Power systems, onboard computers, sensors, networks and control systems all need to work together in demanding environments.
As an Avionics Engineer I, you'll join a high-performing team working on real flight hardware and software from day one.
This role is designed for early-career or graduate engineers who want hands-on experience across the full engineering lifecycle — from requirements and design through integration, verification, testing and operations.
You'll learn quickly, take on increasing responsibility, and contribute directly to systems that fly.
How you will contribute to our mission in getting Australia to space:
The below is designed to give you an idea of the role you will play.
There will be many more exciting and innovative things to do:
Contribute as part of a team of Avionics Engineers delivering avionics systems
Assist with integration of avionics units and subsystems including power, compute, sensors, communications and control interfaces
Support verification and validation (V&V;) activities at unit and subsystem level
Develop and execute test procedures, capture results and assist in closing out requirements
Support environmental, functional and integration testing campaigns
Assist with troubleshooting, investigations and corrective actions
Contribute to concept studies, trade studies and COTS evaluations under guidance of senior engineers
Support Research and Development activities and production engineering tasks
Coordinate with Mechanical, Propulsion, Manufacturing and Production teams
Engage with suppliers and subcontractors as required




Ensure engineering activities are documented and conducted in accordance with company policies and procedures
Other duties as requested by Management

NV1 Security Clearance eligible preferred.
Desired Qualifications, Skills and Experience:
Werecogniseyou may not meet all of the below, but don't let that deter you.
We are always looking for hard workers to join our team, so what are you waiting for?
Let's send Australia to space!
PCB development of analogue, digital and mixed-signal circuits
Hands-on electronics testing, troubleshooting and debugging
Embedded software development (baremetal, RTOS, embedded Linux)
FPGA/SoC hardware and software development
Integration and verification of avionics units
Electronics analysis including circuit simulation, power and thermal assessments
RF fundamentals including antenna design, link budgets or EMI testing
Space or aerospace engineering standards (e.g. GSFC-STD-****A, SMC-S-016, RCC 319, DO-254, DO-178)
Experience in space, aerospace or automotive industries
Exposure to waterfall and/or agile development frameworks
The ideal candidate is motivated, curious, practical and eager to build real systems, not just analyse them on paper.
