About us:
Daedalean AG is the artificial intelligence (AI) and autonomy hub of Destinus Group, a rapidly growing European defense and aerospace company developing the next generation of autonomous drones, effectors, and flight systems. Based in Zurich, the 100+ team develops safety-critical AI for aviation at the intersection of world-class research and real hardware. Its expertise spans computer vision, deep learning, and onboard reasoning – systems that can perceive the world, understand it, and make decisions in real time.
Your role:
To contribute to all things hardware, coming up with new stuff, only bound by the laws of Nature (and budget).
What you will do:
- Design and development of digital and analog Circuits, PCBs and FPGAs including power, sensor, and RF design.
- Circuit analysis, and real-world verification - on the lab bench and in the air.
- Hands-on involvement in all stages of prototype and product development, from design and validation to implementation and testing.
- Design and implementation of inter- and intrasystem communications solutions (i.e., integrating systems via CAN, UART, USB, I2C, SPI, SSI, RS-232, RS-485, ARINC-429, MIL-STD-1553, etc.).
- Familiarity with DFMEA, Root Cause Analysis (RCA), and Six Sigma
Preferred Qualifications and Experience:
- MS or PhD degree in Electrical Engineering (EE), Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE), or related technical field or equivalent experience.
- A background in engineering with a strong academic record and a demonstrated ability to convert theory into practice.
- More than 7 years of experience in an industry environment, preferably from a highly regulated sector such as automotive, medical devices or aerospace.
- Proven track record of bringing products from conception through to mass production.
- Avionics or drone experience is a plus, but certainly not required.
Benefits:
- A team of experienced engineers and researchers, who joined us from most recognized companies and institutions.
- Difficult and interesting problems to solve.
- Hybrid work setting.
- Gym membership.
