Platform Engineer

Frost Unmanned develops unmanned systems for defence customers. We are looking for a Platform Engineer to take responsibility for integration and reliability of our unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

The role

You own how the UAV platform works as a whole: communication, sensor and electrical systems working together as one complete aircraft. The work is hands-on, split between the workshop, the lab and the field.

You will:

• Design, install and integrate communication, sensor and electrical systems on the aircraft
• Configure radio links, sensors, networks and flight control systems
• Develop embedded software
• Plan and carry out cabling and electrical installation
• Troubleshoot hardware and system-level faults
• Test and validate integrated systems, including flight trials

What we are looking for

• MSc or BSc in electrical engineering or a related field
• Experience with system integration of electronics, communications or sensors, ideally on UAVs
• Embedded software development skills
• Comfortable working hands-on with hardware in the field
• Fluent in English, spoken and written
• Able to pass security vetting, as the role involves defence projects

What we offer

Permanent full-time position in a small team building UAVs for real operational use. Collective-agreement level insurance and occupational pension. Workplace in Stenungsund, with travel for trials and exercises.
