We are a company dedicated to developing advanced propulsion systems for the space industry based on three key principles: high efficiency, sustainability, and reusability. We are revolutionizing the space industry with groundbreaking innovations that allow us to offer the best performance-to-cost propulsion systems.

Our goal is to be the propulsion provider for the next generation of spacecraft, which are essential to meet the demands and compete in the booming space market of the next decade.

We are a passionate, multicultural, and multidisciplinary team pushing the boundaries of what is possible in space propulsion technology.

We are looking for talented professionals to join our international team in Barcelona and Toulouse. We want to be a key player in improving diversity in the Aerospace sector, as, in Pangea, we believe that diversity (gender, age, race, sexual orientation, beliefs, disability, culture, etc.) is a key to success. Within Pangea, everyone can grow with the same opportunities. We encourage you to apply. Individually, we are different, but together we are an amazing team!

We are looking for a Quality intern in Barcelona:

About the role:

As a Quality Intern, you’ll work directly with the Head of Operations and lead engineers to set up the foundations of a robust quality management system. From documenting internal procedures to supporting supplier audits and product traceability, you’ll have a hands-on role in ensuring that every Pangea product meets the highest standards of reliability, traceability, and compliance.

Key Responsibilities:

· Assist in defining and documenting quality processes and procedures across manufacturing, testing, and procurement.

· Support the creation and implementation of inspection plans, checklists, and acceptance criteria for critical components.

· Work with engineers and technicians to establish traceability workflows for parts, materials, and assemblies.

· Help design and roll out a non-conformance tracking system, including root cause analysis and corrective actions.

· Participate in the selection and setup of quality tools and platforms (e.g., QMS systems, part inspection tools).

· Assist in creating digital tools (e.g., SharePoint libraries, forms, issue trackers) to support documentation control and process standardization.

· Support supplier quality evaluations and incoming inspection activities.

· Learn how aerospace companies align with ESA, ECSS, EN9100, and REACH standards — and help us get there.

What you need to be successful:

· Final-year Bachelor’s or Master’s student in Aerospace Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Materials Science, or similar.

· Highly organized, detail-oriented, and eager to build systems from scratch.

· Interest in aerospace quality standards and hardware reliability.

· Familiarity with ISO9001, EN9100, ECSS, or other aerospace/industrial standards is a plus (but not required).

· Hands-on attitude — you're comfortable rolling up your sleeves and diving into technical details with engineers and technicians.

· Fluent in English; Spanish is a plus.

Not hitting every requirement? Research suggests that some people tend to hesitate when it comes to job applications if they don't meet all the desired qualifications. Here at Pangea Aerospace, we're committed to fostering a workplace that values diversity, inclusivity, and authenticity. So, if you're enthusiastic about this role but your prior experience doesn't align perfectly with every qualification mentioned in the job description, we still strongly encourage you to apply. You might just be the ideal candidate for this position or other opportunities within our organization.
