Skills you'll use

What you'll do

• Avionics System Architecture: Define and evolve the complete avionics architecture for our dual-motor thrust-vectored tailsitter
• Power Electronics Design: Design robust power management and distribution systems including DC-DC converters, battery management, motor controllers, and protection circuits
• RF & Communication Systems: Develop RF subsystems for telemetry, command & control, and positioning. Ensure reliable long-range communication in complex RF environments while maintaining compliance with regulatory standards
• EMI/EMC Compliant PCB Design: Create production-ready PCBs with rigorous EMI/EMC design practices including proper grounding, shielding, trace routing, and component placement
• Manufacturing & Vendor Management: Lead hardware productization from prototype to high-volume manufacturing
• Cross-Functional Leadership: Collaborate closely with firmware, flight controls, and mechanical teams to ensure seamless hardware-software integration. Drive technical decisions across teams, mentor junior engineers, and establish hardware development processes and best practices

Who can apply

• 5+ years in hardware/avionics engineering with a proven track record in complex embedded systems, preferably in aerospace, robotics, automotive, or high-reliability applications. Demonstrated experience scaling custom hardware from prototype to volume production (1000+ units)
• PCB Design & Development: Expert-level proficiency in schematic capture and PCB layout using tools like Altium Designer, KiCAD, or Cadence Allegro. Strong understanding of high-speed digital design, mixed-signal layouts, multi-layer stackup design, and design for manufacturing (DFM) principles
• Power Electronics Expertise:
• Hands-on experience designing switch-mode power supplies, linear regulators, battery management systems, and motor control circuits
• Understanding of magnetics design, thermal management, and efficiency optimization
• Proficiency with power simulation tools (LTspice, PLECS, or similar)
• Embedded Systems & Integration:
• Experience interfacing with microcontrollers and embedded Linux systems via I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, USB, and Ethernet
• Knowledge of sensor integration (IMUs, GPS, barometers, cameras) and actuation systems
• Familiarity with embedded firmware development for hardware bring-up and validation
