Senior System Engineer I
Your Impact
Join our team to bring next-generation RF sensor products from concept to reliable, scalable production. As a Senior Systems Engineer I, you will own the hardware lifecycle for RF-based counter-drone detection systems, working across engineering, manufacturing, quality, and certification. You will also contribute to early technical decisions such as concept definition and component selection.
What You'll Do
- Own the end-to-end lifecycle of RF sensor hardware, from early prototypes through production ramp and sustaining support.
- Support early-phase development through concept definition and component selection (RF, compute, power, and interfaces).
- Drive manufacturing readiness, including design for manufacturing and testing, pilot builds, production bring-up, and continuous improvement.
- Partner closely with production, suppliers/CMs, and quality teams to solve production issues, improve yield, and implement product changes.
- Support compliance and certification activities (e.g., RED/FCC), including test planning, lab coordination, technical documentation, and follow-ups.
- Lead system-level integration across RF subsystems, mechanical and electrical interfaces, and supporting compute and power elements.
- Collaborate with electrical, mechanical, and software teams to deliver robust, manufacturable systems.
What You Bring
- Degree in Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related field.
- Experience owning hardware products across the lifecycle, ideally including manufacturing introduction and sustaining engineering.
- Solid systems-level understanding of RF products, with hands-on validation and troubleshooting skills.
- Experience supporting concept development and making pragmatic component choices for production-ready hardware.
- Exposure to regulatory compliance and certification processes (e.g., RED/FCC) is a strong plus.
- Strong cross-functional communication skills and a practical, solution-oriented mindset.
Work Location: This role is based out of our Kassel office and follows a hybrid schedule. We rely on in-person collaboration and ask that team members work onsite Tuesdays through Fridays, with the flexibility to work remotely on Mondays, unless there is an approved workplace accommodation. We believe that connection fuels innovation, and our in-office culture is designed to foster meaningful teamwork, mentorship, and shared success.
