System Engineer for Exploration, In Space Transportation and Servicing (m/f/d)

OHB SE; Bremen; Vor Ort; EUR 60.000 - 90.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

OHB SE in Germany (Bremen) is seeking a Master-level aerospace engineer to support the Lead System Engineer for Phase A/B1 studies and to coordinate inputs from engineering departments and subcontractors. You will drive trade-offs to define mission architecture and lead platform and subsystem design across satellite and subsystem levels.

Responsibilities include MBSE support, TRL assessments by end of Phase B1, and defining Work Breakdown Structures for later phases, with a focus on cost

Qualifikationen

• Master-level degree in aerospace engineering with a focus on space systems.
• Knowledge of exploration, in-space transportation and servicing missions.
• Competencies in space mission design, satellite systems engineering and spacecraft subsystem design.
• Flexibility to work in international teams and tight schedules.
• High motivation, proactive working approach and strong sense of responsibility.
• Excellent communication, presentation and documentation skills.
• Fluency in English (spoken and written).
• German language proficiency is ideal.

Aufgaben

• Support the Lead System Engineer for the Phase A/B1 study.
• Coordinate technical inputs from specialist engineering departments and individual subcontractors.
• Execute trade-offs and analyses to define the mission and system architecture.
• Lead the parts of the platform and subsystem system design as an architect, including deriving and maintaining requirements from satellite to subsystem level.
• Support MBSE activities for the mission.
• Contribute to the assessment of the satellite development approach to ensure the target Technology Readiness Level (TRL) by the end of Phase B1.
• Support the definition of the overall project breakdown structure for phases B2, C/D, and E1 through in-orbit commissioning.
• Assist in developing the programme plan for the satellite across phases B2, C/D, and E1 up to in-orbit calibration and validation.
• Support the creation of a project implementation schedule for the platform, aligned with the overall programme planning.
• Analyse and assess potential cost drivers for the platform.
• Support the identification and evaluation of technical and programmatic risks, including cost, schedule, and feasibility drivers. Support the definition and implementation of risk mitigation measures for the platform.
