System Engineer

As a System Engineer you will actively design, build and test new concepts of plasma propulsion systems, closely collaborating with several physicists and engineers in the Innovation team. You will be involved in making proof-of-concept systems of the new company products, validating them and preparing the documentation, as well as creating the company IP elements. You will work on the projects covering variety of engineering and scientific disciplines, ranging from chemistry and elementary physics, to electronics and thermal design., * Basic simulation using existing tools: electronic circuits, thermal;

• Breadboard design of electronics (power & signal) for the propulsion systems;
• Assembly and experimental testing of the propulsion systems using vacuum setups, performance characterization and enhancement;
• Multidisciplinary testing of various system elements;
• Coordination of projects within the Innovation team;
• Document writing and reporting.

You are expected to have a good understanding of electronics, covering basic breadboard design and prototyping/debugging. We therefore expect you to have an experience in either industrial system design or DIY projects with electronic components. Basic embedded programming skills (Arduino or generic uC) would be a big plus. You will directly work on the prototypes you create, and we expect that you have excellent manual skills and pride in what you do., * PhD or Master in applied physics, aerospace system engineering or general engineering;

• Solid understanding of electronics, ability to create test boards and simple control systems;
• RF and power electronics experience is a plus;
• Ability to learn fast and adjust to constantly changing environment within the Innovation team;
• Good skills in precise handwork and assembling;
• Knowledge of aerospace systems.
