Join a pioneer in the satellite industry, owning payload testing in their brand-new, state of the art satellite manufacturing and test facility in the heart of Luxembourg. This isn't a role where you follow a 20-year-old manual; you will help define the testing standards, own the lab environment, and see your hardware integrated onto a rocket.

Key Details

• Role: Payload Test Engineer (Electrical Focus)
• Location: Full-time, On-site in Luxembourg (full relocation support provided)
• Travel: Occasional to United States
• Salary: €75,000 - €110,000 (depending on experience)

What’s In It For You?

• Rapid Career Progression: This role presents a clear pathway into Test Strategy and Systems Engineering. You’ll work directly with the Payload Architect, giving you exposure and input to high-level design decisions
• Travel For Work: You’ll get to spend time in Los Angeles for physical satellite integration (AIT) and travel to world-renowned launch sites to watch your work reach orbit
• Full Relocation Support: You will receive a comprehensive relocation package if applicable, ensuring a seamless and stress free transition
• Join Industry Leaders: This company, and specifically, project, is at the forefront of the satellite communications industry. All equipment, facilities and work is truly cutting edge giving you invaluable experience and opportunity
• Ownership & Autonomy: This is an ideal move for a motivated engineer who thrives on autonomy. You will own testing processes in a dynamic environment without the red tape of traditional "Big Aero" corporate environments

Key Responsibilities

• Hands-On Testing: Lead verification and payload testing in a new, state of the art lab
• Independent Troubleshooting: Be the "first responder" for complex technical issues, ensuring hardware and software combine efficiently under pressure
• International Integration: Drive the physical assembly and testing (AIT) during 1-2 week stints in Los Angeles
• Automation: Contribute to moving the needle from manual checks to software-driven efficiency by implementing Python/scripting for test cycles
• Strategic Collaboration: Partner with the Payload Architect to define hardware interfaces and long-term test methodologies
