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. To support this mission, we are bringing harness manufacturing in-house and are looking for a Wire Harness Technician to help industrialize, build, and validate high-reliability electrical harnesses used across the Nyx avionics and test campaigns. In this role, your scope will be continuously evolving. Day-to-day you will help translate harness design outputs into robust manufacturing processes and deliver flight-like and test harnesses with strong quality, repeatability, and documentation. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES In your capacity as a Wire Harness Technician, your responsibilities will typically include: Manufacturing & Assembly Execution - Build electrical harnesses (development, qualification, and test harnesses), including cut/strip, crimp, splice, solder (where applicable), lacing/tie, over-braid/shield terminations, labeling, and final assembly. - Support batch-by-batch production for test campaigns and verification activities (e.g., shock/vibration, EMI/EMC, TVAC), coordinating readiness of parts, tooling, and work instructions. Cross-functional Collaboration - Work closely with harness design and integration stakeholders to ensure manufacturability (DFM), clarity of drawings, and alignment between wiring diagrams and physical assembly. Documentation & Traceability - Maintain “as-built” records, deviations, rework logs, and configuration/serial tracking for harnesses and critical components. WHAT WE WOULD LOVE TO SEE FROM YOU For the Wire Harness Technician role, you ideally bring experience with the following: For the Wire Harness Technician role, you ideally bring experience with the following: - Technical vocational training (Ausbildung) in electrical, electronic, or mechanical fields (e.g. Elektroniker, Mechatroniker) or equ
