It is often forgotten that the Aerospace & Defense feature also none technical jobs such as Sales and Business Development, corporate, finance, accounting, contract management,…  Here are few jobs that you can find in the Aerospace & Defense industry.

  • Mechanical Engineer: Mechanical engineers are demanded quite heavily in this domain as they are required to develop and modify various parts of missiles, space crafts, aero planes. Besides, R&D is also another aspect of their job profile
  • Spacecraft/Aircraft Designer: As more and more private airlines came into existence, the demand for aircraft designers has increased tremendously. Besides, with the development of space engineering sector in many countries the demand for spacecraft designers have also increased over the years
  • Military Aerospace Engineer: Many countries like India, Chin, Israel have been investing billions of dollars in their air force sector, this has created lots of opportunities and openings for the engineers in the military aerospace sector
  • Drafter: Drawing blueprints and designs is an important job roles in aerospace sector. There are lots of opportunities for the drafters in this sector
  • Technician: Like in many other engineering sectors, the demand for technicians in this market is quite high due to necessity to manufacture parts and complete systems.
  • Data processing manager: aerospace companies are generally works with large amount of data and simulations in order to keep them in perfect order and run different simulations and get the result form those tests the data processing engineers are required. This profile includes managing, designing and assembling different types of data with the help of super computer.
  • Test engineer: everything starting from a tiny sensor to big parts of a rocket or place before starting the production they company needs to taste it. So they often need test engineers who can test those things and get the confirmation about the safety and successful operation of the same.
  • R&D engineer: research and development is part and parcel of the aerospace industry. In order to bring new technologies and advance equipments in the market first they need to do extensive research. And R&D engineer thus have greater role to play in this industry.
  • Project manager: this job can be done by a mechanical or electrical engineer based on the project. To build an aircraft or rocket several engineering knowledge comes in to play in order to create an efficient and superior machine. Thus a project engineer makes sure that part of his job is done duly by his team.
