Senior Systems Engineer for Space Mechanisms (f/m/d)


Nengineering specializes in the development of on-board mechanisms for spacecraft for commercial and for science missions in Europe and the US.

Based on technical requirements we develop creative design ideas, detail them to thorough concept designs and select the most promising concept, which then is refined by numerical simulation and optimisation of its dynamic, thermal and functional behaviour to achieve outstanding performance. Comprehensive documentation is produced for description and production of the mechanism. Our production partners produce the parts which we then assemble, entirely test and deliver to the customer. All our work is performed to space engineering standards.

As a senior systems engineer for space mechanisms you will lead complex development projects as a technical expert. Your responsibilities include

  • Close collaboration with customers and suppliers on engineering topics and overseeing the technical goals
  • Finding efficient technical solutions
  • Establishing of mechanical designs using 3D CAD (Siemens NX)
  • Structural and thermal analyses (Simcenter 3D, Nastran, Ansys, Systema)
  • Documentation of mechanism designs and analysis results
  • Generation of manufacturing drawings and definitions
  • Coordination and supervision of production, assembly and testing
  • Support of bidding activities with concepts, estimates, and technical inputs

As a senior systems engineer you have a passion for high‑quality engineering, and are willing to commit to challenging long-term development projects, and you have

  • A Master’s degree (or equivalent) in mechanical, thermal, structural or similar engineering fields
  • 5+ years of experience in development in a high tech engineering field
  • Good communication skills
  • Confident handling of a CAD and an analysis tool
  • Experience in drafting and assembly design

At nengineering

  • you will develop innovative high performance mechatronic devices for space
  • you work in a focused environment, dedicated to bringing your product to peak performance
  • you will lead technical developments over their full development cycle from the bidding phase until the delivery of the products
  • you receive guidance and mentoring from highly experienced space engineers
Our SME provides social benefits that go above and beyond the usual standard.
