Head of production - for in-orbit electric spacepropulsion ThrustMe is a deep-tech industrial scaleup in the spacesector, leading the transition from few, tailored sub-systems, tofully integrated and smart propulsion solutions at industrialscale. We are now entering a new growth phase. With more than 200propulsion systems delivered and close to 100 already in orbit, weare now scaling up our industrial production capacity to meetincreasing global demandwhile preparing for the next generation ofour propulsion products. To support this transition, we arerecruiting a Head of Production to lead the scale-up of ourmanufacturing operations. Your mission: You will take fullownership of the production line of our NPT30-I2 system, ourflagship electric propulsion solution. Your first objective will beto increase capacity to 25 then 40 units per month, whilemaintaining the stringent quality standards required for launch andin-space performance. In parallel, you will work closely with ourproduct and engineering teams to set up the industrial blueprintfor our upcoming JPT150 system, and establish the production linefor this new product. Your responsibilities: - Drive the scale-upof production capacity for the NPT30-I2 system, with fullresponsibility for lead time, quality, and cost. - Grow andstructure a high-performing production team, and promote a cultureof continuous improvement. - Collaborate with R&D, ProductManagement, Quality, and Supply Chain to ensure smoothindustrialization of the JPT150 system. - Implement and optimizeproduction processes, flows, and tools, including documentation andtraceability. - Define and track production OKRs and KPIs, andreport regularly to the management team. - Take part inproduction-related client discussions, including audits andnon-conformity investigations. Your profile: - You have a proventrack record in scaling production in a deep-tech or industrialenvironment (space, aerospace, automotive, hardware tech, etc.). -You are comfortable working in a fast-paced, cross-functional team,and enjoy turning complex challenges into structured, actionablesolutions. - You combine strategic thinking with hands-onleadership, and are driven by results, quality, and teamdevelopment. - Experience with space-grade hardware orhigh-reliability components is a strong plus. - You speak Frenchfluently and master business English Why join us: - Be part of ateam delivering mission-critical technology already flying inspace. - Play a central role in industrializing a globallyrecognized space startup. - Join a collaborative, diverse, andambitious team working at the forefront of the Industrial Spaceera.
