Tech recruitment agency for Aerospace.
In aeronautics and space, tomorrow's aircraft and satellites are software-driven systems. Bluecoders recruits the profiles who bridge physical engineering and embedded software, from NewSpace to low-carbon aviation.
Your specific challenges
- Moving from prototype to rate production
- Embedding AI and signal processing into certified systems
- Developing software-controlled electric, hybrid or hydrogen propulsion
- Designing smarter, more connected flight management systems
- Building the first engineering team of a NewSpace startup
Risk: a programme that slips because the right people aren't there at the right time.
What you're going through today
- Traditional aerospace agencies hire mechanical profiles, far less software
- Hybrid hardware / software profiles are rare and already employed
- Dual civil / military programmes add security clearance constraints
- Primes and startups compete for the same talent pools
Result: key roles left open for months.

Your questions about tech recruitment in Aerospace
How long does it take to hire a tech profile in aeronautics or space?
It mostly depends on how rare the profile is and, on defence programmes, on security clearances. We give you a realistic estimate at the brief, role by role, and keep it updated during the search.
Which profiles do you recruit in aeronautics and space?
Avionics, embedded systems and software, real-time systems, propulsion, aerostructures, signal processing and optronics engineers, as well as AI profiles applied to satellite and flight data.
Do you recruit for primes as well as NewSpace startups?
Yes. Both look for the same hybrid profiles, between physical engineering and software. We adapt the approach to the context: building a startup's first engineering team, or expert and clearance-ready profiles for a prime's programme.
What engagement model do you offer?
Success-based recruitment, billed only on hire, with no fee if we don't deliver. For volume or ongoing needs, we also offer RPO.
