You coordinate technical and operational activities across multiple disciplines, challenge engineering assumptions, and ensure projects move forward with speed, clarity, and technical rigor. THE WHY To end COPV failure in spaceflight. Developing reliable COPVs requires more than strong engineering. It requires structured execution, fast decision-making, and seamless coordination across teams. This role exists to ensure that product development projects stay on track, technical risks are addressed early, and critical decisions are made before they become costly problems. YOUR IMPACT You don't just track projects. You drive technical decisions and turn development plans into delivered products. You ensure: - development projects are delivered on time, on scope, and within budget - technical decisions are made quickly and based on sound engineering reasoning - risks, issues, and dependencies are identified before they become roadblocks - engineering, manufacturing, quality, and materials teams remain aligned throughout execution - project documentation and traceability remain complete and audit-ready Manage the full lifecycle of new COPV development projects from concept and design through prototype manufacturing and serial production. → Accountability: Own the project. Own the outcome. Develop sufficient technical depth to challenge assumptions, facilitate decisions, and guide teams toward practical and robust engineering solutions. → High Performance: Good decisions early prevent problems later. Manage project activities, resources, schedules, and priorities while ensuring all stakeholders remain aligned on goals and timelines. → Togetherness: Complex products are built by aligned teams. Act as the central point of contact for development projects and ensure stakeholders have a clear understanding of project status, risks, and required decisions. → Candor: No surprises. No hidden risks. Ensure complete and structured documentation of decisions, changes, requirements, tests, and project milestones throughout the product development process. → Playfulness: Build systems that make future projects better and easier. ### YOUR PROFILE ### Must-Haves - Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Materials Science, or a related technical field. - At least 2 years of professional experience in technical project management or a comparable leadership role within a technical development environment. - Experience coordinating interdisciplinary teams across multiple technical disciplines and stakeholders. - Strong technical understanding and the ability to challenge engineering decisions and guide teams through complex technical problems. - Excellent project management, planning, and organizational skills combined with experience using project management tools. - Fluent English (C1-C2) and a hands-on, proactive mindset with a strong sense of ownership. - Previous experience as an engineer or product developer before transitioning into project management. - Knowledge of composites, product development processes, cost tracking, process improvement, or experience in a startup or high-growth environment. ### WHAT WE OFFER Choose your own benefit: Germany ticket, Egym Wellpass, or a tax-free Give Card Healthy & social lunch culture: Fresh meals during shared lunch breaks High level of autonomy & real impact: You own a critical seam in the business — between what we sell and what we build Startup mindset meets aerospace innovation: Flat hierarchies, fast decisions, and space for your ideas Stunning views: Rooftop terrace with views of the Alps in Taufkirchen, or indoor garden in Garching-Hochbrück Growth opportunities: Work on technically demanding projects with real stakes We live our team culture: From tech talks to team events and after-work gatherings — we celebrate success together ### Please send your CV in English and get ready for take-off! #LI-Onsite #projectmanagement #engineering #productdevelopment #aerospace #copv --- Data: alder (https://alderhq.app).
