Avionics Engineer - eVTOL Aircraft

About the role

Ansius is hiring, on behalf of its client, an experienced Avionics Engineer to design, develop, integrate and validate advanced avionics systems for electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. The role covers flight control, navigation, communication and sensor integration, working closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams to ensure safe aircraft operation and compliance with aviation regulations and certification standards.

Key responsibilities

• Lead the design and development of avionics systems, including flight control interfaces, navigation systems, communication systems and electronic components.
• Integrate and calibrate avionics sensors such as IMUs, GPS and air data sensors.
• Design communication systems, data links and communication protocols for autonomous and piloted operations.
• Collaborate with flight control engineers to integrate avionics interfaces with the overall flight control system.
• Work with powertrain and systems engineering teams on avionics integration within the eVTOL architecture.
• Plan and run test programmes to validate performance, reliability and functionality.
• Identify and resolve technical issues with cross-functional teams.
• Ensure compliance with aviation regulations and certification requirements, and support engagement with regulatory authorities and certification activities.
• Develop systems for flight data recording, monitoring, diagnostics and post-flight analysis.
