What startups in aerospace and defense build
Startups here build satellites, engines, aircraft and defence systems, with hardware and software in the same building. Work runs on programme deadlines and hardware tests, so the calendar is less flexible than in pure software. Roles skew technical, and government customers mean paperwork and clearance requirements are part of the hiring.
