مهندس تكامل واختبار أنظمة الطائرات بدون طيار (UAV Systems Integration & Test Engineer)

Job Summary

This role involves supporting the integration of UAV platforms from concept or prototype to flight-ready systems, focusing on hands-on system-level integration and testing.

Responsibilities

• Integrate UAV subsystems including airframe, avionics, propulsion, power, payload, communications, ground control, and autopilot.
• Define and document mechanical, electrical, signal, communication, and software subsystem interfaces.
• Support mechanical packaging and component placement using CAD/SolidWorks.
• Configure UAV autopilot systems such as PX4, ArduPilot, or MAVLink.
• Prepare and conduct integration, bench, ground, and flight readiness tests.
• Support design for EMC/EMI resilience including grounding, shielding, cable routing, and antenna placement.
• Assist with environmental and EMC testing under various operating conditions.
• Troubleshoot integration issues related to electrical noise, telemetry, GPS interference, sensor instability, power, communication, and mechanical fitment.

Must haves

• Practical experience in UAV, robotics, aerospace, mechatronics, or embedded systems integration.
• Strong knowledge of mechanical, electrical, avionics, and software interfaces in complex systems.
• Experience with UAV autopilot systems like PX4, ArduPilot, MAVLink, Pixhawk, or Cube.
• Ability to interpret wiring diagrams, interface documents, mechanical layouts, and CAD models.
• Experience supporting bench, ground, flight readiness, or field testing.
• Hands-on troubleshooting skills across mechanical, electrical, avionics, communication, and configuration issues.

Nice to haves

• Experience integrating fixed-wing, VTOL, multirotor, or hybrid UAV platforms.
• Knowledge of EMC/EMI mitigation, grounding, shielding, and electrical noise troubleshooting.
• Experience with environmental testing such as vibration, temperature, humidity, dust, or field conditions.
• Familiarity with propulsion systems, ESCs, batteries, power distribution, telemetry radios, GNSS, IMU, payloads, onboard computers, Jetson, embedded Linux, companion computers, or onboard mission systems.
