A propulsion system is provided for an aircraft. This propulsion system includes a geartrain, a propulsor rotor, a turbine engine core, an electric machine and an accessory gearbox system. The propulsor rotor is disposed to a first side of the geartrain. The turbine engine core is disposed to a second side of the geartrain. The turbine engine core is operatively coupled to the propulsor rotor through the geartrain. The electric machine is disposed to the second side of the geartrain. The electric machine is operatively coupled to the propulsor rotor and/or the turbine engine core through the geartrain. The accessory gearbox system is operatively coupled to the turbine engine core. The accessory gearbox system is circumferentially offset from the electric machine about a centerline axis of the turbine engine core. The accessory gearbox system axially overlaps the electric machine along the centerline axis of the turbine engine core.
