Grob Aircraft has been designing and building aircraft in Bavaria for decades - from trainers and composite airframes to some of the most advanced aeronautical structures in the world. Engineering excellence and precision manufacturing are what we do.

Together with Helsing, our mother company and Europe's leading defence AI company, we are now taking on our most ambitious programme yet: the CA-1 Europa, Europe's first AI combat aircraft. This is not a study or a roadmap. We are designing, building, and testing - right now, right here.

We are a hands-on team of engineers who build things that fly. We take pride in short paths from idea to prototype, in solving hard problems pragmatically, and in seeing our work take to the sky. We are looking for people who think the same way - and who understand that this work matters for the security and sovereignty of Europe.

The Role

You will develop and integrate the mission systems that give the CA-1 Europa its operational capabilities. Your work will go from the lab bench to the flight line.

Concretely, that means:

• Developing and integrating airborne mission and sensor systems

• Designing airborne and ground system architectures that work under real operational conditions

• Running lab, ground, and flight tests until the systems perform flawlessly

• Ensuring reliable data flow between aircraft and ground systems

• Keeping everything compliant with aviation safety and regulatory standards

• Getting your hands dirty troubleshooting hardware and software issues — in the lab and on the ramp

What You Bring

• Degree in Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or similar

• Experience with aviation systems, avionics, or software-based mission systems

• Strong problem-solving skills in both development and operational settings

• A preference for doing over discussing

• Bonus: familiarity with systems engineering, avionics certification standards, or qualification processes
