Sales Engineer - SpaceTech

This is a unique opportunity to combine your engineering expertise with customer-facing and commercial activities, contributing to projects that are pushing the boundaries of what is possible in space.

Your responsibilities:

* Take ownership of technical and commercial proposals, including RFI/RFQ responses, Statements of Work (SOWs), compliance matrices, project schedules and technical documentation.

* Work closely with engineering teams to gather technical data, validate assumptions and develop customer-specific solutions.

* Participate in customer meetings and calls as the technical point of contact, explaining the technology, discussing technical trade-offs and addressing customer questions.

* Translate customer requirements – such as power needs, mass, stowed volume, orbital conditions, interfaces and satellite lifetime – into clear engineering requirements.

* Assess technical feasibility, identify potential limitations and communicate the advantages and trade-offs of proposed solutions.

* Prepare technical presentations, datasheets and materials comparing the company's technology with conventional deployable solar array solutions.

* Represent the company at industry conferences, trade fairs and customer meetings.

* Gather market and customer feedback and share relevant insights with the engineering team to support further product development.

What we are looking for:

* At least 3 years of experience in a Sales Engineer, Application Engineer, Systems Engineer, Proposal Engineer or similar role within the space, aerospace or aerospace hardware industry.

* A degree in Engineering, preferably in Aerospace, Mechanical, Electrical, Materials Engineering or a related field.

* Good understanding of satellite and spacecraft design considerations, including power budgets, mass constraints, stowed volume, thermal conditions and launch loads.

* Ability to understand and explain how technical design choices affect system performance, mass, volume and cost per watt.

* Previous experience preparing technical proposals, responding to RFIs/RFQs or working on tender documentation.

* Confidence in communicating complex technical concepts to customers and non-technical stakeholders.

* Excellent command of English, both written and spoken.

* Willingness to travel for customer meetings and industry events.

Nice to have:

* Experience with satellite solar arrays, power subsystems, deployable structures or other spacecraft hardware.

* Familiarity with ECSS standards and ESA procurement or tender processes (e.g. ESA-STAR, ARTES, GSTP).

* Knowledge of additive manufacturing and 3D printing technologies.

* Existing contacts within satellite operators, satellite manufacturers, space primes or system integrators.

* Experience working in an early-stage technology or hardware startup.

* French or German language skills.

What client offers:

* Contract: Full-time B2B cooperation

* Work model: Fully remote, anywhere in Europe

* Travel: Opportunities to meet customers and attend international industry events

Why join?

You will become part of a small, ambitious team working on a technology with the potential to reshape the future of satellite infrastructure. This is not just about selling a product – it is about helping turn a new engineering concept into a commercially viable solution for the global space industry.
