Job Description
Responsibilities and Background
• Experience supporting DoD Programs, particularly in unmanned systems, robotics, or autonomous systems.
• Experience with integration and test events in operational or field environments. Maintain and repair aircraft systems, document workflows, and recommend manufacturing process improvements.
• Knowledge of software autonomy architectures, interoperability frameworks, or distributed systems.
• Familiarity with configuration management processes, engineering change proposals, and technical reviews.
• Interface between Project Management, design, and production team. Create timelines, estimate costs, and coordinate with contractors, suppliers, and internal teams to keep projects on track.
• Prepare technical reports, user manuals, and design specification for all stakeholders.
• Interpret technical data, run feasibility studies, and apply new knowledge to improve existing system and processes.
• Maintain paces with the rapidly evolving UAS commercial sector and identify new commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) and custom components for test consideration.
• Align, fit, and assemble component parts, using precision tools, calibrated hand tools, and power tools. Install electromechanical and electronic parts, using precision tools, calibrated hand tools, and power tools.
Requirements
• United States citizenship.
• Active Top Secret security clearance with the ability to obtain an SCI.
• Bachelor’s degree in an Engineering discipline (e.g., Mechanical, Aerospace, Electrical, Systems) or equivalent practical experience.
• Strong mathematical and scientific foundations with hands-on experience using industry-specific design, simulation, or modeling software.
• Minimum 2 years of experience in unmanned aerial systems or autonomous platforms.
• Familiarity with flight controls, communications, power systems, avionics, or payload integration.
• Possess strong problem-solving skills. Demonstrate analytical abilities to diagnose issues in complex systems and devise effective corrective actions.
• Develop system and subsystem-level requirements and define system and subsystem interface.
• Ability to work within tight timelines with high-quality output.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills to present findings to non-technical stakeholders and collaborate with team members.
• Extreme attention to detail; takes pride in and ownership of work and can manage projects from concept through launch.
Desired Qualifications
• Experience with commonly used open source and commercial software suites for hobbyist UAS, simulation, and engineering (Mission Planner, MATLAB, SolidWorks, Ansys, etc.)
• Hands on aircraft or robotics experience such as FPV or RC aircraft, private pilot, experimental aircraft building, or flight test support.
• Experience supporting DoD Programs, particularly in unmanned systems, robotics, or autonomous systems.
• Experience with integration and test events in operational or field environments. Maintain and repair aircraft systems, document workflows, and recommend manufacturing process improvements.
