Lead integration and testing of avionics, comms, and navigation systems Work hands-on with electronics, embedded controllers, and flight hardware Collaborate on production-ready systems for next-gen airborne platforms
An Australian R&D and manufacturing company specialising in cutting-edge aerospace systems is expanding its team and now hiring an Avionics Engineer to lead the integration and testing of advanced avionics, communication, and navigation systems used in next-generation airborne platforms.
In this role, you will work at the intersection of electronics, networking, and control systems, ensuring seamless communication between flight‐critical components. You will be hands‐on with avionics hardware, embedded controllers, and real‐world system testing. This position plays a vital role in turning complex designs into reliable, production‐ready technologies.
This is a full‐time role based in Adelaide, with full relocation support provided for interstate candidates. Due to the nature of the business (defence and aerospace), Australian citizenship is required .
Key Responsibilities
* Integrate and test avionics systems, communication units, and navigation sensors
* Interface flight control units, autopilots, and embedded controllers with onboard electronics
* Troubleshoot and validate system performance across hardware and networking layers
* Collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams to deliver production‐ready systems
* Support end‐to‐end system development, from prototype to manufacturing handover
Requirements
* Strong hands‐on experience with electronics, system integration, and avionics hardware
* Solid understanding of networking and communication protocols used in embedded and airborne systems
* Experience interfacing with flight control or autopilot units and sensor systems
* Ability to work with engineering teams on testing and validating integrated systems
* Practical problem‐solving skills and confidence working with real hardware in test environments
Desirable but not essential
* Background in electric vehicles (EVs), aerospace, or military‐grade electronics
* Familiarity with ruggedised systems and field‐testing practices
* Experience working with MIL‐SPEC or other defence standards
