Integration and Test Engineer

Optimus Search; Berlin; Vor Ort; EUR 70.000 - 100.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

Optimus Search seeks an Integration & Test Engineer to ensure subsystems such as perception, tracking, radar/RF, and controls integrate and perform reliably under real-world conditions.

You will design test plans, validate end-to-end behaviour, isolate root causes of faults, and verify performance against operational requirements before deployment. Onsite work in Berlin and NATO citizenship are mandatory.

Qualifikationen

• 5+ years’ experience in system integration, test engineering, or validation of complex electro-mechanical or embedded systems.
• Proven experience designing test plans, executing validation, and tracking performance metrics.
• Strong understanding of hardware–software interfaces, data protocols, and end-to-end system behaviour.
• Proficiency with test equipment, measurement tools, and data analysis; scripting capability (Python preferred).
• Experience testing real-time, embedded, or sensor-integrated systems in operational or field environments.
• Systematic approach to debugging and root-cause analysis; clear technical communication.
• Availability for onsite work in Berlin; NATO member state citizenship.
• Experience integrating or testing radar, RF, imaging, or perception systems.
• Familiarity with multi-sensor fusion, tracking, or autonomous control workflows.
• Hands-on field-testing experience in outdoor or demanding environments.
• Knowledge of environmental, EMI/EMC, or safety compliance standards.
• Background in defence, aerospace, robotics, or industrial sensor systems.

Aufgaben

• System Integration: Assemble and integrate hardware–software subsystems; ensure interfaces, data protocols, and timing align across perception, RF, tracking, and control modules.
• Test Design & Execution: Develop comprehensive test strategies, procedures, and benchmarks covering functional, performance, environmental, and edge-case scenarios.
• Validation & Verification: Verify system behaviour against requirements — including detection range, tracking stability, latency, accuracy, and sensor fusion integrity.
• Fault Isolation & Debugging: Diagnose integration issues, performance deviations, and intermittent failures; trace root causes across hardware, firmware, and software layers.
• Field & Operational Testing: Support outdoor trials; validate performance under real conditions — weather, interference, clutter, and dynamic aerial scenarios.
• Performance & Compliance: Measure and report metrics; ensure latency, reliability, and environmental hardening meet operational and regulatory standards.
• Documentation & Feedback: Maintain test records, logs, and reports; communicate findings clearly to design teams to drive improvements.

Jobbeschreibung

We are seeking an Integration & Test Engineer to ensure our multi-disciplinary subsystems — perception, tracking, radar/RF, and controls — integrate seamlessly and perform reliably under real-world conditions. You will design and execute test plans, validate end-to-end behaviour, isolate root causes of faults, and verify performance against operational requirements. Your work will directly confirm system readiness, robustness, and compliance with specifications before deployment. Onsite work in Berlin and NATO member state citizenship are mandatory.
