Move fast, break things, and build them better the next day. You’ll be the go-to person on the shop floor—leading integration, wiring, mechanical assembly, and test prep across a series of high-speed UAS platforms and kinetic systems.

This role isn’t just about turning spanners—it’s about owning the build–test–iterate loop, working side-by-side with engineers, and driving quality and speed in equal measure.

• Lead the hands-on assembly, integration, and maintenance of fixed-wing UAS and experimental airframes.

• Own mechanical fit-up, harness routing, servo setup, propulsion integration, and final prep for flight.

• Guide junior technicians and support team ramp-up for multiple concurrent builds.

• Identify recurring issues, inefficiencies, or failure modes—and help fix them for good.

• Support ground checks, pre-flight inspections, and post-flight maintenance cycles.

• Maintain build logs, configuration notes, and test readiness status with the engineering team.

• Help shape the workshop environment—tooling, workflow, safety, and documentation.

• 5+ years of hands-on experience with UAS assembly, preferably in startup, R&D, or fast-paced prototyping environments.

• Proven ability to support rapid iteration cycles—build, fly, fix, repeat.

• Strong mechanical, electrical, and system-level integration skills.

• Experience with flight control systems, servos, RC systems, and wiring best practices.

• Confident using hand tools, adhesives, fabrication gear, and general workshop equipment.

• Able to read basic mechanical drawings, wiring diagrams, and interpret engineering intent.

• Team player, fast problem-solver, and process improver.

• Bonus: Experience with composite repair, propulsion installation, or autonomous systems.
