• Graduate Engineer: For recent graduates with a completed degree and relevant project, team or industry experience.

What you’ll bring

• A completed or nearly completed Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in mechanical, aerospace, mechatronic, electrical, software or a related engineering discipline
• Strong engineering fundamentals, sharp problem-solving skills and great attention to detail
• Clear communication and a willingness to learn, take feedback and own your work
• Adaptability in a fast-moving environment
• Right to live and work in Australia, and the ability to obtain any required security clearances
• Experience with tools such as Siemens NX, MATLAB/Simulink, Python, FEA/CFD, or lab and test equipment
• Student engineering teams, competitions or personal build projects
• Previous internship or cadetship experience
• A genuine passion for hypersonics, aircraft design or space
