About this job

<div><strong>Help Build Europe's Hypersonic Capability</strong></div> <div> </div> <div>At <strong>Hypersonica</strong>, we’re redefining what’s possible in European defence technology. We exist to deliver speed, resilience, and technological independence at a pace that sets a new standard. We are a small, elite team working on problems that matter, and solving them fast.</div> <div> </div> <div>By joining <strong>Hypersonica</strong>, you’re not stepping into a predefined role. You’re joining a talent dense environment where every individual shapes the direction of the company. Our philosophy is to hire a small number of exceptional people with broad, deep technical capability, strong judgement, and the ability to operate autonomously.</div> <div> </div> <div>We hire for talent, not rigid boxes. This role represents a business need, but the way it evolves will be shaped by the individual. If you’ve achieved what others said was impossible, or you bring a unique combination of skills that doesn’t fit a traditional mould, we want to hear from you. The work you do here directly contributes to Europe’s technological independence.</div><br><strong>What you'll do</strong><br><div> <div> <ul role="list" style="list-style-type: disc;"> <li
