UAV Electronics System Engineer

Role OverviewThe UAV Electronic Systems Engineer will lead the design and integration of electronic control systems for UAVs. This is a hands-on, multidisciplinary role involving control systems architecture, embedded software development, and electromechanical integration. You will collaborate closely with aircraft and engine development teams to bring cutting-edge UAV technology demonstrators to life.Key Responsibilities Design and develop the electronic control system architecture for of UAV propulsion and flight control systems Integrate and configure flight controllers and engine control units with onboard avionics, sensors, and communication modules Develop and implement embedded software/firmware for control, safety, and telemetry functions Apply systems engineering principles to ensure seamless integration of electronics, software, and mechanical components Support testing, debugging, and validation of integrated electromechanical UAV systems Collaborate with internal teams and external partners to meet system-level performance and reliability goals Document system design, software and hardware interfaces, and integration processes Qualifications Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science/ Engineering, or a related field Notable experience with electronic system design and embedded control systems for UAVs or robotic platforms Proficiency in embedded software development, scripting, real-time operating systems, and software/hardware integration Familiarity with electromechanical systems, sensors, communication protocols (CAN, UART, SPI, MAVLink, I2C), and PCB design Experience with computer modeling and simulation of electro-mechanical systems (validate prior to build). Experience working with UAV flight controllers, autopilot systems (e.g., PX4, ArduPilot) History of hands-on work in a fast-paced, collaborative R&D environment Self-driven, disciplined, committed to quality and meeting deadlines
