Responsibilities
- Assemble, route, and secure complex satellite electrical harnesses, ensuring compliance with routing standards and EMI/EMC best practices for grounding and shielding
- Install and verify Multi-Layer Insulation (MLI) and thermal protection systems to specification
- Conduct alignment, assembly, and verification of mechanical and thermal hardware across satellite production activities
- Act as the primary point of contact for technical issues during harness routing and thermal assembly, leading troubleshooting of thermal and electrical connectivity faults
- Collaborate with EMI/EMC engineering teams to optimise harness routing and shielding solutions that mitigate electromagnetic interference
- Identify process issues and drive continuous improvement of thermal and harness production workflows, contributing to design-for-manufacturing (DFM) and design-for-testability (DFT) initiatives
- Represent AIT Engineering across projects and disciplines on mechanical and thermal interface topics, ensuring alignment between production and design teams
Requirements
Must haves:
- 5+ years of hands-on experience in the development, integration, testing, or production of complex spacecraft hardware
- Deep technical knowledge of harness manufacturing, routing standards, and thermal control materials including MLI
- Familiarity with integration, verification, production ramp-up, and configuration management processes
- Fundamental understanding of EMI/EMC principles and best practices for aerospace cabling and harness design
- Systems engineering mindset, able to identify and resolve issues across mechanical, thermal, and electrical interfaces
- Track record of enabling design-for-manufacturing (DFM) and design-for-testability (DFT) in a production environment
- Strong English communication skills (written and spoken) for cross-functional collaboration
Nice to haves:
- Experience in multidisciplinary engineering environments with a strong cross-functional collaboration track record
- Familiarity with aerospace standards (ECSS, IPC) and cleanroom practices
- Experience with Atlassian Cloud tools (Jira, Confluence)
- Lean and Six Sigma experience
Conditions
- Permanent contract
- On-site working model in Valencia, Spain
- Employment is subject to applicable security screening (incl. SUPO, where required)
- Benefits are designed to support health and wellbeing, and offerings vary by location
