Position Overview
We’re on the lookout for exceptionally talented individuals who are studying for an engineering degree (mechanical, aerospace, materials) or similar (applied physics, data science, maths etc.) to join our Applied Sciences team for a 12-month placement starting in summer 2027.
Alongside design, engineering and lab testing, we use a mix of physics-based models and machine learning techniques to design and improve technologies for the real world.
