Take Flight Testing to the Next Level
Are you an experienced Flight Test Engineer looking for the opportunity to work with advanced uncrewed aircraft, real operational challenges and technology that moves quickly from test to deployment?
Join a growing Test & Evaluation team working across a range of UAS platforms and mission payloads. You'll join a team in the midst of growth and play a key role in turning engineering requirements into safe, effective flight trials — planning campaigns, assessing risk, analysing results and providing the insight needed to develop better aircraft.
This is a role for someone who enjoys being where engineering, flight operations and data meet.
Own the Trial. Shape the Outcome.
You'll be involved throughout the flight-test lifecycle, including:
- Planning, managing and reporting flight-test campaigns across different UAS platforms and payloads
- Capturing trial requirements and turning them into clear, achievable test objectives
- Designing trials that generate meaningful and actionable engineering data
- Conducting Test Flying Readiness Reviews (TFRR) in line with Test & Evaluation policy
- Leading or contributing to test-hazard and trial-risk reviews
- Working with engineering and operational teams to understand what needs to be tested and how
- Deploying with operational crews to conduct flight-test activity
- Analysing results and providing timely, accurate insight to engineering teams
- Adapting plans as technology, priorities and operational requirements change
You won't simply be executing a predefined test schedule. You'll help define the test approach, manage the risk and determine what the evidence tells us.
Work With Technology That's Still Evolving
UAS technology is developing rapidly. New aircraft, payloads and mission systems bring unfamiliar problems — and that's part of the attraction.
You'll need to be comfortable working with new technologies, investigating unexpected results and adapting your approach when the test programme changes. xgikmsk
We're looking for someone who is driven by data and testing — someone who wants to understand not just whether something worked, but what the evidence tells us and how that insight can make the product better.
