UAS Avionics Engineer
Sick of working on future tech that never leaves the lab?
You know the drill endless prototypes, PowerPoints, and promises but no aircraft actually flying. If you want to build systems that end up in the sky rather than in a drawer, keep reading.
Heres whats different:
Theyre actually putting unmanned aircraft into the real world. Proper platforms. Proper flight testing. Proper engineering ownership. No corporate barriers, no design-by-committee, no waiting 18 months for approval to change a connector.
The reality:
Youll take charge of the avionics that make next-generation aircraft work. Control systems, navigation, comms links, power distribution the lot. Youll shape architectures, define requirements, and build hardware/software interfaces that survive real flight campaigns, not just simulation.
Expect hands-on integration, hardware-in-the-loop testing, instrumentation setup, telemetry configuration, and supporting test flights on site. Youll be deep in the engineering not observing it from a conference room.
Youll also work directly with suppliers on hardware selection and qualification, design electrical systems and ground control hardware, and help shape the onboard and offboard tools that keep each aircraft safe in the air.
What you get:
1. Competitive salary
2. Flexible working options
3. Pension scheme
