Job Title

Senior Engineer –  VTOL and UAV Systems We are an aerospace startup building advanced autonomous aerial platforms from the ground up. We're developing new types of flight systems with a focus on performance, reliability, and innovation — and we’re looking for strong engineers to help bring them to life. What You’ll Build As a Senior Engineer , you’ll help design and develop next-generation aerial systems. You’ll work on everything from airframe design to propulsion, electronics, flight control, and full-system integration — turning ideas into working prototypes. This is a hands-on role where you’ll work across mechanical, electrical, and software systems as part of a small and focused team Key Responsibilities Design and build core systems for new aerial platforms Develop and tune control surfaces, propulsion, and embedded systems Integrate sensors, power systems, and flight controllers Support testing, debugging, and performance improvements Solve complex technical problems in hardware and software Core Technical Expertise Flight Systems & Control Strong understanding of flight dynamics, stability, and control Experience with flight control systems and tuning control algorithms Knowledge of sensor fusion, navigation, and guidance systems Familiar with different aircraft configurations and control surface strategies Propulsion & Power Systems Experience with integrating propulsion systems (gas turbine, electric, or hybrid) Understanding of engine control units (FADEC/ECU) and fuel systems Familiar with power distribution and electrical systems for aerial vehicles Advanced Manufacturing & Materials Hands-on experience with 3D printing and rapid prototyping for aerospace Familiarity with composite structures, carbon fiber, and lightweight materials Knowledge of manufacturing standards and iterative hardware development Aerodynamics & Airframe Design Solid grasp of aerodynamic principles, airflow behavior, and CFD tools Experience in wing and airframe design, airfoil selection, and optimization Understanding of boundary layer effects, flow separation, and vortex dynamics Familiarity with wind tunnel and flight testing for validation Comfortable with both high-speed and low-speed aerodynamic regimes Aware of environmental factors like ground effect and weather impacts Electronics & Embedded Systems Experience with avionics, embedded software, and real-time systems Knowledge of integrating sensors (GPS, IMU, cameras, RF modules) Familiarity with onboard communication systems and data links Bonus: experience in autonomous logic or computer vision applications Systems Integration Experience with system-level design and full platform integration Familiar with certification, safety processes, and reliability standards Exposure to alternative navigation methods and adaptive control systems Preferred Background B.Tech/M.Tech in Aerospace, Mechanical, Avionics, or related fields 5–10 years of experience in aerospace, UAVs, or robotics Hands-on experience building flight-ready hardware Excited to work on fast-paced, high-impact engineering projects Why Join Us Work on cutting-edge flight systems from day one Build things that fly — and own what you build Be part of a core team shaping a high-tech product How to Apply Your resume (with technical projects) Any project portfolio if you have one
