All Orbits, All Planets - Join us on our journey
Gilmour Space is the leading Australian rocket company, pioneering next-generation hybrid propulsion technologies for small satellite launch vehicles.
Are you a creative and experienced Avionics Engineer II looking for a dynamic role where your skills will make a real impact?
Well now's your chance!
We're building orbital launch vehicles in Australia — and avionics is at the centre of that effort.
Power, compute, sensors, networks and control all must work together, under vibration, temperature extremes and real mission pressure.
As an Avionics Engineer II, you'll be part of the team responsible for delivering flight-ready avionics systems.
You'll work across the full lifecycle — from early requirements and architecture through integration, verification, validation and operations.
This is a hands‐on role in a fast‐moving startup environment where engineers are trusted with real responsibility and real hardware.
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 creative things to do:
Plan and execute verification and validation (V&V;) activities at unit, subsystem and vehicle level
Develop test procedures, conduct test campaigns and analyse results to close requirements
Contribute to the development and delivery of avionics systems for Launch Vehicle programs
Participate in requirements definition, architecture development, design reviews and system‐level decision making
Support system integration of power, compute,



sensors, actuators, communications and network subsystems
Support environmental, functional and integration testing including troubleshooting and root cause investigation
Act as Responsible Engineer for avionics units or subsystems where required
Conduct trade studies, concept assessments and COTS evaluations to inform technical direction
Support vehicle‐level integration, launch site operations and real‐time issue resolution
Coordinate closely with Mechanical, Propulsion, GNC, Manufacturing and Production teams
Engage with suppliers and subcontractors to ensure technical alignment and delivery
Document engineering activities in accordance with company policies, plans and procedures
Undertake junior leadership responsibilities and lead small product teams when applicable
Mandatory Qualifications, Skills and Experience:
Bachelor's Degree in Electronics, Computer Systems, Mechatronics Engineering or relevant qualification
2+ years of professional experience in avionics, embedded systems or related engineering environments (excluding internships)
Experience supporting system integration, testing or verification activities
Ability to operate effectively in dynamic, fast‐paced environments




Demonstrated resilience and sound judgement in high‐pressure situations
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
Embedded software development (baremetal, RTOS, embedded Linux)
FPGA/SoC hardware and software development
Hands‐on electronics testing, debugging and integration
Experience with avionics system integration and verification
Electronics analysis including circuit simulation, power and thermal assessments
Experience in space, aerospace or automotive industries
Familiarity with Systems Engineering practises and relevant space standards (GSFC-STD-****A, SMC-S-016, RCC 319, DO-254, DO-178)
Experience working within waterfall and/or agile development frameworks
