Electrical System Engineer (Luxembourg)

At ClearSpace, we believe in reusability, in affordability driving disruption, and that no progress is real unless it is sustainable.
Our company was founded in 2018 out of the realization that in-orbit servicing and space debris removal are vital services for the future of space exploration and operations. Today ClearSpace has assembled an expert engineering team and is leading the way toward sustainable space operations. From a garage in Switzerland, we now operate across UK and Europe; we are working with world-leading institutions and companies to bring our dream of a sustainable space ecosystem to life.
We are looking for a Electrical System Engineer to join our Electrical team in Luxembourg, working across current missions and future programmes.
The Role
As an Electrical System Engineer, you will support the technical development of ClearSpace spacecraft, with a focus on avionics architecture, interfaces, and system‑level integration.
You will contribute across the full mission lifecycle — from early concept and requirements definition through design, AIT, launch, and in‑orbit commissioning — working closely with subsystem, software, and systems engineers to ensure a coherent and robust system design.
Responsibilities
System Engineering
Provide electrical system engineering, both high level architecture and detailed electronics design, from specification to integration
Develop and maintain electrical system architectures for ClearSpace missions
Act as the technical point of contact on the Electrical systems with key stakeholders: internal project teams, customers, subcontractors.
Perform requirements engineering (analysis, flow-up and down) related to electrical systems, and the electrical interfaces of other on-board hardware
Maintain spacecraft budgets and parametric models for the electrical systems
Support the definition of test equipment
Define validation, verification and test plans
Support Product Assurance activities and technical reviews
Contribute to development, verification, and AIV/T planning at system and spacecraft level
Support integration and test of electrical units, including generation of reports
Support flight operations
Generate documentation for the full project lifetime (e.g. Design, Development and Verification Plan; FMEA; design review documentation; in-orbit subsystem operational procedures)
Support to customer and project reviews
Unit definition and procurement
Write and support Requests for Proposals (RFPs) to external companies for avionics units reviewing responses and supporting-down selections
Provide subcontractor management and technical supervision for key hardware deliverables, both power units and supporting other avionics procurements
Review and assess power electronics aspects of all spacecraft equipment supporting other disciplines
Internal developments
Support architecture and product development for future spacecraft power systems
Contribute to detailed electronics design for in-house developments
Must Have
BSc or MSc in Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a related discipline
5+ years Electrical Engineering experience in the space industry in a systems, avionics, data handling or power electronics role
Experience working with system‑level requirements, interfaces, and technical documentation
Knowledge of typical program lifecycles, with previous experience as an active contributor to key formal reviews (PDR, CDR, etc)
Ability to work in a team and willingness to collaborate outside your immediate expertise
Well‑organised, with the ability to handle multiple technical topics in parallel
Nice to Have
Detailed understanding of electronics analysis, design, build, and test
Hands-on electronics design and test experience, including fault diagnosis
Experience with common space standards (ECSS, MIL, etc), and associated tailoring
Experience of EMC constraints and related mitigation measures
Experience of technical team leadership
Experience interacting with institutional customers such as ESA or the UK Space Agency
