Meyandy LLC; München; Hybrid; EUR 90.000 - 130.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

Hypersonica seeks an experienced Systems Engineer to own and evolve its Electronic Warfare (EW) architecture. You will coordinate ES/EA/EP functions, manage system requirements, and drive design choices across airborne platforms and payloads with a hands-on, autonomous approach.

Ideal candidates bring 8+ years in EW, RF, or mission-critical systems, with strong MBSE and model-based design discipline to deliver robust, traceable system capabilities.

Qualifikationen

• 8+ years of experience delivering complex Electronic Warfare, RF and mission-critical systems.
• Strong background in systems architecture, requirements development, verification and validation.

Aufgaben

• Own the system architecture of Hypersonica's EW capability across ES/EA/EP.
• Define and manage EW system requirements with full traceability.
• Lead the development of EW architectures, budgets, interfaces and mission integrations across platforms.
• Conduct threat and environment analyses to assess system effectiveness.
• Lead integration of RF sensors, receivers, antennas, and processing functions.
• Develop MBSE artefacts and ensure traceability from requirements to validation.

Jobbeschreibung

**Help Build Europe's Hypersonic Capability** At **Hypersonica**, we’re redefining what’s possible in European defence technology. We exist to deliver speed, resilience, and technological independence at a pace that sets a new standard. We are a small, elite team working on problems that matter, and solving them fast. By joining **Hypersonica**, you’re not stepping into a predefined role. You’re joining a talent dense environment where every individual shapes the direction of the company. Our philosophy is to hire a small number of exceptional people with broad, deep technical capability, strong judgement, and the ability to operate autonomously. We hire for talent, not rigid boxes. This role represents a business need, but the way it evolves will be shaped by the individual. If you’ve achieved what others said was impossible, or you bring a unique combination of skills that doesn’t fit a traditional mould, we want to hear from you. The work you do here directly contributes to Europe’s technological independence. **What you'll do** * Own the system architecture of Hypersonica's Electronic Warfare (EW) capability, ensuring electronic support (ES), electronic attack (EA), and electronic protection (EP) functions operate as a coherent and mission-effective system.* Define, maintain, and manage EW system requirements, ensuring full traceability from operational needs through system architecture, subsystem allocation, verification, and validation.* Lead the development of EW system architectures, performance budgets, interface definitions, and mission integrations across airborne platforms and payloads.* Conduct threat, signal, and electromagnetic environment analyses to assess system effectiveness against representative adversary capabilities and operational conditions.* Lead the integration of RF sensors, receivers, transmitters, antenna systems, signal processing functions, mission computers, and platform interfaces into a coherent operational capability.* Define and oversee system-level modelling, simulation, laboratory testing, ground trials, and flight trials, using evidence-based analysis to drive design improvements and risk reduction.* Produce and maintain critical systems engineering artefacts including system specifications, interface control documents (ICDs), verification strategies, test plans, and design review materials.* Apply model-based systems engineering (MBSE) principles to ensure traceability between requirements, architectures, analyses, verification activities, and operational outcomes.* Identify and mitigate system-level risks, particularly around electromagnetic performance, interoperability, survivability, cybersecurity, verification, and platform integration.* Act as the technical authority for EW system engineering, working across RF, software, hardware, mission systems, cybersecurity, safety, and platform engineering disciplines to deliver robust operational capability. **Who you are** * An experienced Systems Engineer with 8+ years of experience delivering complex Electronic Warfare, RF, mission systems, avionics, aerospace, defence, or other mission-critical systems.* Strong background in systems architecture, requirements development, requirements decomposition, verification, and validation throughout the engineering lifecycle.* Deep understanding of Electronic Warfare concepts, including electronic support (ES), electronic attack (EA), electronic protection (EP), threat systems, and electromagnetic spectrum operations.* Experience integrating RF sensors, receivers, transmitters, antennas, signal processing systems, and mission computers into operational platforms.* Strong knowledge of electromagnetic environments, system performance analysis, modelling, simulation, and test methodologies.* Familiar with MBSE approaches and capable of applying systems engineering rigour to complex, multidis...
