Description
Help Build Europe's Hypersonic Capability
At Hypersonica, we’re redefining what’s possible in European defence technology. We exist to deliver speed, resilience, and technological independence at a pace that sets a new standard. We are a small, elite team working on problems that matter, and solving them fast.
By joining Hypersonica, you’re not stepping into a predefined role. You’re joining a talent dense environment where every individual shapes the direction of the company. Our philosophy is to hire a small number of exceptional people with broad, deep technical capability, strong judgement, and the ability to operate autonomously.
We hire for talent, not rigid boxes. This role represents a business need, but the way it evolves will be shaped by the individual. If you’ve achieved what others said was impossible, or you bring a unique combination of skills that doesn’t fit a traditional mould, we want to hear from you. The work you do here directly contributes to Europe’s technological independence.
This role is specifically aimed at current or former UK artillery officers, air defence officers, fires officers, targeting officers or similar, especially those from the Royal Artillery, who want to bring operational military judgement into a high-paced defence startup.
You will sit close to business development, programmes, engineering and senior leadership, helping translate operational requirements into executable plans, customer material, programme structure and real capability.
It is a role for someone who understands fires, targeting, operational effect and the UK defence environment, and wants to apply that knowledge to building new capability fast.
If you want to bring operational judgement into a small, elite team building sovereign hypersonic capability for Europe and NATO, and help move critical defence technology faster than the traditional system allows, we should speak.
