- Firmware & Integration: Flash and configure all UAV subsystems (flight controller, ESCs, radios, companion computer) and verify bus communications (Serial, CAN/DroneCAN, I2C).
- Commissioning & Testing: Perform full sensor calibrations, flight-mode setup, ESC/motor tests, safety failsafes, and pre-flight checkouts.
- Troubleshooting: Diagnose integration issues using Linux CLI and system logs; isolate faults between software, parameters, or hardware/wiring.
- Production Tracking: Track unit status through the assembly pipeline and escalate technical blockers early.
Qualifications
- PX4 & QGroundControl: Hands-on experience with PX4 (or ArduPilot), parameter tuning, firmware flashing, and sensor calibration.
- Linux (Ubuntu): Daily comfort using command-line tools, configuration files, and system logs.
- UAV Hardware & Protocols: Working knowledge of flight controllers, ESCs, GPS, telemetry, and communication buses (CAN/DroneCAN, Serial, I2C).
- Electronics & Safety: Basic soldering/crimping skills, multimeter usage, and strict adherence to LiPo/power safety.
Nice to have
- Experience with automated test frameworks, scripting, or tooling for UAV commissioning and validation.
