As one of the world’s leading players in the aerospace industry, we develop next-generation aircraft and systems – more efficiently, safely, and sustainably.

Behind every pioneering innovation lies a well-thought-out process landscape. In this key role, you will operate directly in an environment at the interface between systems engineering, software and hardware development, and IT. You will optimize the tools and working methods of our design teams, eliminate friction losses in the development cycle, and ensure that product configurations remain seamlessly traceable throughout their entire lifecycle.

This role is also available with reduced weekly hours and an adapted scope of tasks.

Your location

You will be working at the largest production site for civil aircraft situated in Hamburg. Its location on the southern banks of the river Elbe includes the option to commute by ferry. Experience the special flair of Hamburg in your spare time where vibrant cosmopolitan culture meets nautic legacy.
