About the role
About the Role
Join an engineering and R&D team developing autonomous drone delivery systems. You will design, integrate, and test robotic systems from early prototypes through field validation, helping enable safe and reliable operations.
What You'll Do
Design and integrate robotic mechanisms, sensors, actuators, controllers, and drone payload systems.
Develop control, navigation, path-planning, and obstacle-avoidance solutions.
Build robotics software with ROS or ROS 2 and C++ or Python, and validate systems in simulation.
Integrate flight controllers, companion computers, communication links, and telemetry with drone systems.
Build, troubleshoot, and independently validate robotic systems in the field.
Work with mechanical, electronics, and software teams on prototype development and deployment.
What We're Looking For
At least 2 years of hands-on experience building or delivering robotics, UAV, or autonomous systems.
Strong foundations in robotics kinematics, dynamics, control theory, PID, and system integration.
Proficiency with C++ or Python, ROS or ROS 2, and Linux; MATLAB familiarity is useful.
Experience with PX4 or ArduPilot, MAVLink, motors, ESCs, batteries, and flight controllers.
Hands-on experience integrating sensors such as IMUs, GPS or RTK, and LiDAR, including sensor fusion or GPS-denied navigation.
Embedded systems experience with microcontrollers, Raspberry Pi, or Jetson, plus actuators and hardware debugging.
Familiarity with CAN, UART, I2C, drone telemetry, simulation, flight-log analysis, and field testing.
A degree in robotics, mechatronics, electrical engineering, aerospace, computer science, or a related field.
Experience with computer vision, machine learning, SLAM, Gazebo or Webots, CAD, BVLOS operations, or UTM concepts is a plus.
