Description

About the role

About the Role We are seeking a Control Engineer (Missile Systems) to take ownership of control-related challenges across our development portfolio. In this role, you will architect, implement, and validate robust control solutions — from designing end-to-end control loops to tuning advanced controllers.  Your expertise will enable autonomous flight, precision guidance, and reliable maneuverability for our next-generation missile platforms. This is a highly technical, hands-on position where your work directly shapes the success of complex aerospace programs. If you are looking for a lasting impact on future aerospace capabilities — we want to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities

  • Control System Architecture Design end-to-end control system architectures for the overall homing loop and the dedicated Control Actuation System (CAS), ensuring mission performance, reliability, and safety.

  • Cross-Functional IntegrationCollaborate with actuation, airframe, propulsion, and GNC teams to align control laws with actuator bandwidth, structural dynamics, and sensor characteristics.

  • Control Law DesignDevelop and tune controllers using classical (PID, gain scheduling) and modern robust techniques (LQR, H∞, μ synthesis, inversion-based methods) to meet autonomous flight specs.

  • Modeling and Requirements Contribute to high-fidelity vehicle dynamics models and derive clear control system requirements, maintaining configuration baselines throughout the product lifecycle.

We Would Love You to Have

  • Educational Background Master’s degree in aerospace, electrical engineering, cybernetics, or a related field.

  • ExperienceExperience in designing the controllers that tolerate parameter variations, uncertainties, and external disturbances.

  • Technical SkillsExtensive expertise in PID, LQR, gain scheduling, inversion-based control, H∞ tuning, and μ synthesis. Deep insight into cross dependencies of the missile subsystems, e.g. actuators, sensors, and flight dynamics.

  • Soft SkillsSolution-oriented mindset, excellent communication, and keen attention to detail. Able to perform with minimal support staff, rolling up your sleeves when needed.

  • Mission AlignmentStrong alignment with our mission to build affordable and mass-manufacturable defence technologies — ensuring every euro spent moves us closer to our goal.

  • Security ClearanceWillingness to undergo a background check as a condition of employment.

Our ValuesOur mission is ambitious, and it takes a team that works with the same intensity.

  • Own the Mission: Mission first. Always.We choose impact — we focus on what moves the mission forward fastest instead of “nice-to-haves”. We fix it now — when delays or problems appear, we step up, rally the right people, and solve them immediately. We keep momentum — when time matters, we stay focused and move forward without waiting for perfect conditions.

  • Strive for More: Dare more. Do more. Achieve the impossible.We challenge the status quo — we question, test, and improve instead of accepting “the usual way.” We embrace discomfort — we step outside comfort zones and turn challenges into growth. We anticipate the future — we build solutions that scale and set higher standards each time.

  • Build with Trust: Be open. Keep promises.We walk the talk — what we say, we do. No excuses, no exceptions. We share openly — we communicate clearly and early, even when the news is hard. We own outcomes — we admit errors quickly, fix them, and prevent them from repeating.
