Questions

Can a foreigner apply for these roles?

45 of the 53 roles here state no citizenship, export-control or security-clearance demand. A role that does says so in its advert, and the card marks it.

Which aerospace companies hire most?

RTX (21), Telesat (6), Bombardier (4), Planet (3), Kepler (3).

Which roles count as aerospace jobs?

Every propulsion, GNC, avionics, aerodynamics, structures, spacecraft, satcom, launch, flight test and aircraft maintenance role at any employer, and the engineering, science, technician, data and IT roles of the aviation and space companies - aircraft makers and airlines' engineering, launch, satellites, Earth observation, eVTOL. Their sales, finance and office roles are left out, and so is weapons and missile work.

How fresh is this?

Every role is re-checked on the employer's own careers board at least every 48 hours, and the page is rebuilt every night.
