## Job description

At Alpine Eagle, we’re building the future of counter-drone defence. We’re a fast-growing, international deep-tech company working at the intersection of aerospace engineering, defence systems, and machine learning. Our goal: create the world’s first swarm-based, airborne counter-drone system.

Modern conflicts show how quickly drones are reshaping the battlefield. Threats are rising, and today’s solutions aren’t keeping pace. We’re here to change that.

Alpine Eagle isn’t just a defence company. It’s a mission. Backed by an international team, strong funding, and a bold vision, we’re looking for people who want to shape the next generation of aerial security and build something that truly matters.

**🎯** **How you will make an impact:**

- Set up and support lab and onboard test measurements (vibration, temperature, motors, structures)
- Research and prepare DAQs, sensors, and test instrumentation
- Improve prototyping lab tools, layout, and workflows
- Optimize 3D printing processes and part quality
- Support prototyping, assembly, and test activities
- Manage 3D printing operations and part post-processing
- Assist with component selection and engineering documentation (ISO 9001/9100)
- Provide hands-on support during peak workload phases

**✅** **What you need to be successful:**

- Valid work permit (citizenship or visa) for Germany
- Currently enrolled in a university within Germany
- Aerospace, mechanical engineering, or similar background
- CAD and 3D printing experience
- Knowledge of electronics and embedded systems (Arduino, Raspberry Pi, sensors, DAQs)
- Understanding of drone/aircraft design and development cycles
- Hands-on, proactive, and organized team player
- Comfortable working autonomously in lab and workshop environments
- Driving license is a plus, not required

**At Alpine Eagle, you're not just taking a job - you're joining a mission.**
