Systems Engineer MEMS (m/w/x)

Your role

In an interdisciplinary team, you are responsible for the design, specification, and further development of microsystems and subsystems across the entire development lifecycle.

You develop and evaluate system architectures, derive requirements, and ensure their coherent implementation.

You analyze interactions between microsystems, electronics, packaging, control, environmental conditions, and the overall system — with a particular focus on electro-mechanical interfaces.

In a functional interface role to suppliers and development partners, you steer and evaluate development contributions in terms of design, technology, performance, quality, and manufacturability.

You define modeling, simulation, characterization, and verification approaches, analyze deviations, and derive robust system solutions.

You prepare technology and architecture decisions, present them to stakeholders, and strengthen knowledge growth in microsystems engineering and adjacent disciplines.

Your profile

Degree in microsystems engineering, electrical engineering, mechatronics, physics, mechanical engineering, or a comparable field

Several years of experience in development, system design, or integration of MEMS, ideally in collaboration with suppliers, foundries, or development partners

Solid knowledge of operating principles, architectures, fabrication technologies, and system boundaries of microelectromechanical systems. Deeper electronics knowledge is a plus.

Broad system understanding in adjacent areas, especially electronics, packaging, control, testing, and reliability

Experience in requirements engineering as well as verification, validation, characterization, and fault analysis

Knowledge of microsystem process technology, especially surface- and volume-micromechanics, and experience in modeling and simulation of microsystems are advantageous

Ability to address complex questions technically in depth while also at the system level

Strong communication and collaboration skills and a confident presence at interdisciplinary and cross-organizational interfaces

Fluent German at C1 level and good English at B2 level

If you want to apply your microsystems expertise to holistically develop demanding adaptive optical systems and bring them together with internal and external partners into high-performance systems, we look forward to your application.
