Résumé du poste

Aerospacelab in Belgium is seeking a PCB Technology Engineer to lead fabrication and assembly strategies for space-qualified boards. You will bridge PCB designers with the manufacturing supply base, ensuring designs are manufacturable and meet space-grade quality.

You will define DfM rules, review Gerber/ODB data, specify assembly techniques, support root-cause analyses, and contribute to IPC 3 compliance while coordinating with suppliers and internal teams.

Qualifications

• MSc in Electrical/Electronics Engineering or equivalent, or strong hands-on PCB experience.
• Solid understanding of PCB fabrication processes and SMT/through-hole assembly.
• Experience applying Design for Manufacturability principles to real designs.
• Ability to read PCB data (layout, stack-up, Gerbers) and communicate findings.
• Comfort negotiating with suppliers on technical topics.
• Familiarity with IPC standards (IPC-A-600, IPC-A-610, IPC-6012).
• Good English; French a plus.

Responsabilités

• Act as technical reference for PCB fabrication and assembly across avionics programs.
• Define and enforce Design for Manufacturability rules for PCB design teams.
• Review Gerber/ODB++ outputs before release, flagging manufacturability, reliability, or quality risks.
• Define and recommend component assembly techniques for space and high-reliability applications.
• Support root-cause analysis on fabrication or assembly non-conformances.
• Define inspection and acceptance criteria and support quality checks on bare boards and assembled PCBs.
• Contribute to internal standards, work instructions, and lessons-learned for PCB technology.
• Support new technology introduction from feasibility through qualification.
