Reporting to the Director, Hardware Reliability, you will play a key role within New Product Development (NPD) and sustaining engineering by applying structured reliability engineering methods.

This is a hands-on engineering role. You will work directly with hardware, data and cross-functional teams to build reliability into our products. Not from a distance, but at the bench and in the design.

This position is based at our Lübeck office and requires regular onsite presence, with some flexibility for remote work.

In this role, a typical day will look like:

• Own and execute reliability test programs (HALT, ALT, vibration, thermal cycling) from planning through documented conclusion, including hands-on test setup and instrumentation

• Lead root cause analysis for electrical, mechanical and electro-mechanical failures

• Drive DFMEA activities in NPD teams: facilitate sessions, track open mitigations, and close them with engineering evidence

• Maintain and continuously improve the FRACAS process; extract trends from field, warranty and service data and translate them into actionable engineering improvements

• Perform component and assembly lifetime assessments, work directly with suppliers on reliability requirements and qualification data

• Provide clear, traceable technical documentation and present findings and recommendations to engineering teams

• Act as the go-to reliability resource on cross-functional NPD programs. Not in a consulting role, but as an active engineering contributor with accountability for outcomes

The essential requirements of the job include:

• Degree in electrical, mechanical, mechatronics or related engineering discipline

• Hands-on experience in reliability testing and failure analysis. You have personally run tests, torn down hardware, and identified root causes

• Solid working knowledge of reliability methods: FMEA/DFMEA, FRACAS, Weibull analysis, accelerated life testing

• Comfortable with data analysis tools (Excel, Python or similar) and able to draw defensible engineering conclusions from field and test data

• Structured, ownership-oriented problem solver. You close problems, not just document them

• Able to work independently and drive progress without close supervision

• Clear, factual communication in English; German is a plus
