Role Overview An exceptional executive leadership opportunity has opened for a visionary Head of MAITE to drive the industrialization, scale-up, and production ramp-up of next-generation satellite manufacturing operations. In this high-impact role, you will be the ultimate authority on the satellite's physical journey—transforming complex aerospace designs into flight-ready hardware capable of withstanding the harshest space environments. Key Responsibilities End-to-End Operational Oversight: Lead the overarching strategy for the complete Manufacturing, Assembly, Integration, Testing, and Engineering (MAITE) lifecycle of advanced satellite systems and constellations. Industrialization & Scaling: Define and execute the manufacturing roadmap to scale up production capacity, streamline workflows, plan state-of-the-art cleanroom layouts, and establish highly repeatable manufacturing processes. Executive Team Leadership: Manage, mentor, and scale a high-performing, multidisciplinary team of senior AIT engineers, facility managers, production technicians, and stock managers, fostering a culture of rigorous precision. Cross-Functional Synergy: Act as the primary liaison between the production floor and the design/systems engineering teams to champion "Design for Manufacturing" (DfM) and "Design for Testability" (DfT) best practices. Execution & Scheduling: Oversee complex production schedules, supply chain resource planning, and facility inventory management to ensure satellites progress through testing phases on time, within budget, and to strict mission specifications. Candidate Profile Space Industry Heritage: A comprehensive and robust background in the Space sector, with direct, deep experience in satellite manufacturing. Extensive Senior Experience: A minimum of 15+ years of professional experience in space-related engineering, advanced space manufacturing, or AIT. Proven Leadership Prowess: A demonstrated track record of success in executive-level or lead roles directing complex space hardware projects and multidisciplinary teams. Technical Mastery: Career-long hands‐on roots in hardware integration, system-level validation, or advanced production. Prior knowledge of Radio Frequency (RF) or Signal Intelligence (SIGINT) systems is highly advantageous. Clearance & Eligibility: Ability to successfully undergo rigorous security screening. An EU citizenship is preferred to facilitate necessary security clearance protocols. Language: Professional level fluency in English. The Offer Contract: Permanent, full-time executive contract. Compensation: Executive salary package ranging from €90,000 to €110,000+ (commensurate with seniority and experience).
