Senior Aerospace Engineer

At LiveLink Aerospace, we engineer hardware and software that dictate the future of uncrewed and autonomous flight. We operate at the bleeding edge of aerospace technology, stripping away corporate bureaucracy to focus purely on rapid innovation, rigorous engineering, and deployment. We are looking for an elite technical leader—someone who has navigated the complexities of aerospace development and is ready to architect the next generation of flight systems.

We are seeking a high-calibre Senior Aerospace Engineer to join our Havant facility as a primary technical authority. This is not a standard senior role where you manage spreadsheets and attend endless meetings. This is a highly strategic, hands-on leadership position for a seasoned engineer who lives and breathes complex system architecture. You will have absolute ownership over critical technical pathways, guiding a multidisciplinary team to turn conceptual requirements into flight-proven reality. You will be the technical backstop for the hardest problems we face, making the decisive calls that balance performance, weight, safety, and operational capability.

At the senior level, your focus shifts to the macro

• Architecting: Designing full-system architectures that seamlessly integrate airframes, avionics, payloads, and ground control.
• Orchestrating: Driving the engineering lifecycle from first-principles design through prototyping, rig testing, and live flight operations.
• Mentoring: Elevating the engineering standards of the entire team, mentoring junior and mid-level engineers across both hardware and software disciplines.
• Pioneering: Anticipating technical bottlenecks months in advance and engineering robust solutions before they impact the mission.
