Description
Your mission
As we continue to grow, we’re building a dedicated engineering team for an exciting new project.
What we can tell you: it is technically ambitious, built entirely from scratch, and operating in a demanding, high-stakes environment. It is the kind of work where engineering decisions genuinely matter.
We are opening this as an unsolicited / open application because the right people for this team are unlikely to be actively looking. If this sounds like you, we want to hear from you now.
What You'll Work On
The specifics remain confidential at this stage. In a first conversation, we will share more under full discretion. What we can say:
You will be working on a greenfield project The work sits at the intersection of autonomous systems, hardware, and software You will join a small, senior team where your impact is direct and immediate The environment is fast-moving, complex, and requires engineers who thrive with ambiguity
Your profile
We are looking for experienced engineers across three disciplines:
Mechanical Engineer
Structural design, actuation systems, mechanisms Manufacturing-oriented design Experience with lightweight structures or aerial systems a plus Software Engineer
Embedded systems, real-time operating systems C++ and/or Python, ideally with ROS experience Background in flight software, robotics, or safety-critical software development Systems Engineer
System architecture, requirements management Hardware/software integration Verification & Validation, ideally in certified environments
What you bring as a perfect candidate
The must-haves across all profiles:
5+ years of hands-on engineering experience in aerospace, robotics, UAV, or safety-critical systems A strong foundation in your core discipline - we care about depth Experience working in cross-functional teams where hardware and software intersect The ability to work with ambiguity, incomplete information, and evolving requirements High personal standards for quality, precision, and engineering rigour Fluent English; German is a plus As a Mechanical Engineer, you additionally bring:
Proficiency in CAD tools (CATIA, SolidWorks, or equivalent) Experience with lightweight or structural design, ideally in airborne or mobile systems Familiarity with DFM/DFA principles and working closely with manufacturing partners Knowledge of relevant material properties and joining techniques As a Software Engineer, you additionally bring:
Strong command of C++ and/or Python in embedded or real-time environments Experience with RTOS and/or ROS/ROS2 A track record in safety-critical or certified software development (e.g. DO-178C, IEC 61508) is a strong plus A mindset for writing clean, maintainable, testable code under strict constraints As a Systems Engineer, you additionally bring:
Experience in system architecture definition and requirements engineering A structured approach to V&V planning and execution Ability to bridge between mechanical, electrical, and software teams Familiarity with certification or qualification processes in complex systems What sets the perfect candidate apart:
You've built something from scratch before - not just maintained or iterated You're comfortable in an environment where not everything can be shared openly You're motivated by the challenge itself, not just the job title You ask hard questions early and take ownership without being asked
What we'll offer
A rare opportunity to shape a new business area from day one Direct influence on technology choices and system architecture A free parking space right at the office – for the days you come in. Enjoy attractive employee discounts with corporate benefits on a variety of products and services. Join the fun at our employee events and team-building activities.
