Senior Spacecraft Systems Engineer – Avionics & Electrical Systems (m/f/d)

Deine Mission

As part of our Avionics & Software team in Munich, you will help define and mature the avionics and electrical systems of our spacecraft platforms. You will translate mission and spacecraft-level needs into clear requirements, interfaces and equipment decisions. Working closely with our Systems Architects and specialist teams in electronics, embedded software and controls, you will ensure that avionics equipment and subsystems form a coherent and verifiable overall system. This is a systems engineering role with a strong technical focus. You are not expected to be the implementation expert for every avionics domain.

Your role will include

• Define, manage and maintain spacecraft avionics and electrical system requirements.
• Coordinate interfaces between spacecraft equipment, electronics, embedded software, control systems and higher-level spacecraft functions.
• Support avionics architecture development together with Systems Architects and technical specialists.
• Perform and document equipment and make-or-buy trade studies, for example for OBCs, PCDUs, solar arrays, sensors, communication equipment and remote I/O.
• Translate selected equipment into clear electrical, data and software interface requirements.
• Develop and maintain interface control documents, architecture descriptions and verification concepts.
• Coordinate technical topics with suppliers and assess c
