Zusammenfassung

Auterion in Munich seeks a Senior Electronics Engineer to lead the design and development of avionics for next‑generation drone platforms. You will own electronic modules such as flight controllers, sensors and vision systems, guiding PCB development from concept through manufacturing readiness.

You will collaborate with test, manufacturing and product teams to ensure robust hardware that scales to volume production.

Qualifikationen

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical or Electronics Engineering.
• 4+ years of experience in PCB design and electronic product development, including prototyping, layout, and driving products from concept through production.
• Proven expertise in high-density and mixed-signal PCB design, with broad understanding of signal and power integrity.
• Hands-on experience with PCB verification and testing processes, covering signal integrity analysis and EMC troubleshooting.
• Proficiency with Altium Designer is highly desirable.
• Experience with high power applications, ESCs and lithium batteries is an advantage.
• Hands-on, solution-oriented mindset with a proactive approach to problem-solving and the ability to address technical challenges independently.
• Experience collaborating in cross-functional hardware/software teams.
• Excellent problem-solving, communication (English), and project management skills.

Aufgaben

• Design, prototype, and validate advanced avionics PCBs, sensors, and electronic modules for drone platforms, driving concepts from initial ideation through detailed design and manufacturing readiness.
• Plan and execute comprehensive PCB and product verification activities, including test strategy definition, execution, and documentation; perform electrical and mechanical validation such as EMI/EMC compliance testing, thermal cycling, mechanical shock testing, and HALT analysis.
• Produce and maintain technical documentation, including design concepts, schematics and CAD drawings, bills of materials (BOMs), assembly instructions, and repair manuals.
• Collaborate closely with test engineering, manufacturing, and production teams to ensure smooth transition of hardware designs from development to volume production.
