The posting

The Destinus engineering team is seeking a Propulsion Test Technician to support the preparation, assembly, operation, and maintenance of propulsion test activities at our Payerne test facility.

Working directly alongside propulsion test engineers, you will be responsible for the hands-on readiness of test benches, ground support equipment, and instrumentation – ensuring that every test is set up correctly, runs safely, and that the facility stays operational between campaigns.

What You’ll Do

· Prepare test benches, ground support equipment (GSE), and instrumentation for propulsion and pyrotechnic test campaigns – mechanical assembly, connections, and pre-test checks

· Assemble rocket motors and pyrotechnic devices onto test rigs following assembly procedures, travellers, and safety protocols

· Support test operations: monitor systems during test runs, operate ground support equipment, and assist test engineers throughout the campaign

· Perform post-test teardown, inspection, and data collection; document findings and flag anomalies

· Carry out scheduled and corrective maintenance of test benches, GSE, and facility equipment; maintain maintenance logs and flag items requiring engineering review

· Manage test bench operability: track the status of equipment, calibration, and facility systems; ensure readiness ahead of each test campaign

· Handle and store energetic test articles, propellants, and pyrotechnic devices in compliance with applicable safety protocols and site procedures

· Maintain a safe, organized test facility in line with regulations, site safety rules, and internal procedures

Requirements

What You’ll Need

· Vocational training as a Polymechaniker/in, mechanic, or equivalent hands-on technical qualification

· Several years of experience in a technical support, test operations, or maintenance role in an industrial, aerospace, or defence environment

· Comfortable with mechanical assembly, fluid systems, and instrumentation connections in a test environment

· Experience with test bench or GSE maintenance; familiarity with calibration and functional check procedures

· Ability to read and follow assembly procedures, test plans, and work instructions accurately

· Experience handling energetic, pyrotechnic, or otherwise hazardous materials is a strong advantage

· Methodical and safety-conscious – someone who does not take shortcuts in a safety-critical test environment

· Fluent in English; French and/or German is a strong advantage given the Payerne site

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.
