Department- Engineering / R&D;
Employment Type - Full time
Experience- 3–6 years, including hands-on UAV integration
Location- Manesar, Haryana
Role Summary
We are looking for a UAV Systems Engineer cum System Integrator to take prototypes from system requirements through assembly, integration, and flight validation. The role combines engineering judgment with hands-on work in the lab and at flight-test sites. You will define how the airframe, propulsion, avionics, communications, ground control station, and payloads work together, then verify the performance of the complete aircraft.
Key Responsibilities
- Assemble and integrate flight controllers, GNSS receivers, power distribution, propulsion systems, telemetry radios, and camera or mapping payloads. Prepare wiring diagrams, pinouts, and harness documentation.
- Configure and calibrate ArduPilot or PX4 systems using Mission Planner or QGroundControl. Verify sensor readings, control directions, ground station communication, and failsafe behavior.
- Plan and execute bench checks, ground tests, and flight trials with the test pilot. Analyse flight logs and bench measurements to diagnose electrical, mechanical, communication, and firmware issues. Verify corrective actions before closing defects.
- Maintain bills of materials, configuration records, test reports, and assembly instructions so other team members can reproduce a validated build.
- Coordinate with mechanical, electronics, firmware, procurement, and quality teams during prototype development and handover to production.
Required Qualifications and Skills
- B.E. or B.Tech. in Aerospace, Electronics, Electrical, Mechatronics, Mechanical Engineering, or a related discipline.
- Hands-on experience taking at least one UAV prototype through assembly, integration, and flight testing.
- Working knowledge of ArduPilot or PX4, autopilot configuration, ground control software, and flight-log analysis.
- Ability to read schematics, interpret pinouts, build or inspect wiring harnesses, and troubleshoot using a multimeter and oscilloscope.
- Familiarity with MAVLink and common hardware interfaces such as UART, CAN, I²C, and PWM.
- Ability to document build configurations, test results, and fault investigations clearly.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with more than one UAV platform type or with camera, LiDAR, or RTK/PPK payload integration.
- Familiarity with vibration isolation, EMI/EMC troubleshooting, or hardware-in-the-loop testing.
- Sensor Calibration
- PID tuning
- DGCA Remote Pilot Certificate or experience supporting structured flight-test campaigns.
