Job description

Are you a drone engineer who codes, builds, flies, and leads? We’re looking for a Robotics Lead to head up the design and deployment of autonomous drone systems for real‑world missions.

We want someone who’s hands‑on with ArduPilot, has built UAVs from the ground up, and thrives in field testing just as much as in firmware development.

What You’ll Do

• Architect drone systems from flight controller to payloads, telemetry, and companion compute.
• Customize and tune ArduPilot firmware for performance, autonomy, and reliability.
• Lead a small team of engineers and oversee projects from client briefing to final flight test.
• Engage directly with clients to design technical solutions and quote projects.
• Own system integration, testing, documentation, and post‑deployment support.

What You Bring

• 5+ years in drone development (hardware + firmware).
• Deep experience with ArduPilot, MAVLink, Mission Planner, tuning, and debugging.
• Strong in C/C++, Python, and systems integration.
• Ability to lead technically, troubleshoot across hardware and software, and manage execution.
• Bonus if you’ve worked with PX4, ROS, UAVCAN, or have led full‑stack UAV projects.

Why Join Avetics?

• Work at the intersection of autonomy, robotics, and aerospace.
• Build mission‑critical drone systems that get deployed in the real world.
• Small team, real impact, no red tape.
• You’ll get to lead, build, fly, and own.
