We are seeking a highly experienced engineering professional to take full technical ownership of a complex airborne platform, leading its development from early design stages through full system maturity.
This role serves as the senior technical authority for a multi-disciplinary UAV system, integrating hardware, software, aerodynamics, propulsion, communications, and navigation into a cohesive and high-performance platform.
Role Overview:
The position is responsible for end-to-end system definition, architecture, integration, and performance of a complex airborne system. It combines deep system engineering expertise with hands-on technical leadership across multiple engineering domains. You will act as a key technical focal point within the program, driving engineering decisions, system design direction, and cross-disciplinary alignment.
Key Responsibilities:
Full technical ownership of a complex UAV / airborne platform
system architecture definition and cross-domain integration (mechanical, electrical, software, propulsion, communications, navigation).
Leading system -level requirements engineering and decomposition into subsystem requirements.
Driving technical decision-making, trade-off analysis, and long-term system design strategy.
Ensuring system performance, reliability, scalability, and maintainability across the lifecycle.
Coordinating engineering activities across multiple disciplines and development teams.
Leading design reviews and ensuring technical alignment across stakeholders.
Partnering with program and engineering leadership on roadmap definition and future capabilities.
Supporting development of new platforms from concept through implementation.
Requirements: Requirements:
B.Sc. in Engineering or related technical field (Aeronautics - advantage).
Significant experience in UAV systems or complex airborne platforms - must.
Proven experience in system -level development of multi-disciplinary platforms from early design stages.
Strong understanding of hardware/software/mechanical system interactions.
Experience with system architecture, requirements engineering, and design trade-offs.
Ability to work in complex, cross-functional engineering environments.
