Description du poste

Absolut System has been a key player in the space industry since its foundation. Our commitment to technological excellence and innovation has positioned us at the forefront of two strategic areas in the space domain:

• Advanced observation systems, enabling precise and reliable data acquisition for scientific, environmental, and defense applications;
• Cryogenic propellant storage solutions, contributing to the development of next-generation launch vehicles and in-orbit servicing missions.

We actively participate in ambitious European and international space programs, collaborating with major industrial and institutional partners.

As part of our expanding activities, we are seeking a Systems Engineer who will play a central role in ensuring the technical coherence, performance, and reliability of the solutions developed. You will be the technical authority for your projects, responsible for defining and validating system-level choices in collaboration with multidisciplinary teams (mechanical, thermal, software, etc.).

This role is ideal for candidates who thrive in high-stakes environments and are motivated by complex engineering challenges with tangible impact on space missions.

Responsibilities

• Define and manage the system architecture
• Lead the specification and allocation of system requirements across spacecraft subsystems (payloads, power, communications, thermal, etc.)
• Oversee the functional and performance analysis of the mission, including end-to-end system modeling
• Coordinate with customers, partners, subcontractors, and suppliers to ensure technical consistency
• Support the integration and validation of system interfaces and performances
• Ensure the consistency and quality of all system and project documentation
• Support major project design reviews such as System Requirements Review (SRR), Preliminary Design Review (PDR), and Critical Design Review (CDR), ensuring system compliance, maturity, and technical consistency at each stage
• Participate in risk analysis, anomaly resolution, and trade-off studies throughout the system life cycle
• Support and track the delivery and reception of equipment, ensuring alignment with system specifications and project timelines
• Interface with ground segment teams to ensure mission operations compatibility (if any)

Requirements

Master’s degree (or equivalent) in general engineering, with strong competencies in thermodynamics, mechanics, or thermal engineering

Minimum 5 years of experience in a development project as a design or study engineer

Proven experience in the space sector is essential

Experience working in multi-partner or European space programs (ESA, CNES, etc.)

Skills in risk management and trade-off analysis

Knowledge of data package structure and ESA project deliverables

Excellent interpersonal and communication skills

Desire to work in an agile SME on game-changing projects for the future of space

Fluent in English and French, both spoken and written
