Here at The Exploration Company, we are developing, producing, and operating Nyx, a modular and reusable space orbital vehicle that can eventually be refuelled in orbit and that can carry cargo - and potentially humans in the longer run.
We are building advanced test platforms that support the development and validation of cutting-edge aerospace systems. We are looking for a passionate and experienced Automation/Electrical Engineer to join our HiL/EGSE Engineering Team in Munich. You will contribute to the design, development, and integration of complex Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL) platforms, supporting the verification and validation of avionics and electrical subsystems.
These platforms are composed of hundreds of electrical and electronic components (both COTS and custom-made) and must meet CE marking and Machinery Directive compliance. Your work will have a direct impact on the performance, reliability, and safety of critical aerospace systems.

In your role as an Automation/Electrical Engineer for HiL Platform Development, you will be responsible for the following:

• Lead the compliant design of electrical schematics for both power and signal circuits
• Define and implement safety devices, protection mechanisms, and power management solutions
• Be responsible for the overall electrical design of the HiL test laboratory
• Develop and support electrical setups for component and subsystem testing — ranging from simple rigs to highly integrated systems
• Ensure compliance with industry standards, CE marking, and applicable electrical safety regulations
• Collaborate with a highly skilled cross-functional team (software, simulation, mechanical, avionics) throughout the development lifecycle
• Participate in technical reviews, support documentation efforts, and ensure traceability of requirements
• Occasionally travel abroad to support customers, suppliers, or company affiliates
