Job description

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

THEWHY

We build pressure vessels and carbon structures for spaceflight. Before our hardware flies, it gets tested — and you keep the testing running. Without you, the test bench stands still.

THE WHAT

You prepare tests, help run them, and document the results. You work in the lab and at the test bench — hands-on, in a team, with real space hardware every day.

Your tasks in detail:

• Prepare and post-process the testing areas: You set up test benches and specimens, tear down after tests, and keep the testing area ready for action. → High Performance: The test bench is ready when the team needs it.
• Run and document tests: You support destructive testing and acceptance testing (NDT) and record every step cleanly. → Accountability: What was tested is documented. No gaps.
• Say what you see: Anything unusual about a specimen, the test bench, or a result — you report it right away, not when someone asks. → Candor: You raise problems before they grow.
• Support the team and infrastructure: You pitch in where needed — in the testing team and with technical infrastructure on site. → Togetherness: We win as a team.
• Learn new things: NDT methods, new test procedures, new materials — you want to grow. We'll train you. → Playfulness: Curiosity is a strength here, not a distraction.

YOUR PROFILE

• Training: Completed vocational training as a materials tester / Werkstoffprüfer (plastics, metals, or fiber composites/CFRP) or comparable technical training.
• Experience: First experience in a test lab or materials testing is a plus — not a must. What matters more: you want to learn.
• Work style: Motivated, reliable, hands‑on. You want the job done — and done right.
• Team player: You enjoy working with others and help out when things get busy.
• Languages: German and English, each at B2 minimum — one of the two confident for daily work.
• On-site: This role is 100% on‑site in Taufkirchen. The lab and test bench don't fit in a home office.

WHAT WE OFFER

• Creative freedom & responsibility:Autonomy, scope for decision-making and short implementation paths.
• Flexible working hours & remote option:You can work remotely by arrangement.
• Culinary variety:Lunch together with fresh, varied dishes every day.
• Attractive additional benefits:Choose between Deutschlandticket, EGYM-Well pass or a monthly top‑up payment card (GivveCard).
• Knowledge exchange at the highest level:Work with experienced engineers and experts from the aerospace industry.
• Dynamic environment:Excitingprojects, development opportunities and a start‑up atmosphere with agile, cross‑functional collaboration.
• Community & team spirit:Monthly blackout events for socialising, networking and exchange.
