Full Job Description
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. ABOUT THE ROLE We are developing the avionics system of a rocket engine powered by electric pumps. The team is responsible for the design, integration, testing, and qualification of the engine electronics and embedded software. We are looking for an Senior Electronics Hardware Test & Qualification Engineer to help structure, execute, and industrialize our electronics test activities. This role is intended for someone who is both rigorous in test definition and reporting, and hands-on in the lab. The objective is to help mature our electronics hardware from prototype bring-up to qualified and deliverable units by defining test strategies, preparing test campaigns, building test means, executing tests, analyzing results, and producing clear verification evidence. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES / TASKS We are looking for someone who enjoys the interface between engineering design and real hardware testing. The ideal candidate is rigorous enough to define proper test strategies and qualification evidence, but practical enough to build a test adapter, debug a signal on an oscilloscope, and improve a lab setup. This person should be comfortable working in a fast-moving development environment where hardware is still evolving, tests need to be structured, and technical issues must be solved pragmatically. The role requires both engineering discipline and hands-on ownership. - Define, structure, and maintain electronics test strategies for ECU, inverter electronics, and future control boards, from development testing to qualification and acceptance. - Translate requirements into test cases, procedures, acceptance criteria, and verification evidence, ensuring clear requirements-to-test traceability. - Prepare, organize, and execute electronics test ca
