Mechatronics / Electromechanical Technician (Connected Mobility and Telematics Systems) in München

Your mission

You are a dynamic and results-driven technician or engineer reporting to a Product Manager, leading the assembly, integration, testing, and deployment of OIQ's mobile asset telematics system solution(s) across automotive, transport/logistics, and agricultural environments.

This role blends mechanical integration, electrical systems, and communication technology, ideal for a technician who thrives at the intersection of hardware, field deployment, and connected mobility, delivering exceptional customer experiences aligned to the company’s strategic and innovative direction.

Across Design and Integration , you will

• Assemble and integrate telematics devices, antennas, and sensors onto vehicles, trailers, and agricultural machinery;
• Support mechanical and electrical layout of telematics enclosures, harnesses, and connectors for rugged outdoor conditions (dust, vibration, temperature, moisture);
• Integrate GNSS, LTE/4G/5G, NB-Io T, Lo Ra, BLE, and satellite NTN modems into mobile platforms; and
• Conduct bench testing and field trials to validate communication links and mechanical robustness.

Across Testing and Validation , you will

• Execute RF and connectivity validation for hybrid TN / NTN links under real-world mobility conditions;
• Perform environmental and mechanical testing: vibration, temperature cycling, ingress protection, and shock;
• Use lab instrumentation (spectrum analyzer, multimeter, data logger) to measure signal performance and verify installations; and
• Develop and maintain test procedures, fixtures, and diagnostic tools for deployment QA

Across Deployment and Support , you will

• Install and commission telematics systems on commercial vehicles, agricultural machines, and logistics assets;
• Work with fleet operators to optimize antenna placement, cable routing, and power integration;
• Support firmware teams by capturing field telemetry and diagnosing connectivity or sensor issues; and
• Document installation schematics, cable drawings, and site test reports

Across Continuous Improvement , you will

• Provide feedback to design and manufacturing teams to enhance system durability and ease of installation;
• Contribute to root-cause analysis of field issues (connectivity, power, mechanical stress); and
• Recommend and qualify component or supplier improvements for rugged mobile environments

Your profile

Required

• Degree, diploma, or equivalent experience in Mechatronics, Electromechanical Engineering, Automotive Electronics, or similar field;
• 3-7 years (Technicial) or 2-5 years (Engineer) of hands-on integration or maintenance experience with connected, embedded, or telematics hardware;
• Solid understanding of DC electrical systems (12 V / 24 V), sensors, and CAN, ISO BUS and/or similar communications interfaces;
• Proficiency in mechanical assembly, crimping, wiring harnesses, and enclosure ruggedization;
• Experience installing or testing vehicle-mounted telematics or Io T systems;
• Demonstrable experience in project planning, Agile/Scrum methodologies and workflows
• Having built and tested a product from scratch (coding; hands-on practical experience; field testing);
• Knowledgewithtoolssuchas Jira, Confluence, Outline, Git Hub, Microsoft Suite;

Preferred

• Experience with GNSS, LTE/4G/5G, NB-Io T, Lo Ra, and satellite (NTN) communications such as Iridium, Inmarsat, One Web, Starlink, AST Space Mobile or emerging 5G-NTN modems;
• Knowledge of RF design principles, antenna placement, and electromagnetic compatibility in vehicle contexts;
• Familiarity with agricultural and fleet management systems (CAN, ISOBUS, J1939);
• Use of CAD (Solid Works/Fusion 360) and electrical design software (Altium, Ki Cad, or similar); and
• Demonstrated ability to work in lab and field settings: from bench prototype development and integration (parts soldering and integration; end-to-end testing; unit and system-level rework) to tractor, truck and / or offroad construction vehicle integration.

Personal Attributes

• Practical, resourceful, and methodical: a true hands-on builder and problem solver;
• Comfortable collaborating with multidisciplinary teams (mechanical, RF, Cloud, firmware, and field operations);
• Clear, precise communicator: able to write concise test reports and installation instructions;
• Curious about how connectivity transforms mobility: eager to bridge hardware, software, and field performance; and
• Willingness to travel to test sites, farms, logistics hubs, or customer facilities as needed
