Want to get into NewSpace? Your automation experience is the way in.

My client is a fast-growing Paris start-up building hardware for commercial satellites.

They don’t need space experience. They need someone who has built automated production lines from scratch in a demanding manufacturing environment, and made them run.

This role owns their production line, from a blank page to thousands of units a year.

The business

  • Hardware designed, built and tested in-house
  • A small, hands-on engineering team where you own the outcome
  • Scaling fast, with equity alongside salary

The role

  • Design, commission and improve robotic handling, motion control, sensors and tooling
  • Own the control layer: PLCs, HMIs and the data coming off every station
  • Design your own fixtures and tooling in CAD, and get them made
  • Push back on product design where it won’t work in production
  • Diagnose electrical, mechanical and software faults to improve OEE
  • Become the person others come to when the line stops

What you’ll bring

  • You’ve built a production line that didn’t exist before, and it ran reliably
  • Ownership of automated production equipment through multiple design cycles
  • Hands-on PLC programming and industrial controls design
  • Experience working with equipment suppliers and system integrators
  • Roughly 5+ years, though what you’ve built matters more than how long
  • Professional English. French helps, but isn’t required.

Useful, not essential:

cleanroom manufacturing, machine vision, robot programming, start-up or scale-up experience.

Any manufacturing background works:

semiconductors, medical devices, battery, automotive, electronics or anywhere else where tolerances are tight and downtime costs money.

Probably not for you

if you’re most comfortable executing a design against a fixed requirements list, or working in a rigid engineering process.
