About the role
A. Design & Development1. Design UAV frames, propulsion systems, payload integration mechanisms, and power systems.2. Develop and optimise flight control algorithms (PID tuning, navigation, autonomous flight).3. Integrate avionics, autopilot systems (e.g., Pixhawk/Cube, Ardupilot, PX4), GNSS, telemetry, and sensors.
B. Prototyping & Testing1. Build, assemble, and calibrate drone prototypes.2. Conduct ground tests, flight trials, and endurance/performance validation.3. Debug hardware/software integration issues and propose improvements.
C. Systems Integration1. Work on payload integration: EO/IR cameras, LiDAR, SAR, weaponisation (for defence), or delivery mechanisms.2. Develop communication links (RF, 4G/5G, Satcom) and ensure secure data transmission.3. Collaborate with AI/ML team for autonomy, object detection, and anti-drone systems.
D. Production Support1. Translate R&D prototypes into scalable production-ready designs.2. Document designs, test results, and compliance reports.3. Work closely with procurement, fabrication, and quality control teams.
