Job description

About Us

Liftero builds rocket engines for new space era spacecrafts. With our first units already flying on SpaceX rideshare missions, we’re bringing BOOSTER - our next-gen thruster to small satellite missions.

We are an ambitious team of engineers and experts in field of propulsion and space systems. We move fast, stay focused, and keep things light. It’s a high-energy environment, but also a rewarding one - at Liftero, you’ll tackle meaningful challenges with people you actually enjoy working with.

We are looking for mission-driven people to join our team - builders, problem-solvers, and curious minds who want to shape the future of space mobility and see their work make it to orbit.

Position Overview

As an Electronic Engineer at Liftero, you’ll play a key role in designing, developing, and testing electronic systems that will ultimately fly to space. You’ll work on upgrading existing designs and creating new ones from the ground up.

In space hardware, every detail matters - a single mistake can risk the entire mission. That’s why we put a lot of focus on defining solid requirements, grounded in both industry standards and Liftero’s own experience and best practices. The final design is just the tip of the iceberg - it’s built on deep technical preparation and careful planning.

While we believe that the better the preparation, the fewer iterations are needed, we also know iteration is part of the process. You’ll be involved in shaping that process, making it the best possible.

Your Daily Impact

• Define requirements and design specifications for new circuits or improvements to existing ones
• Evaluate trade-offs and industry standards to choose the best engineering solutions
• Simulate and validate circuits using digital design tools
• Design schematics and PCBs using professional EDA software
• Create technical and manufacturing documentation to support production
• Assemble and test prototypes, including environmental and functional testing
• Collaborate closely with mechanical engineers and product managers in cross-functional teams

Is This You?

If the points below sound like you - we’d love to talk.

• Solid understanding of analog and digital electronics, as well as embedded systems
• Experience in developing designs from well-defined requirements to production-ready hardware
• Proficiency with EDA tools (especially Altium Designer) and circuit simulation software
• Strong analytical thinking, problem-solving, and decision-making skills
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with experience working in cross-functional teams
• Familiarity with version control systems (GIT)
• Space industry experience is a strong plus

Perks & Advantages

• Private healthcare

What It's Like to Work With Us

Working at Liftero is meaningful, fast-paced, and human. We’re not trying to copy corporate culture or pretend that work is your second home - we respect your time, your life outside of work, and the fact that we’re all just people. If you're having a tough day, say it - we’ll work it out. If you’re in flow and want to build through the night, we trust you to manage your own time.

Building serious space tech takes focus, dedication, and real effort. It can be demanding - but it’s also where you’ll grow, both professionally and personally.

We’ve created a unique company culture that’s shaped by mutual respect and a shared drive to build things that fly. Whether you’re loud and all-in, or more quiet and independent - there’s space for you here.

We work in our own project management framework, refined over years of iteration. It helps us move quickly, stay flexible, and give every team member a real voice in shaping the final product.
