Opérateur Mécanique Satellites

About the role

The Mechanical Satellite Operator will join an assembly, integration and test team working on satellite projects. The role supports engineers and technicians in clean‑room environments to ensure precise mechanical integration of satellite components.

Key responsibilities

• Perform operations in ISO7/ISO8 clean rooms following detailed assembly procedures.
• Assemble and integrate mechanical structures, mechanisms, and satellite equipment, including electrical and RF harnesses, thermal protection, heaters, and metal/composite brackets.
• Execute both screw‑fastened and adhesive assemblies using torque wrenches, test benches, and lifting equipment.
• Prepare and organise test setups for mechanical, thermal, optical and RF trials.
• Inspect components before integration and document each integration step.
• Identify and report any anomalies encountered during AIT activities.

Required profile

• Minimum 2 years of experience in satellite Assembly, Integration and Test (AIT).
• Ability to read mechanical drawings and part lists.
• Experience working in clean‑room environments (ISO7/ISO8).
• Good organisational skills and teamwork orientation.
• Conversational English at B2 level.

Required skills

• Mechanical drawing interpretation
• Precision assembly techniques (torque tightening, gluing)
• Electrical harness integration
• RF harness integration (waveguides, coaxial cables)
• Clean‑room operations (ISO7/ISO8)
• Use of torque wrenches and test benches
• Lifting equipment handling

What we offer

• Opportunity to work on cutting‑edge satellite projects.
• Collaborative environment with experienced engineers and technicians.
• Access to specialised tools and clean‑room facilities.
