## Description (the employer's text)

### YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

THE WHAT

You prepare tests, help execute them, and document the results. You work in the lab and at the test bench — hands-on, as part of a team, and every day with real spaceflight hardware.

THE WHY

We build pressure vessels and carbon fiber structures for spaceflight. Before our hardware flies, it gets tested — and you keep the testing running. Without you, the test bench stands still.

YOUR IMPACT

You don't just support testing. You make sure product verification happens reliably every day.

You ensure:

- testing areas are ready whenever the team needs them
- tests are executed reliably and documented completely
- abnormalities are identified and reported early
- the testing team can operate efficiently
- new skills and testing capabilities are continuously developed
You set up test benches and specimens, tear down after tests, and keep testing areas ready for operation at all times.

→ High Performance: The test bench is ready when the team needs it.

You support destructive testing, acceptance testing, and NDT activities while ensuring complete and accurate documentation of every test.

→ Accountability: What was tested is documented. No gaps.

Anything unusual regarding a specimen, test bench, or result is reported immediately and transparently to the team.

→ Candor: You raise problems before they grow.

You pitch in wherever support is needed, both within the testing team and across the technical infrastructure on site.

→ Togetherness: We win as a team.

You learn new testing methods, materials, and NDT techniques and continuously expand your skills.

→ Playfulness: Curiosity is a strength here, not a distraction.

### YOUR PROFILE

- Strong willingness to learn and genuine interest in testing technologies and materials.
- Motivated, reliable, and hands-on working style with a strong drive to get the job done right.
- Team-oriented mindset and willingness to support colleagues when needed.
- German and English at B2 level minimum, with at least one language being confidently used in daily work.
- Willingness to work fully on-site in Taufkirchen and readiness for future shift work or staggered working hours.
- Completed vocational training as a Materials Tester (plastics, metals, or fiber composites/CFRP) or comparable technical training.
- First experience in a test laboratory, materials testing, or technical testing environment.
- Experience with destructive testing, NDT methods, or acceptance testing.
