Compile Qualified Engineering Leads List

The goal is a clean, verifiable contact list of Aerospace, Mechanical, Materials and Project Engineers who can be approached for future collaboration, hiring discussions and broader industry networking. I need you to research, vet and organise the information so I can reach out with confidence that every record is current and relevant.

Scope of work
• Locate engineers active in reputable companies, research centres or innovative startups within the aerospace, defence, automotive, energy or advanced-manufacturing sectors.
• Confirm each person’s core discipline (aerospace, mechanical, materials or project engineering) and capture indications of seniority, certifications, advanced degrees or notable project achievements when publicly available.
• Verify contact channels—corporate email preferred, direct LinkedIn profile required. Phone numbers are a plus but not mandatory.
• Remove duplicates, check for obvious bounces and ensure GDPR-compliant sourcing where applicable.

Deliverable
An Excel or CSV file containing at minimum:
1. Full name
2. Job title & primary engineering discipline
3. Company & industry segment
4. Country / region
5. Verified email address
6. LinkedIn URL
7. Notes on certifications, degrees or flagship projects (if found)

Acceptance criteria
• Every row fully populated with items 1–6.
• Emails pass a quick validation tool with an estimated bounce rate below 5 %.
• No duplicate contacts or companies within the file unless clearly distinct divisions are involved.
• Source links or screenshots kept in a separate tab or folder for audit purposes.

If you already maintain premium access to LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Crunchbase, ZoomInfo or similar data platforms, highlight that so I can gauge expected turnaround. I am ready to review a brief sample before green-lighting the full list.
