Your Role

Are you a dedicated engineer looking to shape the future of the aviation industry? We are now seeking a driven Test Engineer who wants to work on exciting and challenging projects alongside our dynamic team of about 25 employees. Here, you have a unique opportunity to be part of the journey to new heights, where we not only develop fighter aircraft but also create the future's testing methodologies and technical solutions in the aviation field.

As a test engineer, you will work closely with fighter aircraft and have the opportunity to plan and conduct testing both in aircraft, simulators, and rigs. You will develop testing methodologies and programs, lead tests at various test stations, and analyze results - a central role where you truly make a difference. During flight tests, you will monitor the flight in real-time and ensure that each moment is executed with precision and safety.

You will be a key player in our projects, where we work closely with a test team that may consist of pilots, development engineers, and other test engineers. Together, we take the products all the way from design to a validated solution.
