Reflex Aerospace

Berlin, Germany

Your Mission:

• Design structural components and assemblies for satellite platforms and their subsystems.
• Generate detailed 3D models and production-ready drawings using CAD software (preferably Siemens NX).
• Develop and maintain design documentation including specifications, analysis reports, and design review materials.
• Support mechanical and structural testing, verification, and validation activities.
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams including thermal, systems, electrical, and integration engineers to ensure seamless system-level functionality.
• Interface with suppliers and customers to ensure manufacturability, compliance, and smooth integration.
• Apply GD&T practices and Design for Manufacturing (DfM) principles for efficient and cost-effective production.

Your Background:
