**Job Description:** At Airbus UpNext , we fly future technologies at speeds well beyond what seems feasible today. We're looking for passionate individuals to join a new demonstrator project that is shaping the future of sustainable aviation by advancing the aircraft electrification roadmap. This project will focus on the challenges and opportunities of High Voltage Electrical Systems , which are essential for next-generation, low-emission aircraft part of Airbus ambition to electrify the skies. As part of a fast-paced, agile team, you will help create a unique, state-of-the-art test facility from the ground up. Your mission will be to explore novel HV technologies at their limits and beyond, generating invaluable data and learnings needed to build the robust and reliable aircraft of tomorrow by safely testing the unsafe. If you have a burning desire to make an impact and want to work in a startup-like environment backed by the strength of Airbus, this is your opportunity to help us decarbonize the aerospace industry . The Test Engineer position consists of a limited contact linked to the deliverable of the demonstrator (estimated completion date April - 2028 ) , starting ASAP. * Mission: * Reporting directly to the Technical Director, you will play a hands-on pivotal role in executing the Verification & Validation strategy during the demonstration phase. You will master and drive the full testing lifecycle - from receiving Laboratory Test Requests and drafting Laboratory Test Instructions to real-time test execution, deferred-time data exploitation, analysis, documentation and problem report management. Your role requires high rigor and immediate real-time decision making to maintain systems and facility integrity during high risk electrical test runs. Your Main Responsibilities: **End-to-End Test Lifecycle Management*: Drive the complete test campaign lifecycle from transforming Laboratory Test Requests to detailed Laboratory Test Instructions to executing real-time tests, conducting deferred time data analysis, writing formal test reports and managing Problem Reports through their full resolution lifecycle. *Test Campaign Execution & Real-Time Integrity*: Be a key contributor to the demonstration phase managing the execution of complex tests, including functional tests, electrical failure mode tests - short circuits, arc-flashes - and altitude environmental emulation up to 55.000 feet. Maintain maximum technical rigor and make critical real-time decisions during live test runs to protect and preserve facility and specimen integrity. Mastery handling Test Support Control systems (NI Veristand, etc.)*Test Setup & Instrument Calibration* : Configure sensor acquisition chains (current/voltage transformers, Rogowski coils, oscilloscopes, high-speed cameras, temperature sensors) and verify signal integrity prior to test execution. *Deferred-Time Data Analysis & Exploitation*: Drive post-test data export and deep data exploitation using specialized software toolsets (NI DIAdem, MATLAB, etc). Execute fast analysis and parameter processing for rapid problem-solving iterations and engineering hypothesis validation. *Documentation & Anomaly Resolution*: Maintain accurate laboratory logbooks, author comprehensive Test Result Analysis reports and drive Problem Report Lifecycle Management to systematically log, diagnose and resolve testing anomalies or hardware / software issues. *Test Bench Configuration Control:* Assure, track and manage an agile test bench configuration state - hardware setups, sensor chains, bench software configurations to support repeatable test campaigns and rigorous data analysis. The responsibilities and the technical scope of the job might evolve according to the agile working environment of the project, so being flexible is important. *Your boarding pass* What you bring: * *Experience* : Proven experience of 5 to 10 years of hands-on experience in test campaign execution, system verification & validation and laboratory testing within the electrical systems domain in the aerospace, automotive or industrial sector. * *Education*: Master's Degree or Bachelor's Degree in Electrical, Industrial, Systems or Aerospace Engineering. * *Test Lifecycle Mastery*: Proven expertise in execution across all phases of the testing lifecycle management in the electrical systems field. * *Data Analysis & Toolsets*: High proficiency in Test Support Control systems and data exploitation tools, ideally NI TestStand, DIAdem, MATLAB, etc or equivalent managing multiple signals massive datasets. * *Instrumentation Mastery:* Strong capability in handling and installing on the fly additional instrumentation tooling - oscilloscopes, Rogowski coils, high speed acquisition - and troubleshooting test setups on the fly. * *Multi-Disciplinary Exposure*: Background or prior hands-on exposure to adjacent disciplines - electrical systems, test bench design, control systems / HIL - is considered a strong plus, though not a mandatory requirement. * *Languages*: English - fluency mandatory. Spanish is considered a plus. * *Mindset:* Highly analytical, methodical, safety-focused and calm under pressure profile with a desire to solve complex challenges in an agile, changing and fast-paced empirical environment is required. * * Willingness to have fun! * What you get: **Pivotal Role in a Strategic Mission:** play a key part in a project at the forefront of aircraft electrification contributing to Airbus's decarbonization roadmap. ♻**Build Something that last:* * Your work will create a high-value asset and learning contribution for Airbus's future. **Develop **Critical Competences: Acquire and develop a sound background in aerospace systems and technologies essential for the future of aerospace, providing a unique career development opportunity within Airbus. **Work on the Edge of Technology:* * Explore disruptive technologies at their limits, deepening your knowledge of complex phenomena shaping the future of the aerospace industry. **Agile and Empowering Environment:* * Thrive in a work culture that empowers you to act and think like a start-up while being supported by the strong expertise of Airbus. **A Great Team and Culture:* * Be part of a high-achieving, experienced and fun team in a shared open-space office with highly skilled colleagues.
