AI Summary
A Junior Aerospace Engineer supports production, assembly, flight operations, and cross-functional tasks across hardware and software in a fast-paced, rotating role.
About this role
At LiveLink Aerospace, we don’t do "ordinary." We are pioneering the future of aerospace technology, and we move fast. If you are looking for a rigid, desk-bound 9-to-5 where every day looks the same, this isn't the role for you. But if you want to be at the heart of cutting-edge engineering, learning from the ground up, and directly impacting real-world flight tech, welcome aboard.
We are seeking a versatile, hands-on Junior Aerospace Engineer to join our team in Havant. This is a highly varied role designed to give you a massive breadth of experience. You will not be siloed into one department; instead, you will rotate through and support multiple disciplines, building a world-class foundation for your engineering career.
