We elevate critical missions.
Engineering the leading electrified aviation platform - made in Europe for those who protect, serve, and sustain what matters most.
ERC System is a Munich-based aviation startup that develops electrified aviation solutions for the most critical missions. The company’s hybrid-electric aircraft takes off vertically like a helicopter, but flies forward wing-borne, like an airplane. It provides high speeds, long ranges, and cost-efficient operations for patient, passenger, and cargo transport. ERC’s flagship product is a crewed, hybrid-electric lift-and-cruise aircraft optimized for interhospital patient transport.
Founded in 2020 by experienced aerospace professionals, ERC currently has approximately 60 employees and is backed by aerospace powerhouse IABG, a leading provider of testing and certification services for aircraft, spacecraft, and defense solutions. The team focuses on heads-down engineering, capital-efficient development, and designing aircraft that fulfill highest customer and regulatory requirements. Further Information on: www.erc-system.com

As Hybrid Powertrain System Engineer, your mission is to drive the system design and integration of our hybrid powertrain for our next-generation aircraft. You bring deep expertise in conventional hybrid powertrain components - including combustion engines, gas turbines, and fuel systems - and translate program needs into a robust, certifiable system architecture.
You define, validate, and manage requirements on system and equipment level, and you negotiate and evaluate technical solutions within the engineering team and together with external suppliers. Beyond the design work, you take ownership of powertrain testing campaigns: you support the design, build-up, commissioning, and operation of the powertrain testbench, ensuring safe and efficient execution.
Working close to high-voltage and high-power hardware is part of the job - and thanks to your hands-on testing background, you enable reliable development progress from concept through verification.
