Shape the Future of Sovereign Aerospace
Join a high-performance engineering team where your work directly supports front-line military aviation capability and protects the lives of operational aircrew.
Where Engineering Rhythms Meet Operational Reality
At AMCE, our people are our greatest sovereign capability. We are an Australian-owned, high-calibre team of aeronautical, mechanical, systems, and compliance verification engineers dedicated to solving the most demanding technical challenges in military aviation.
Located in South Windsor, NSW — in the heart of the Hawkesbury aerospace corridor adjacent to RAAF Base Richmond — AMCE offers engineering professionals a dynamic, collaborative environment free from the rigid corporate bureaucracy of multinational conglomerates.
Real Aircraft Impact, Real Flight Hardware
You won't be trapped in endless theoretical slide decks or narrow siloed tasks. At AMCE, engineers work across the complete engineering lifecycle: from initial concept brainstorming and 3D CAD modeling to physical test rig construction, flight-line fit checks on military transport aircraft, and formal airworthiness sign-off.
Direct Access to Chief Engineers
Work side-by-side with recognized industry veterans including CEO & Chief Engineer John Eldridge (CPEng, NER, RPEQ, Fellow Engineers Australia). We provide structured professional development, active mentoring toward Chartered status, and pathways toward becoming an authorised Compliance Verification Engineer (CVE) under DASR 21.
Purpose-Driven Sovereign Defence Mission
Every day, our team works to keep Australian Defence Force personnel safe. Whether designing ballistic protection that stops heavy machine gun rounds or re-engineering door mechanisms to eradicate chronic crew injuries, your engineering decisions make a tangible difference to people's lives.
Collaborative, Flat Engineering Culture
We foster an open, intellectually curious culture where great engineering ideas win regardless of seniority. Our engineering office encourages vigorous technical debate, rapid prototyping, and hands-on problem-solving in our light assembly workshop.
