Working in the AIT Team
The AIT team is at the heart of turning ideas into real, orbit-ready satellites. They’re the workshop where Open Cosmos missions come to life — taking designs from paper to physical hardware.
From assembling delicate electronic boards to fitting structural panels, wiring harnesses, and payloads, AIT ensures everything fits and functions flawlessly.
They run rigorous testing — vibration, thermal vacuum, functional, and performance checks — to make sure each satellite can survive the extreme conditions of launch and space.

It’s hands-on, fast-paced, and mission-critical - it doesn’t get much cooler than this!
What will you be doing?
Building our satellites is at the heart of an AIT Technicians job. You’ll also integrate the satellites into the launcher ready for the journey into space!
You will be manufacturing some of the subsystems and harnesses that will be integrated into the satellites.
Throughout the AIT campaign, you will not only be assembling the satellite, but also supporting prototyping and modifications of electronics boards and harnesses. You may be required to travel to some of our other locations to support workload punctually.
You will also support aspects relating to quality and stock management, keeping clear and appropriate documentation. Throughout all stages you are engaging with colleagues from R&D and AIT departments.
What you need to be successful
For this role you need to be based in our Barcelona, Spain location.
