About the role

Role focused on owning hardware integration for complete, flight-ready UAVs by turning released subsystem designs into validated prototypes, coordinating across Mechanical, Electronics, Embedded Software, and Flight Test, with hands-on execution and technical leadership in prototype deployment.

Responsibilities

  • Own the transition from subsystem designs to complete, flight-ready prototypes.
  • Lead prototype integration, hardware bring-up and multidisciplinary debugging.
  • Stay hands-on across disciplines: PCB modifications, interface boards and wiring harnesses; mechanical prototype components and fixtures; hardware debugging, assembly, rework and rapid prototyping; and embedded bring-up and validation where required.
  • Act as the primary Hardware Engineering interface to Flight Test — preparing aircraft for testing, ensuring tests address the right engineering questions, supporting investigation of hardware issues, and driving improvements from results.
  • Build tools and methods that improve hardware development, including board validation firmware, test automation, manufacturing and EOL test solutions, and engineering utilities and instrumentation.
  • Own the technical execution of integrating mechanical, electronics, embedded and systems work into validated, flight-ready hardware, so specialist engineers can stay focused on their own disciplines.

Qualifications

  • Hands-on experience integrating mechanical, electronics and embedded subsystems into working hardware — in aerospace, robotics, automotive or another hardware-intensive field.
  • Comfortable debugging across disciplines (PCB, wiring, mechanical fit, embedded bring-up) rather than a single specialty.
  • Experience preparing hardware for test (bench, flight or field) and turning test results into concrete engineering fixes.
  • Ability to build your own tools and test infrastructure — firmware, automation, fixtures — rather than relying on others.
  • Desire for a deeply hands-on engineering role (not project or people management).
  • Strong cross-discipline communication and ability to work with specialist teams without owning their subsystem designs.

Benefits

  • Real impact & ownership: Shape high-tech defense systems and take responsibility from day one.
  • Mission-driven environment: Work on technologies that matter for European security and sovereignty.
  • Competitive package: Competitive salary, EGYM Wellpass, corporate benefits, and equity options aligned with role and level.
  • Deep tech environment: Hands-on experience with cutting-edge drone technology and real operational use cases.
  • Grow fast: Steep learning curve for juniors, strategic influence and leadership opportunities for seniors.
  • Startup mindset meets defence innovation: Flat hierarchies, fast decisions, and space for your ideas.
  • Flexibility: Flexible hours, remote options, and relocation support.
  • Strong team: International, driven colleagues and a culture built on trust and shared success.
