Robotics Engineer

Aviant does home delivery with drones. We fly at 100 km/h to people's gardens and deliver food and medicine. After starting in the labs at MIT in 2020, we have performed over 8,000 flights, covered tens of thousands of kilometers, completed more than 30 contracts and managed to take a leading position in the European drone market. We just launched Europes largest base for autonomous last-mile delivery with drones at Ski. This will be a major event in European transportation, and we are now looking for a lead technician to be responsible for our workshop, maintenance and manufacturing.

As a Robotics Engineer, you will:

• Integrate and test sensors on the drone
• Develop new concepts for the drone, like faster winching
• Develop software in the flight controller and onboard computer to solve various missions
• Analyze flight logs when something goes wrong to find the root cause
• Do fault analysis according to spesifications
• Handle certification worklfows end-to-end from requirements to proof

Relevant technology:

• Autopilot: PX4 fork on NuttX (realtime embedded C++)
• Onboard software: python, gstreamer on Debian
• Communication: UART, I2C, CAN, USB, PWM, NMEA
• Control: GNSS denied navigation, PID controllers, RTK, BLDC
• Electronics: COTS electronics, BMS, PCB design
• Networking: openvpn, MAVLink
• Avionics: CubeOrange, Raspberry Pi, uBlox F9P, ICM20948, Camera

What we offer:

• Work on introducing a new means of transportation into society. Like building the first cars, you can tell your grandkids that "I was part of making this happen"
• Work in the leading environment in Europe for these systems.
• Large stock option package. When we succeed, we all succeed!

Practical:

• Position: 100%
• Location: Ski, Norway (10min train from Oslo)

Ideal candidate:

• Top 3% among your peers
• Impressive experience with autopilots, control, electronics, networking, avionics
• Hungry for results
