Summary

Spacecraft Operations Engineer at OHB in Bremen: shapes operational concepts for satellite missions from proposals through Phase E, writes user manuals and flight procedures, and supports missions from separation through LEOP, commissioning, and handover. Core focus is reliable in-orbit operations across LEO to interplanetary missions.

At OHB, we take on some of the most exciting challenges in the space industry. We work across a wide spectrum of spacecraft missions — from single satellites to entire constellations, from LEO to interplanetary exploration, supporting customers in Defence, Science, and beyond. In our Spacecraft Operations Development team, we want to shape the operational concept from day one. We collaborate closely with customers, write the user manuals for the satellites we deliver, develop the flight procedures that will guide operations in orbit, and support the mission from separation through handover — and often long after. We’re now looking for a passionate and experienced Spacecraft Operations Engineer who’s ready to jump in, get up to speed quickly, and contribute from proposals all the way through Phase E. If you have hands-on experience creating and validating procedures, if you’ve been part of LEOP and commissioning campaigns, and if you’re excited about influencing earlier mission phases to enable simple, reliable, and robust operations for our customers — we’d love to meet you. This is your opportunity to leave a meaningful mark on space.
