Job description

Your mission

Join our Munich team as the technical throughline for our equipment portfolio, focusing primarily on space valves (cryogenic, high-pressure, solenoid, and motorized). You will own the requirement and qualification thread from customer briefing to flight hardware:

• Requirements-Based Engineering: Lead technical exchanges with launch vehicle and satellite customers to translate mission constraints into actionable equipment specifications.
• Cross-Functional Anchor: Work daily at the core of Design Engineering, Test Engineering, and QA to align technical baselines, resolve trade-offs, and maintain a tidy technical baseline.
• Own Product Assurance (PA) Documentation: Author and own the majority of development PA deliverables. including FMECA, hazard analyses, compliance matrices, verification control documents (VCDs), and qualification data packages.
• System & Component Performance Sizing: Establish operational boundaries and performance budgets across fluid, thermal, and mechanical domains (e.g., flow capacities, pressure drops, actuation dynamics, thermal margins) to provide solid engineering baselines for the design team.
• Drive Product V&V: Define the qualification logic, test procedures, and pass/fail criteria to ensure every customer requirement is rigorously validated.
• Hands-on Lab Verification: Support functional checkouts, pressure tests, and cryogenic qualification campaigns on the bench alongside test and assembly crews.
• Pragmatic Automation: Use Python and modern AI tools to streamline data processing, automate traceability, and cut repetitive engineering documentation.

Your profile

• Degree in Aerospace, Mechanical, Systems Engineering, or a related field.
• At least 1-2 years of practical experience in systems engineering, fluid systems, or hardware qualification (aerospace or regulated industry preferred).
• Proven hands-on hardware background: Direct experience assembling, troubleshooting, or testing physical fluid hardware and test setups.
• Solid grasp of fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, and pressurized equipment.
• Collaborative mindset with strong communication skills for customer meetings and internal cross-team alignment (Design, Test, QA).
• Working knowledge of Python or scripting; proactive in using modern AI tools critically to multiply engineering output without compromising technical rigor.
• Practical experience with modern requirements management tools and frameworks (e.g., Flow, Polarion, Jama, or similar digital engineering suites).
• Fluency in English (German is a plus).

We offer

• Immediate and flexible start
• Permanent full-time position (40 h/week)
• Attractive salary package
• Start your \"Side Quest\": We support passion projects - whether it's building new tools, test stands, or prototypes outside your main scope.
• Shape our growth: As a fast-scaling company, we offer the opportunity to actively build structures and define our future path.
• 30 days annual vacation and flexible working hours
• Bike leasing, EGYM Wellpass and subsidy for the Deutschlandticket
• Complimentary beverages, company events, and professional development opportunities

About Us

We are deltaVision GmbH - a young, ambitious high-tech company based in Munich, driving the future of in-space mobility and infrastructure.

Since our founding in 2022, we have been developing, manufacturing, and qualifying advanced fluid control systems for the aerospace industry and H₂ aviation. Our expertise spans cryogenic and high-pressure propulsion systems as well as next-generation orbital refueling technologies, including couplers and fully integrated refueling systems designed for the harsh environment of space.

With our deep knowledge of fluid control for space systems, we are shaping the space economy towards refuelable and reusable spacecraft. We enable longer mission lifetimes, greater operational flexibility, and entirely new architectures for sustainable space operations.

We are rethinking spaceflight - enabling a future where spacecraft are not disposable, but reusable, refuelable, and built to operate sustainably in orbit.

What sets us apart?

• Innovative products enabling next-generation space infrastructure
• Exceptional cost efficiency through optimized design and manufacturing
• Rapid development and delivery cycles beyond traditional industry standards
