Jobbeschreibung

As our AIT Technician (f/m/d), you will be at the forefront of manufacturing, integrating, and testing advanced space hardware. This role is very hands‑on, as you will be building up our ground support equipment (GSE), supporting engineers and campaigns, and sharing good practices with assembly and integration. The role expects expertise in using precision tools and equipment, and involves the design, testing, and optimization of devices and processes used for production and validation of Dcubed’s innovative technologies.

We are looking for a person skilled in craftmanship, and comfortable with metal work and working on profiles. The technical challenges require strong problem‑solving skills and the ability to take responsibility for workshop operations and implement effective solutions. If you’re a skilled technician with strong attention to detail, structured working methods and the ability to deliver high quality, this role provides a unique opportunity to contribute to exciting space missions.

The role requires good English skills (German is a plus), and eligibility to work in Germany.

Please note that this role is aimed at candidates with professional qualification and/or vocational training education. If you have a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree, you may be best suited for our other roles.
