Employee
Engineering

Together with our partner Airbus, we are looking for dedicated Avionics experts to support the world’s leading helicopter manufacturer.

Why Airbus? You’ll be working on high-tech aircraft that save lives—from search and rescue to global military operations. Airbus offers a premier working environment where your expertise is valued: expect salaries significantly above market average and a clear path to becoming a top-tier industry specialist.

Locations: Choose your base from Airbus hubs across Germany:

  • Donauwörth or Augsburg (Bavaria)
  • Laupheim or Niederstetten (Baden-Württemberg)
  • Fritzlar, Kassel or Calden (Hesse)
  • Bückeburg, Faßberg or Nordholz (Lower Saxony)

Tasks

As part of the Certifying Staff, you are the backbone of flight safety. You won't just be fixing helicopters; you will be ensuring that complex systems on the world's most advanced models—like the NH90, Tiger, H145M, or the new CH47 Chinook—are mission-ready.

Your core responsibilities:

  • Final Certification: Release of maintenance, repair, and overhaul tasks according to EASA or DEMAR standards.
  • System Integration: Troubleshooting and functional testing of advanced avionics, navigation, and communication systems.
  • Quality Leadership: Acting as a technical mentor and supervisor for maintenance teams to ensure the highest safety standards.
  • Strategic Maintenance: Performing complex assembly and retrofitting on serial production or military-specific upgrades.

Requirements

  • Licensing: You hold a valid EASA Part-66 CAT B2 license (candidates currently in the final stages of obtaining their license are also encouraged to apply).
  • Education: Completed vocational training in aircraft electronics/avionics, ideally supplemented by a Master Craftsman (Meister), Technician, or Bachelor’s degree.
  • Expertise: Solid experience in aviation maintenance or assembly. Familiarity with DEMAR or EASA regulations is a plus.
  • Mindset: You have a keen eye for detail and a "safety first" mentality.
  • Communication: Fluent in either German or English.

Extra Credit: If you already hold Type Ratings for Airbus products or have experience in Quality Inspection, we definitely want to talk to you.

Benefits

  • Top-Tier Compensation: A highly competitive salary package that exceeds industry standards, including attractive special payments.
  • Real Work-Life Balance: A standard 35–40 hour week (Mon–Fri) with no shift work and 30 days of vacation.
  • The Airbus Academy: Airbus invests in you. Get your Type Ratings and advanced technical certifications on the house.
  • Relocation & Mobility: Full support if you move for the job, plus travel allowances and modern bike/car leasing options.
  • Locations: Choose your base from our hubs across Germany (e.g., Donauwörth, Kassel-Calden, Nordholz, Bückeburg, and more).
