Job Description:

Electronics Engineer (Contract) – Salisbury (Onsite) – £550/day – Inside IR35 – 6 Months

Join a growing engineering team designing the systems behind next-generation Uncrewed Aerial Vehicles. These aircraft are already out there mapping deforestation and serving classified defence projects that push the edge of innovation.

This is a six-month contract where you’ll be on-site in Salisbury, working closely with a multidisciplinary team involved in prototyping, flight testing, and development of innovative aircraft systems.

You’re an electronics engineer who wants to see your designs in action. You should be confident in your design skills, able to remain calm under pressure when things don’t work first time, and collaborative enough to work shoulder-to-shoulder with mechanical, software, and systems teams.

This role involves designing the core electronics that power real aircraft, including digital electronics design, schematics, and layouts. You will be an integral part of the project, not just an observer.

For immediate consideration, please apply.
