About the Team
Our international and agile team is searching for a motivated engineer in the Software team as LabVIEW Programming Engineer (f/m/d). You enjoy working in a dedicated, dynamic and international environment that aims for high-performance engineering solutions in aerospace technology? Are you excited by the prospect of writing the code that tests actual launch vehicle hardware? Then apply for us.
Your Tasks
- Collaborate closely with test engineers on the shop floor to interface instrumentation and control systems with National Instruments (NI) DAQ and Beckhoff data acquisition hardware.
- Design and build intuitive LabVIEW User Interfaces (UIs) that empower test engineers to operate actuators and monitor live, high-frequency sensor telemetry.
- Proactively analyze, debug, and resolve real-time software anomalies and bugs to maintain high test-stand availability.
Your Qualifications
- Demonstrated track record of LabVIEW programming, proven through demanding academic projects, extracurricular initiatives or prior industry experience.
- Solid, practical experience setting up the entire data acquisition chain—from physically connecting sensors and actuators to configuring NI DAQ systems and setting up robust logging environments.
- A strong understanding of sensor signals, industrial automation, or distributed I/O systems (experience with Beckhoff/EtherCAT is a strong plus).
- Fluent in oral and written English, as all day-to-day engineering and documentation activities are conducted exclusively in English.
