About the role
As a Senior Aerospace Engineer, you’ll play a key role in designing, building and testing the next generation of our drone platforms. You will be part of the mechanical engineering team developing the physical airframe and its components whilst working closely with embedded and software engineers to ensure seamless integration of all systems into our UAVs.
This is a highly practical role: you’ll own your designs from initial CAD through to prototyping and field testing. You’ll be deeply involved in mechanical integration, aerostructure design, manufacturability and collaborating with suppliers. Your work directly affects our mission to deliver reliable aerial systems for critical real-world use.
As a senior engineer you will be guiding and mentoring the more junior engineers in the mechanical team. You will also lead the more complex, sometimes cross-functional, projects and act as a tech lead.
