Job Description, Responsibilities & Requirements
About the Position
Our client is a defense holding scaling into a management structure with specialized verticals in optics, communications, and strike systems (Deep Strike). The company develops and mass-produces a line of UAVs – ranging from reconnaissance drones to long-range solutions that change the situation in the field every day.
We are looking for an engineer to synchronize all modules into a unified system, configure the autopilot, and ensure that every drone coming off the assembly line works perfectly and meets the real-world demands of operators "in the field."
Responsibilities
- Systems Integration: Integrating all onboard components (FC, ESC, GPS, VTX, sensors) into a single, fault-tolerant system. Ensuring stable operation of interfaces (UART, CAN, I2C, SPI).
- ArduPilot Configuration: Customizing and tuning the autopilot for various frame types and mission profiles. Working with MAVLink protocols and GCS (Mission Planner / QGC).
- Power Systems Design: Developing power architecture (PDB, BEC, redundancy) and performing precise power consumption calculations for the system.
- Payload Integration: Connecting and configuring auxiliary equipment (initiation modules, relays, drop systems).
- Testing Cycle: Conducting bench and field (in-situ) trials. Analyzing flight logs to identify and resolve technical bugs.
- Production Synchronization: Creating technical documentation (wiring diagrams, changelogs) to transfer finalized configurations into serial production.
Requirements
- 3-4+ years of experience in UAVs, robotics, or Embedded systems.
- Deep understanding of flight controller tuning and a proven track record of successful onboard systems integration.
- Understanding of the operating principles of electronics, telemetry, and communication systems. Ability to read and analyze complex flight logs.
- Readiness to work in close collaboration with the R&D team and respond promptly to requests from the front line.
We Offer
- Official employment and military reservation from day one (under a Diia City contract).
- Competitive salary aligned with the level of responsibility and task complexity.
- Guidance from leading Tech Leads in a professional environment that values results over processes.
- Rapid idea implementation cycle.
- 24 days of annual leave, sick leave compensation, corporate English classes, and 7 additional days off per year.
