High Voltage Systems Engineer (all genders)

As High Voltage Systems Engineer your mission is to develop, integrate, and verify the aircraft's high-voltage electrical system, covering the Energy Storage System (ESS), high-voltage power distribution, and HV/LV power conversion. You help ensure that the system architectures, functions, interfaces, and requirements are translated into a robust, safe, and certifiable solution for our eVTOL aircraft.

Working closely with specialists from propulsion, low-voltage electrical systems, avionics, structures, thermal management, testing, and flight-test teams, you contribute to the system-level definition and maturation of the high-voltage system. In addition, you coordinate technical activities with suppliers and external partners, ensuring that externally developed components and subsystems are aligned with program, interface, and certification needs.

• Develop the high-voltage system architecture, functions, requirements, and interfaces, including ESS, high-voltage power distribution, and DC/DC conversion
• Define and coordinate interfaces between the high-voltage system and adjacent systems such as propulsion, low-voltage electrical systems, avionics, thermal management, structures, and control
• Prepare and maintain key system engineering documentation, including requirements, architectures, and interface descriptions
• Support the planning and execution of integration, verification, and validation activities for high-voltage-related topics
• Analyze technical issues, drive root-cause investigations, and support resolution across disciplinary boundaries
• Coordinate technical topics with suppliers and external partners, including requirements alignment, interface clarification, issue follow-up, and review of technical deliverables
• Collaborate closely with design, test, and supplier teams to ensure technical consistency and certification maturity of the high-voltage system

• Hold a bachelor's degree or equivalent in Aerospace, Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or a related field
• Have experience in the area of your responsibilities described above
• Have strong motivation to work on complex aircraft systems and help bring them to flight readiness.
• Have knowledge in aerospace product development including requirements engineering and requirements-driven development
• Have a structured and analytical mindset and enjoy working on technical interfaces across disciplines
• Have experience with high-voltage systems, energy storage systems, electrical power distribution, and/or power conversion systems
• Have experience in coordinating technical topics with suppliers or external development partners.
• Have a high level of self-management with the ability to work in a team, as well as an autonomous, target-oriented, and driven work style with analytic problem-solving skills
• Have excellent problem-solving, communication, and technical writing skills

Moreover, it would be helpful if you also

• Have hands-on experience with battery systems, contactors, precharge circuits, busbars, protection concepts, or DC/DC converters
• Bring familiarity with systems engineering methods, requirements management, and interface control
• Have experience with requirements management or engineering data tools
• Have understanding of verification and validation activities on component, subsystem, and system level
• Bring basic knowledge of EASA/FAA regulations and guidance material and industry standards
• Have exposure to safety-critical development processes or aerospace certification environments
• Have experience with electrical safety concepts, failure analysis, and development of high-voltage architectures
• Have experience with supplier management, technical alignment, or review of external engineering deliverables

• Full-scale aerospace engineering, not concept slides
• A 60+ engineer team at Ottobrunn
• Real ownership and flat hierarchies: a modern startup culture where your input shapes decisions, not just execution
• Flexible working hours, remote work, and competitive compensation
• Health & wellbeing: EGYM Wellpass membership and subsidized lunch in our canteen
• Office extras: espresso coffee, fresh fruit, and soft drinks, plus regular team and company events, and plenty more once you're on board
