OHB Sweden is a leading Swedish supplier of space systems. We develop, build, test and commission satellites and subsystems for space missions in, for example, communication, earth observation and space research for institutional and commercial customers within and outside Europe.

At us you are going to be a big part of our defense projects and work with new and challenging spacecraft and small constellation programs - commercially, nationally and with the European Space Agency.

At us you will work with a team of engineers both during study phases as well as in implementation projects, in all aspects of systems engineering. You shall have a wide experience in several fields of systems engineering, such as requirements analysis, failure modes and effects analysis, engineering analysis, design trade-offs, systems modelling and spacecraft architectural design. 

This work is to be performed together with a larger team of other system engineers, field experts and project managers. As a result, your work is dynamic, with other people, executed and reported in a very systematic and professional way so as to allow for the results and outcomes to be digested and used by the project-at-large and the end-customer.

Applicants are expected to have expertise/experience in several of the following areas:

• Experience in numerical analytical methods applied in trade-offs, preliminary sizing and bounding of performance requirements

• Experience using Python and/or MATLAB Simulink

• Architectural principles for spacecraft mechanical and thermal design

• Data handling systems, including both ground and in-flight software

• Attitude and orbit control, orbital mechanics, and mission design

• Be able to provide clear and coherent reporting and presentations in the English language

Required qualifications:

• As a minimum, Bachelor’s or Master’s Degree in related Engineering disciplines

• At least 5 years of experience in systems engineering, either directly or indirectly through related work in other subsystems or industries

• Fluent in the English language, both spoken and written

• Located in, or willingness to relocate to, Stockholm, Sweden

Added advantageous qualifications:

• Experience using DOORS or other requirements management tools

• Experience in RF, digital design and EMC are seen as additional advantage

• Experience in one or more of a project’s life cycle starting from feasibility analysis (Phase A) through Preliminary Design (Phase B) and project implementation (Phases C/D/E).

We are looking for a team-player, learning quickly, providing technical advice to team members, as well as having the ability to work autonomously. Capability for problem solving and initiative are necessary as well as the ability to work in a pragmatic way focusing on finding the right level of quality and to deliver on time.

If you would be a part of our journey and involved in complicated defense projects, just apply!
