Software Test Engineer (m/f/x) Flight Control Systems

MISSION

In today’s dynamic environment of technological change, intelligent

IT, software and system solutions

are becoming increasingly important – particularly in complex, safety-critical and highly regulated technology fields such as Automotive, Defence, and Aerospace.

We combine in-depth expertise in avionics, system integration, verification and qualification, as well as the testing of complex safety-critical systems. This enables us to deliver reliable, certification-ready solutions for civil and military helicopter programs, where technical precision, structured processes and the highest quality standards are at the core of our work.

In this role, you will work as part of an international team on

software test systems for helicopter flight control systems

. Your focus will be on executing, analyzing and evaluating tests on dedicated avionics test benches. You will analyze requirements and test specifications, prepare test cases and test environments, and execute tests under various flight conditions. A key part of your role will be your ability to technically evaluate test results, identify anomalies and provide precise feedback to software developers. In addition, you will continuously improve existing test methods, tools and processes.
