Description

• In developing a test asset, you will gain a deep understanding of the system you are working on. This could be the full avionics stack and the embedded code that lives in them, including flight computers, power distribution boards, battery management systems, and motor controllers. The test of these systems will likely involve the design and build of mechatronics systems and along with the development of complex scripts that automate many sensors and actuators with operator safety in mind. In all cases, you will have full ownership of the results of your work from early system prototypes to the data analysis and recommendations that come from it. If this sounds like something you'd be excited to tackle, read on.
