About InvictronInvictron Systems develops autonomous defense technologies that operate reliably in GNSS-denied, GPS-contested, and electronically hostile environments. The company builds end-to-end autonomous warfare solutions, including intelligent ground control systems, UAV software, and real-time object detection, tracking, and aiming to enhance situational awareness and decision-making.Founded and led by IIT alumni and mentors, Invictron focuses on creating sovereign battlefield autonomy for India, reducing reliance on imported drone and UAV systems. While its primary focus is defense and aerospace, Invictron also aims to adapt these technologies for commercial applications, driving broader real-world impact.We're a small team. Everyone here works close to the hardware and the mission.The RoleWe're looking for an experienced FPV and Fixed-Wing Drone Pilot to join our flight operations team and help test, validate, and deploy next-generation autonomous UAV systems.This isn't a commercial drone operator role. You'll fly experimental aircraft, support autonomous flight testing, validate recent capabilities, and work alongside AI, robotics, and embedded engineers to bridge the gap between software and real-world performance.Every sortie generates critical data that helps improve our navigation, perception, and mission systems for demanding operational environments.Day to day, you'll:Operate FPV and fixed-wing UAVs during flight testing and validation missionsExecute manual, assisted,



and autonomous flight operationsPlan missions and conduct thorough pre-flight and post-flight inspectionsCapture flight logs, telemetry, video, and test observations for engineering analysisAssist with tuning, calibration, payload integration, and system validationTroubleshoot flight, communication, and hardware issues during field trialsWork closely with AI, robotics, and embedded teams to validate autonomous featuresSupport demonstrations, customer trials, and field deployments as requiredMaintain strict flight safety standards and operational documentationYou'll play a key role in turning prototypes into reliable field-ready autonomous systems.RequirementsYou'll thrive here if you:Have hands-on experience flying FPV and fixed-wing UAVsAre proficient with mission planning software such as QGroundControl or Mission PlannerUnderstand flight controllers, telemetry systems, radio links, batteries, propulsion systems, and payload integrationHave experience with PX4 or ArduPilot-based platformsCan confidently troubleshoot issues in the field under time constraintsAre comfortable working outdoors and traveling for flight trialsHave strong documentation and communication skillsHold a Bachelor's degree, Diploma, or equivalent practical experience in Engineering, Aviation, Robotics, Electronics, or a related fieldBonus: Experience with VTOL platforms, BVLOS operations, DGCA Remote Pilot Certificate, NVIDIA Jetson-based UAVs, MAVLink, RTK GPS, long-range telemetry systems, or defense UAV programs.#FPV #FixedWing #DronePilot #UAV #DroneJobs #DefenseTech #AutonomousSystems #PX4 #ArduPilot #FlightTesting #Hiring #Invictron
