• Mission planning and execution
• Telemetry and communication systems
• Build and optimize multi-UAV coordination and swarm logic
• Work on MAVLink-based communication and data pipelines
• Develop ground control station (GCS) features and interfaces
• Integrate sensors (GPS, IMU, cameras, LiDAR, etc.)
• Implement autonomy features (path planning, obstacle avoidance, fail-safes)
• Collaborate with hardware and embedded teams for system integration
• Conduct field testing, debugging, and performance tuning
• Ensure robustness for real-world deployment

Required Skills

• Strong programming skills in C++ and Python
• Experience with UAV stacks like PX4 or ArduPilot
• Understanding of MAVLink protocol
• Familiarity with Linux-based development
• Knowledge of ROS/ROS2
• Experience with simulation tools (Gazebo, SITL, AirSim) and GCS
• Experience with communication sytems (UDP/TCP, serial interface, long range telemetry)
• Experience in multi-UAV systems / swarm coordination
• Exposure to AI/ML for autonomy
• Understanding of control systems

What Were Looking For

• Strong problem-solving mindset
• Ability to work in fast-paced environments
• Interest in real-world deployment
• Ownership of modules from development to field testing
