About these results

What is on this page

Defence Careers is tracking 409 open senior roles, read directly from employers' own careers pages rather than reposted from another board. Most are in Germany (153), the United Kingdom (80) and Spain (44), across 15 countries in total.

Of those, 409 are pitched at senior level, 63 can be done remotely and 330 sit in engineering. The employers hiring are Leonardo, ICEYE, Airbus Defence and Space and MBDA Deutschland GmbH, plus 4 others. Every listing links straight to their own application page — this board never sits in between.

How many senior roles are there?

409 right now on Defence Careers. The number moves most days: roles are added as employers post them and removed the day they come down.

Which companies are hiring?

Leonardo, ICEYE, Airbus Defence and Space, MBDA Deutschland GmbH and TDW Gesellschaft für verteidigungstechnische Wirksysteme mbH, plus 3 more. Each has a profile here listing everything they currently have open.

Are any of these remote?

63 of the 409 say so explicitly. Where a listing is silent we leave it unmarked rather than guessing, so the real figure is likely a little higher.
