Purser Industries
Career

Build something that flies.

We're a UK team designing, building and flying our own airframes end to end — composites, avionics and flight software, all in house. If that's the kind of problem you want to work on, we'd like to hear from you.

Why Purser

Real ownership.

Because we design and manufacture everything in house, the distance between an idea and a flying variant is weeks, not programme cycles. That means the people who build things here see their work fly — and see it used, by real crews, quickly.

What we're building

The ICARUS family, and more.

From the in-service ICARUS-1 to the jet-powered ICARUS-3 currently in build, plus the counter-UAS and support systems around them — there's a full pipeline of hard engineering problems ahead, not just one product to maintain.

Trials run until the work is done, often well past sunset.

Where you'd fit

We're currently hiring across four areas.

Lead engineer

Composites, airframe design, avionics, flight software — the people who take a requirement and turn it into something that flies.

Project manager

Coordinating build schedules, customer requirements and delivery — keeping a fast-moving engineering pipeline on track.

Pilot

Flying trials and demonstrations, and training customer crews on the systems they'll be operating.

Field deployed operator

On-site support — launching and operating ICARUS systems for customers in the field.
