As an Electrical Engineer, your main role will be to design and develop electronic hardware for our C-UAV platforms and own the overall electrical system architecture.
You will be in a team, responsible for all electrical subsystems required to operate the drone in real-world deployments, including power distribution and charging infrastructure (power management, battery interfaces, protection and safety circuits), as well as communication and connectivity interfaces (data links, RF modules, antennas, wiring, and integration of external connection ports).
TasksRESPONSIBILITYDesign and electrical components like voltage regulators, and power distribution for drones.
Create and test electronic circuits and PCBs for flight controllers, sensors, and embedded systems.
Develop and code software packages for embedded system and interfacesIntegrate and calibrate sensors such as IMUs, GPS, cameras, LiDar, magnometers.
Implement communication systems for reliable telemetry and communication.
Conduct testing and validation of hardware under real-world conditions and environmental stress.
Document designs and coordinate with teams for smooth integration with mechanical and software systems.
RequirementsREQUIREMENTSProficiency in schematic capture and PCB design (e.g. Altium, KiCad, Eagle)Proficiency in rapid prototyping and iterative testingFamiliarity with embedded systems and interfaces (MCUs, SPI, I2C, UART, CAN)Solid programming skills in python and/or C++Ability to work autonomously and solve complex technical challenges.
