Defense and aerospace software engineering with multiphysics simulation
HI Iberia is a 150-person Spanish software and engineering firm founded in 1989, now heavily focused on defense and aerospace projects. The tech stack—MATLAB, Simulink, COMSOL Multiphysics, and embedded Linux—paired with active projects in acoustic systems, GNC (guidance, navigation, control), and DO-178 compliance work, reveals a shift toward high-complexity defense contracting rather than telecom services. Current hiring is concentrated in mid-to-senior engineering roles, signaling project staffing pressure on specialized technical work.
HI Iberia develops software and TIC solutions for defense, aerospace, and telecommunications sectors across Spain and Europe. The company employs 150 professionals and has worked with tier-one contractors including Indra, Telefonica, IBM, Accenture, and others. Revenue rounds 8 million euros annually, with 10% reinvested in R&D. The company has delivered over 25 EU-sponsored projects and now operates as a specialist in embedded systems, multiphysics simulation, and compliance-heavy defense programs where accuracy and certification standards (DO-178) are non-negotiable.
MATLAB, Simulink, COMSOL Multiphysics for simulation; React and TypeScript for frontend; Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Ansible, JBoss, and WebLogic for infrastructure; AIX systems also in use.
