Hypersonix is an Australian aerospace and advanced manufacturing company developing reusable, hydrogen-powered scramjet aircraft. We're looking for curious, driven early-career engineers to join our team and work on real hypersonic programs from day one.
Your mentor will guide you as you contribute to real design, analysis, test, build and documentation work. You'll own scoped tasks, take part in design reviews and technical discussions, and follow a structured development plan built around our competency-based career ladder. You can also gain exposure to other disciplines to help find your best fit, whether that's Structures & Mechanical, Propulsion & Fluids, Avionics, GNC & Software, or Systems & Assurance.
You'll get real work, not busywork, plus hands-on mentoring and a clear development pathway in one of the most exciting areas of Australian aerospace.
Apply now and help us build the future of hypersonic flight.
Hypersonix Launch Systems builds and operates hydrogen-fuelled scramjet powered autonomous aircraft for a range of government, defence, aerospace, and commercial customers.
The first hypersonic flyer to launch is DART AE (Additive Engineering). DART AE is a 3.5 metre long hypersonic aircraft that is powered by a single SPARTAN scramjet engine and makes significant use of 3-D printed high temperature metal alloys. It uses hydrogen fuel and will fly at Mach 7.
The launch is part of the HyCAT program by the Defense Innovation Unit. Hypersonix was the first company to be selected for the program in March 2023, targeting a first launch for Q1 2026 in the United States.
Hypersonix is revolutionizing hypersonic flight technology with a cloud-based software-as-a-service digital twin. By combining extensive knowledge and data from atmospheric flight tests, this virtual replica accurately predicts real-world outcomes. It allows rapid and repetitive testing of materials, designs, manufacturing techniques and enables global 3D printing of components through secure additive manufacturing.
Hypersonix product road map also includes VISR, a high-speed suborbital Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) and rapid airfreight flyer demonstrator as well as Delta Velos Orbiter for small satellite launch in a non-ballistic trajectory.
