Work in an international, agile team creating the future of autonomous systems
Grow your career in a expanding and ambitious engineering team
Build innovative products using state-of-the-art technologies in AI, robotics, and autonomy
Benefit from a steep learning curve and continuous development
Enjoy team events and a strong, collaborative culture

Build and integrate real-world robotic and counter-UAV systems that operate reliably outside the lab.

You will own the mechanical integration of sensors, electronics, embedded computers, and vehicle-mounted hardware, transforming concepts into fully assembled and operational systems. From CAD design and supplier coordination to hands-on assembly and field integration, you will ensure our platforms are robust, maintainable, and ready for deployment.

This is a highly practical role for someone who enjoys building, testing, troubleshooting, and delivering complete systems rather than working within narrow engineering boundaries.

What You'll Do

Design mechanical assemblies, brackets, enclosures, and mounting solutions using CAD.
Produce manufacturing drawings and documentation for fabrication and assembly.
Select, source, and order mechanical and electromechanical components.
Coordinate directly with suppliers, machine shops, and manufacturing partners.
Design and integrate systems containing sensors, embedded computers, PCBs, power electronics, and communication equipment.
Assemble prototypes and production hardware independently.
Support integration of payloads onto ground vehicles and robotic platforms.
Work closely with robotics, perception, electronics, and systems engineers to translate requirements into deployable hardware.
Identify integration issues early and proactively drive solutions.
Participate in testing and validation activities, ensuring hardware survives real operational conditions.
Continuously improve designs based on field feedback and lessons learned.

State Certified Technician (Staatlich geprüfter Techniker) in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics or Industrial Engineering, or
Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics or a related field.
Equivalent technical qualifications with strong hands-on industry experience will also be considered.
Strong mechanical design experience.
Professional CAD experience (SolidWorks, Fusion 360,Inventor, CATIA, Siemens NX orsimilar).
Creation of detailed 2D manufacturing drawings.
Experience integrating electronics into mechanical systems.
Hands-on prototyping, assembly, and workshop experience.
Understanding of manufacturing methods such as CNC machining, sheet metal fabrication, 3D printing, and aluminium structures.
Ability to work independently with minimal process and supervision.
Experience in small companies, startups, robotics, automotive, aerospace, UAV, or defense environments.

UAV, robotics, automotive, or defense experience.
Basic electronics knowledge (power distribution, PCBs, connectors, sensors).
Environmental and vibration considerations for deployed systems.
Supplier and manufacturing management experience.
Experience integrating cameras, radars, GNSS, antennas, or other sensor systems.

Candidates who have personally designed, sourced, assembled, and tested complete systems will stand out.

Builder mentality: you ship working solutions, not theoretical concepts
Hands-on ownership: you proactively solve problems, even outside your direct scope
Field-driven mindset: you care about what survives real operations, not “lab perfect”
High quality bar: you aim for reliability, determinism, and clarity in your engineering
Startup drive: you execute fast despite ambiguity, and adapt quickly
Mission alignment: genuine motivation to work on defense-relevant, safety-critical robotics
Nationality of a NATO member nation or close ally is required
