As our System Verification Engineer, you will take ownership of the physical verification of our hardware. In this role, you ensure our integrated electrical and mechanical systems are rugged enough for the operational environment by bridging the gap between designs and systems.

From configuring hardware and instrumenting tests to troubleshooting failures at the system level, you will play a vital role in our System Verification & Validation team, reporting directly to the Team Lead.

Responsibilities

• Perform end-to-end readiness of the Device Under Test (DUT), from mechanical assembly to electrical configuration and instrumentation, ensuring the integrated system meets all technical specifications prior to laboratory dispatch.

• Create and execute test plans designed to meet, design specifications, MIL-STD-810 and NATO STANAG standards.

• Perform root-cause analysis on structural/mechanical failures and/or electrical degradation during test campaigns.

• Interpret complex sensor data (accelerometers, thermal probes) and translate raw lab results into clear, actionable feedback for the R&D design teams.

• Act as the primary technical contact for external test laboratories, ensuring they have the correct instructions, equipment, and parameters to execute the tests.

• Analyze the raw data and formal reports provided by the test lab, evaluate whether the system met the pass/fail criteria, and write the final internal conclusion.

• Consolidate test logs and raw data into formal reports, ensuring 100% traceability back to the original requirements.

Requirements

Technical expertise:

• A degree in Engineering: BSc/MSc in a relevant field with a strong focus on Mechanics or Electromechanics.

• Industry experience: 3–5 years in V&V or Test Engineering roles. We specifically value experience with integrated hardware-software systems (e.g., Radar, Robotics, or Aerospace).

• Standards expertise: A proven ability to interpret and apply MIL-STD-810, NATO STANAG, and CE standards to hardware qualification.

• Campaign management: A strong background in managing Thermal, Vibration, Shock, and EMC test campaigns at external facilities.

Practical & tooling skillset:

• Strong skills in physical assembly, instrumentation, and Root Cause Analysis (RCA) for hardware failures.

• Experience using FEA or thermal simulation software to predict hardware stress, alongside proficiency in industry-standard tools like Jira and Confluence.

• Fluency in both written and spoken English is essential.

Professional DNA:

• A sharp attention to detail and the ability to translate complex data into clear, actionable feedback for non-specialist stakeholders.

• You thrive in fast-paced, scale-up environments where priorities can shift and quick, effective decisions are required. You bring the interpersonal skills to remain calm under pressure and the ability to communicate in a constructive, solution-oriented manner when navigating complex technical challenges.

N.B. All applicants, we realize that this is quite the list and people come with various levels of experience. Don't be afraid to apply even if you feel you don't meet every desired skill. Our mission is a journey and there's plenty to learn on the way!

But of course, you should identify with our core values: We trust, We own it & We aim high.

What's in for you

• Working for a Great Place to Work® certified company;

• Comprehensive pension plan;

• Commuting allowance: our teams work hybrid;

• 30 days of paid holiday leave (with the possibility to buy 3 additional days);

• Opportunities to develop your skills even further through training and certifications;

• High quality laptop/desktop, monitor, noise canceling headphones, and any other equipment necessary for your role;
