Top Engineering Jobs

Hands-on role integrating and flight-testing Hivemind autonomy across Group 1-3 aircraft. Responsibilities include bench and flight bring-up, debugging autonomy/flight controllers/radios, building test tools and automation in Python/C++, developing hardware interfaces, running SIL/HIL/VIL and live flight tests, analyzing data, and improving test infrastructure in collaboration with software, hardware, and flight teams.

Design, integrate, and troubleshoot V-BAT aircraft and support equipment electrical and power systems. Responsibilities include circuit and subsystem design (analog, digital, power management, microcontrollers, servos, sensors, radios), component selection, schematic capture, simulation, verification, avionics debugging/root-cause analysis, and cross-functional integration with firmware, mechanical, software, manufacturing, and supply chain teams.

Integrate and deploy autonomy software onto unmanned aircraft, prepare flight-ready systems, support on-site flight tests, debug hardware/software, capture and analyze flight data, collaborate with autonomy/GNC/test teams, and support certification and continuous improvement for reliable autonomous operations.

Lead fuel system architecture, integration, testing, and operational support for a jet-powered UAV. Manage engineers and technicians working on tanks, pumps, valves, venting, pressurization, and sensors. Drive fluid/thermal trade studies, coordinate testing and instrumentation, support failure investigations, and align suppliers and schedules with program goals across propulsion, airframe, and manufacturing teams.

Lead architecture, design, and development of precision wire harnesses and cable assemblies for autonomous UAVs. Own 3D CAD routing, analysis, prototypes, and testing. Perform electrical and environmental reliability analysis, integrate with avionics/systems/manufacturing, and mentor engineers to establish harness design best practices.

Lead design, development, simulation, testing, and integration of fluid and thermal systems for autonomous aircraft and ground platforms. Drive first-principles modeling, prototype validation, supplier selection, and mentor junior engineers while ensuring system-level thermal performance from concept through production.

Design and develop structural and mechanism systems for autonomous UAV launch/recovery. Create CAD models, perform structural and kinematic calculations and preliminary FEA, prototype and test mechanisms, support pre-production and flight testing, collaborate with cross-functional teams, participate in design reviews, and improve design processes and configuration management.

Integrate and deploy autonomy software onto unmanned aircraft, prepare flight-ready systems, support on-site flight tests, debug hardware/software issues, collect and analyze flight data, collaborate across autonomy, GNC, and test teams, and support certification, compliance, and process improvements.

Lead and manage a perception engineering team developing production-quality C++ perception and state-estimation software (A-PNT) for GNSS-degraded environments. Integrate and test sensor fusion, computer vision, and estimator frameworks on aerial platforms, validate with simulation and real data, and collaborate with hardware, test, and cross-functional teams.

Lead simulation-driven testing and automation for autonomy software. Build and maintain simulation-based test frameworks and test harnesses (SIL/HIL/VIL), develop Python tooling for test automation and data analysis, execute regression/integration tests, diagnose issues with developers, integrate tests into CI/CD, and maintain test documentation and metrics for mission-critical autonomous aircraft systems.
