Zusammenfassung

Rocket Factory Augsburg is seeking a LabVIEW Programming Engineer (f/m/d) to join our Software team. You will develop interfaces and real-time software for test stands used in aerospace hardware, interfacing NI data acquisition and Beckhoff systems.

You collaborate with test engineers to create intuitive LabVIEW UIs that let operators control actuators and monitor high-frequency sensor telemetry, while debugging real-time software issues to maximise test-stand availability.

Qualifikationen

• LabVIEW programming demonstrated via challenging academic projects or industry experience.
• Experience setting up data acquisition chains from sensors to NI DAQ and robust logging.
• Strong understanding of sensor signals, industrial automation, or distributed I/O; Beckhoff/EtherCAT is a plus.
• Fluent in English for daily engineering tasks and documentation.

Aufgaben
