CTO - Systems

Evolved Aerospace develops mission-critical aerospace systems designed for real operational use.

We combine autonomy, software, sensing, and systems integration to deliver capability that performs in contested and constrained environments — not just in test settings.

Our work is guided by a simple principle: platforms are means, not the objective. Mission outcomes define success.

* No recruitment agencies*

As CTO, Systems, you own mission systems and system architecture across Evolved.

This is a hands‑on technical leadership role, not a research role and not a business role. You are accountable for technical correctness, architectural coherence, and system‑level decisions.

You are also a customer‑facing technical leader, involved early, setting expectations, shaping solutions, and ensuring technical credibility.

• Proven ownership of end‑to‑end system behaviour on complex, mission‑or‑safety‑critical platforms.
• Experience being accountable for system‑level requirements, interfaces, and architectural guardrails.
• Made binding technical trade‑offs under real operational constraints.
