Mechanical AIT Engineer

Role Highlights

• Title: Mechanical AIT Engineer

• Department: Global Manufacturing Organisation

• Location: Athens, Greece

• Reporting to: AIT Engineering Team Leader

• Type of Contract: Permanent

• Working model: On-site (Occasional travel for environmental test and suppliers facility)

• Employment is subject to applicable security screening (incl. SUPO, where required)

Why this role matters:

The Mechanical AIT Engineer transforms satellite designs into reliable, flight-ready hardware. You are the technical authority for mechanical and composite hardware in Athens: how satellites are assembled and aligned, what proves they will survive launch, and what evidence exists that every build was done correctly.

You define the AIT processes, tooling and ground support equipment the facilities need as they grow from subassembly production towards full satellite integration. You make sure the design, the processes and the tooling can carry production to high throughput, and you feed what you learn on the floor back into design, so that each build is more manufacturable, more testable and more reliable than the last.
