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.
