Join a fast-growing UAV specialist at the forefront of next-generation autonomous flight. We design, build and test advanced unmanned aerial systems for defence, commercial and research applications — and we’re looking for a Graduate Aerospace Engineer ready to make an immediate impact.

What you’ll be doing

  • Supporting the design, analysis and optimisation of UAV airframes, propulsion systems and control surfaces
  • Running aerodynamic modelling, CFD studies and performance simulations
  • Assisting with flight-test planning, instrumentation and data analysis
  • Working alongside senior engineers on structural design, materials selection and system integration
  • Contributing to R&D projects pushing the boundaries of endurance, stability and autonomy

What we’re looking for

  • Degree in Aerospace Engineering (or related discipline)
  • Strong understanding of aerodynamics, flight mechanics and propulsion
  • Experience with CAD/CAE tools (SolidWorks, CATIA, Siemens NX, ANSYS, MATLAB/Simulink)
  • Passion for UAVs, robotics or autonomous systems
  • Hands-on mindset, curiosity and willingness to learn fast

What we offer

  • Exposure to full UAV lifecycle: concept design build test flight
  • Cutting-edge projects with real-world impact
  • Mentorship from experienced aerospace and autonomy engineers
  • Rapid career progression in a high-growth environment

If you want to build aircraft that actually fly — this is the place to start your career.
