  • Application of relevant regulations(e.g., EASA SORA) and preparation of required documentation and evidence
  • Coordination with authorities, partners, and stakeholders in Germany and abroad
  • Support in change management processes (review of change requests, documentation in GitLab, coordination with internal teams)
  • Close collaboration with internal stakeholders (Flight Operations, Privilege Manager, Safety Manager) and external partners

  • Preferably several years of relevant professional experience in the areas of flight authorizations, ICAO, EU and EASA regulations, drone operations, flight operations, or governmental affairs
  • Knowledge of ICAO, EU, and EASA regulations, particularly SORA. Possession of recognized training certificates(e.g., from EASA Training Organizations or other relevant UAS/drone licenses)would be a bonus.
  • Good analytical, structured, and independent working style
  • Excellent teamwork, communication, and coordination skills, also in an international context
  • Preferably experience with tools such as GitLab, Polarion and dipul map tool
  • Fluent in German and English, both spoken and written
