SYOS designs and manufactures advanced uncrewed systems across air, land, sea, and subsurface domains. We combine intelligent engineering, AI-driven autonomy, and innovative design to create next-generation vehicles operating in some of the world's most challenging environments.
We’re looking for an experienced Electrical Design Engineer – UAS to support the design, integration and technical assurance of SYOS’s Uncrewed Air Systems.
Working closely with the Air Vehicle Design Lead and our core engineering team in New Zealand, you’ll validate and adapt existing electrical designs for UK production, ensuring aircraft electrical systems, wiring designs and associated technical documentation meet applicable engineering, safety and regulatory requirements.
This is a hands-on technical specialist role involving safety-critical aircraft subsystems, including avionics, communications and Flight Termination Systems (FTS). You’ll contribute to design modifications, system integration, testing and fault investigation, helping ensure our UAS platforms meet demanding performance, safety and compliance standards.
Our mission is to extend human capability, protect people, and deliver operational advantage through accessible, scalable, and intelligent autonomous technology.
Join a team of engineers, builders, and innovators pushing boundaries and solving real-world challenges across robotics, aerospace, and autonomy.
If you’re an electrical engineering specialist who enjoys solving complex aerospace challenges and wants to help shape the future of autonomous aviation, we’d love to hear from you.
