Robotics Engineer

<p>Our client, LiquidPiston, is redefining propulsion through their next-generation rotary engines—compact, efficient and powerful enough to reshape how energy is used in aerospace, defense and mobility. As they expand into UAV (Unmanned Aeriel Vehicle) applications, we are building a dynamic team to drive the development of integrated propulsion and control systems for next generation of drones.</p><p><strong>Role Overview</strong></p><p>The UAV Electronic Systems Engineer will lead the design and integration of electronic control systems for UAVs. This is a hands-on, multidisciplinary role involving control systems architecture, embedded software development and electromechanical integration. You will collaborate closely with aircraft and engine development teams to bring cutting-edge UAV technology demonstrators to life.</p><p><strong>Key Responsibilities</strong></p><ul><li>Design and develop the electronic control system architecture for of UAV propulsion and flight control systems</li><li>Integrate and configure flight controllers and engine control units with onboard avionics, sensors, and communication modules</li><li>Develop and implement embedded software/firmware for control, safety, and telemetry functions</li><li>Apply systems engineering principles to ensure seamless integration of electronics, software, and mechanical components</li><li>Support testing, debugging, and validation of integrated electromechanical UAV systems</li><li>Collaborate with internal teams and external partners to meet system-level performance and reliability goals</li><li>Document system design, software and hardware interfaces, and integration processes</li></ul><p><strong>Qualifications</strong></p><ul><li>Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science/ Engineering, or a related field</li><li>Notable experience with electronic system design and embedded control systems for UAVs or robotic platforms</li><li>Proficiency in embedded software development, scripting, real-time operating systems, and software/hardware integration</li><li>Familiarity with electromechanical systems, sensors, communication protocols (CAN, UART, SPI, MAVLink, I2C), and PCB design</li><li>Experience with computer modeling and simulation of electro-mechanical systems (validate prior to build).</li><li>Experience working with UAV flight controllers, autopilot systems (e.g., PX4, ArduPilot)</li><li>History of hands-on work in a fast-paced, collaborative R&D environment</li><li>Self-driven, disciplined, committed to quality and meeting deadlines</li></ul><p><br></p><p>If interested apply here or LiquidPiston Apply Here</p>
