About this role

Help Build Europe's Hypersonic Capability
At Hypersonica, we’re redefining what’s possible in European defence technology. We exist to deliver speed, resilience, and technological independence at a pace that sets a new standard. We are a small, elite team working on problems that matter, and solving them fast.
By joining Hypersonica, you’re not stepping into a predefined role. You’re joining a talent dense environment where every individual shapes the direction of the company. Our philosophy is to hire a small number of exceptional people with broad, deep technical capability, strong judgement, and the ability to operate autonomously.
We hire for talent, not rigid boxes. This role represents a business need, but the way it evolves will be shaped by the individual. If you’ve achieved what others said was impossible, or you bring a unique combination of skills that doesn’t fit a traditional mould, we want to hear from you. The work you do here directly contributes to Europe’s technological independence.

What you'll do

  • Support the delivery of hypersonic vehicles through electrical Assembly, Integration, and Test (AIT) activities.

  • Develop electrical assembly, wiring, and integration procedures from engineering drawings, schematics, and CAD data.

  • Translate avionics and electrical system designs into clear build instructions for harnessing, equipment installation, and system interfaces.

  • Define electrical integration sequences across subsystem and full vehicle builds.

  • Identify required tools, test equipment, consumables, and inspection steps for electrical integration and verification.

  • Develop and maintain electrical build documentation, ensuring traceability and configuration control.

  • Support installation and integration of avionics, sensors, and electrical subsystems.

  • Set up and support data acquisition and basic test systems for subsystem and vehicle‑level testing.

  • Collaborate across Mechanical, Systems, and Avionics teams to resolve integration challenges.

  • Support electrical integration testing and fault‑finding activities.

Who you are

  • A hands‑on Electrical AIT Engineer with experience integrating electrical or avionics systems into complex hardware.

  • Degree in Electrical, Electronic, or Aerospace Engineering (or similar).

  • Strong ability to read schematics, wiring diagrams, and CAD models and translate them into practical build steps.

  • Experience with wiring, harnessing, avionics integration, or test setups.

  • Familiarity with DAQ systems, instrumentation, or embedded systems is advantageous.

  • Detail‑oriented with a strong focus on quality and traceability.

  • Comfortable troubleshooting electrical integration and test issues.

What we offer

  • A mission driven environment with the opportunity to work on one of Europe’s most consequential defence challenges, with direct impact on sovereign capability and security.
  • Daily collaboration with top experts across engineering, operations, and defence, with real opportunity to learn from the best, contribute, and grow.
  • High ownership and autonomy; no time tracking, no micromanagement, just clear objectives and accountability for outcomes.
  • A fast paced environment where good ideas are implemented quickly, and feedback from test and flight drives real decisions.
  • A culture that values clarity, integrity, and excellence, and supports people who take initiative and push boundaries responsibly.
  • Competitive compensation and real share options aligned to responsibility and impact, not tenure or hierarchy.
