SUMMARY

Once the evaluation board proves the concept, we need someone to shrink it into a custom, nano-drone-sized PCB — tight on weight, space, and power. This role owns the board from schematic to bring-up, including the power and battery-management circuitry, so we don't need a separate power electronics hire this early.

CORE RESPONSIBILITIES

▪ Schematic capture and PCB layout for the custom flight-controller/power board, optimized for size and weight.

▪ Design the Battery Management System (BMS) circuitry: protection, fuel-gauge, charging circuit.

▪ Design power distribution and voltage regulation for all subsystems (sensors, RF, camera, motors).

▪ Basic RF-aware layout practices (trace routing, ground planes, antenna keep-out zones) in coordination with the Flight Control & Systems Engineer's RF/track work.

▪ Manage board bring-up: first-power-on checks, functional test, and debug of the custom board against the eval-board baseline.

▪ Prepare designs for manufacturing (DFM review) ahead of prototyping.

ALSO COVERS — ADJACENT SCOPE





▪ Battery/cell selection and safety-testing basics (over-charge, short-circuit) until a dedicated Battery Engineer is justified.

▪ Enough RF layout competence to avoid the most common interference mistakes, reducing dependence on a full time RF layout specialist early on.

SKILLS REQUIRED

▪ Strong schematic capture and PCB layout experience (Altium, KiCad, or similar), ideally on small-form-factor, weight-constrained products.

▪ Power electronics fundamentals: regulators, battery charging circuits, protection design.

▪ Comfortable with board bring-up and hardware debugging (JTAG/SWD, oscilloscope).

NICE-TO-HAVE

▪ Prior work on drone, wearable, or other tightly weight/space-constrained consumer electronics.

▪ Exposure to RF-aware PCB layout (antenna keep-outs, controlled impedance traces).
