The posting

Mission Brief

Support our CTO and help us keep Europe's launch capability on track! As Chief of Staff to the CTO, you will act as the CTO's deputy in the internal programme and product forums, sitting in the rooms where technical decisions are made on their behalf. You will understand how our programmes actually run, spot bottlenecks before they materialise, and drive the teams that hit them back onto a credible path.

This is an engineering role first. You are not a representative of the CTO externally — you are the person who covers for them internally when they cannot be in the room, and who makes things happen in their place.

Your role in our space mission

  • Deputise for the CTO in product and programme meetings, reviews and decision forums, and carry the outcome back with a clear view of what was decided and what it means
  • Build a deep, current understanding of how each programme runs — dependencies, critical paths, interfaces between engineering, production, quality and AIT — rather than relying on status reporting
  • Identify bottlenecks early, before they turn into schedule or cost problems, and drive their resolution with the responsible teams
  • Take ownership of programmes that have drifted, define the corrective path and get them back on track
  • Provide the CTO with a technically grounded, unfiltered view of programme health and the risks that are not yet visible in the plans
  • Follow up on decisions and commitments made in the CTO's name, and close them out or escalate them early
  • Spend real time in the labs, on the shop floor and in AIT to form your own judgement

Qualification Checklist

  • Degree in engineering or a comparable technical discipline, with several years of hands-on engineering or programme experience in aerospace, space, defence or another complex hardware environment
  • Have delivered or recovered hardware programmes with real technical, cost and schedule risk — ideally through development, industrialisation or ramp-up
  • Understand how complex technical programmes actually fail, and can find the constraint before it becomes critical
  • Technically credible enough to follow a design review, a production-readiness argument and an AIT non-conformance, without pretending to be the deepest expert in the room
  • Work through influence rather than line authority, and are trusted by VPs, Chief Engineer and Programm leads alike
  • Communicate clearly and directly at executive level, in writing and in the room
  • Speak English fluently; German is a strong plus for internal and works-council contexts

Benefits

  • Employee Participation Program: Share in our success through our virtual company share program
  • 30 days of vacation: Enjoy the days off to relax and recharge
  • Company pension plan: Secure your future with our company pension plan, featuring a 20% employer contribution after the probation period
  • Subsidised lunch: Stay energised with delicious, subsidised lunches every day
  • Public transport ticket: Commute with ease using a fully financed Deutschlandticket
  • Rental clothing with laundry service: Enjoy hassle-free workwear with our convenient rental clothing and laundry service
  • Sport Clubs membership: Stay fit with our sponsored sports club memberships (EGYM Wellpass)
  • Individual learning allowance: Grow your skills with an individual learning budget granted after the probation period
  • Childcare allowance: Receive a childcare allowance for your non-school-age children
  • And Much More! Discover additional perks and benefits when you join our team.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
