Top Engineering Jobs

Design and implement high-quality embedded C/C++ software for X-BAT UAV avionics, integrate across firmware, autonomy, and GCS; participate in architecture and code reviews; build test systems including virtualized and HIL simulations; develop CI tooling, prototypes, and technical documentation; collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams and report to leadership.

Design, analyze, and deliver liquid cooling and thermal management systems for a jet-engine VTOL UAV (X-BAT). Own component/system design, supplier engagement, analysis/sizing, and support ground and flight test activities, including test-site travel.

Lead propulsion engineering for X-BAT's fighter-class afterburning engine and TVC systems. Manage engineers and technicians through concept, integration, testing, flight operations, and deployment. Coordinate with controls, airframe, flight test, manufacturing, suppliers, and leadership; drive trade studies, root-cause investigations, performance analysis, design reviews, and flight readiness. Emphasize technical leadership, hands-on execution, and schedule alignment to meet vehicle and mission requirements.

Design, build, and execute vibration, modal, structural, and environmental test programs. Develop instrumented measurement systems, perform shaker and MIL-STD testing, collect and analyze data, validate FEA models, troubleshoot structural issues, maintain calibrated test equipment, and produce test plans and technical reports to inform mechanical design decisions.

Lead design and development of aerostructures from concept through production, ensuring structural integrity, manufacturability, and system integration. Manage cross-functional teams, apply composite and metallic structural knowledge, oversee release processes, and support testing and production readiness for autonomous aircraft.

Lead and grow the Hivemind Development Platform team to own SDK package management, Nix-based build infrastructure, developer tooling, CLI/SDK experience, and service-backed components. Drive roadmap, cross-team collaboration, operational readiness, reliability, observability, and developer productivity for multi-language SDKs across internal and external users.

Lead propulsion test development and execution for an afterburning jet-powered vehicle. Oversee design, build, and operation of test stands, instrumentation, and safety systems. Manage propulsion test engineers and technicians, define test objectives, perform thermodynamic and transient analysis, drive root-cause investigations, coordinate schedules and suppliers, and ensure test alignment with vehicle milestones.

Develop, integrate, test, and deploy autonomy software on unmanned aircraft. Build production-quality C++/Python components, perform lab and live flight testing (SIL/HIL/VIL), troubleshoot hardware/software/radio/network issues, support field demonstrations and operational deployments, and produce integration/test documentation and telemetry analysis.

Lead RF design, integration, testing, and compliance for the V-BAT aircraft. Define system and unit RF requirements, optimize link performance, resolve interference, improve test and compliance processes, create test procedures, mentor engineers, support hiring, and coordinate cross-functionally to deliver reliable airborne RF systems.

Design, analyze, and integrate fuel storage, transfer, and venting systems for long-endurance UAVs. Perform CFD and thermal/fluid analysis, support integration with propulsion and avionics, conduct simulations and bench testing, generate design documentation and verification plans, coordinate suppliers, troubleshoot prototypes, and mature system architecture and standards for flight test readiness.
