Company Overview
We are a rapidly growing technology startup focused on delivering next-generation drones for security and safety applications. Our company vertically integrates hardware and software to create leading edge capabilities in the UAV space, with a focus on saving lives.

We are seeking a Electrical Engineer to design, develop, and deploy hardware that powers intelligent robotic UAS systems operating in real-world environments. In this role, you will work at the intersection of software, hardware, and autonomy—building robust, high-performance systems that integrate perception, planning, control, and communication.

You will collaborate closely with mechanical, software, and firmware engineers to take robotics hardware from simulation to fielded deployment.

Responsibilities

  • Design embedded control electronics from concept to production, including hardware selection, schematic & PCB design, board bring-up, and system level integration.

  • Troubleshoot issues that span the electrical and software boundaries, with solid skills using both lab equipment (Oscilloscopes, DMM, etc.) and software debugging tools.

  • Work closely with other electrical, mechanical, software, firmware, and test engineers to deliver fully functional products.

  • Work in a fast-paced environment supporting new developments, active deployments, and customer operated hardware.

  • Concurrently manage involvement in multiple projects at various stages.

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, or a related field

  • Strong work ethic and ability to function with limited guidance

  • Ability to work effectively in a multidisciplinary engineering team

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with autonomous systems (UAVs, UGVs, mobile robots, or manipulators)

  • Experience with Altium designer

  • Experience with field testing, data logging, and performance analysis
