Job Description: This position is ideal for an individual who thrives on solving complex integration challenges that span hardware, software, and systems engineering. A successful candidate will be skilled at deploying autonomy solutions onto unmanned platforms, preparing systems for flight, and troubleshooting mission-critical issues in both lab and field environments. The role is highly dynamic, requiring hands-on experience, strong systems thinking, and the ability to operate effectively in fast-paced, real-world test   conditions.   
Shield AI is committed to developing cutting-edge autonomy for unmanned aircraft operating across all defense domains, including air, sea, and land. Our Flight Integration Engineers are essential to bridging the gap between R&D and deployment, ensuring that autonomous systems function reliably and effectively when and where they are needed most.   What you'll do:
  • System Integration & Deployment — Integrate autonomy software onto unmanned aircraft systems, ensuring seamless operation across onboard compute, sensors, and control interfaces.
  • Pre-flight Preparation — Own the build, configuration, and validation process for flight-ready systems; coordinate hardware/software compatibility and mission readiness.
  • On-site Flight Test Support — Travel to test sites and support live flight operations, including safety checks, system bring-up, and troubleshooting under time-critical constraints.
  • Hardware/Software Debugging — Diagnose and resolve integration issues across complex autonomy software stacks and embedded systems in lab and field environments.
  • Flight Data Capture & Analysis — Manage data collection during missions and post test analysis, working with autonomy engineers to refine behaviors and identify improvements.
  • Collaboration Across Teams — Work closely with autonomy, GNC, systems, and test teams to ensure mission-critical functionality is delivered on time and validated thoroughly.
  • Continuous Improvement — Build tools and processes to improve integration timelines, flight test reliability, and team efficiency across deployment cycles.
  • Support Certification and Compliance — Assist with documentation and system-level validation required for certification, airworthiness, and compliance in defense-relevant environments.
  • Travel Requirement – Members of this team typically travel around 30-40% of the year (to different office locations, customer sites, and flight integration events).
Required qualifications:
  • BS/MS in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, and/or similar degree, or equivalent practical experience  
  • Typically requires a minimum of 5 years of related experience with a Bachelor's degree; or 4 years and a Master's degree; or 2 years with a PhD; or equivalent work experience.  
  • Proficiency in programming languages such as C++ and Python, and familiarity with real-time operating systems (RTOS).  
  • Proficiency with MAVLink protocol, ardupilot variants and QGC.  
  • Proficiency in Linux-based development and experience working with embedded systems, shell scripting, and system diagnostics.  
  • Knowledge of sensor integration, sensor fusion, and middleware frameworks (e.g., ROS, DDS).  
  • Hands-on experience supporting flight demos or live exercises.  
  • Strong problem-solving skills, with the ability to troubleshoot and optimize system performance.  
  • Excellent communication and teamwork skills, with the ability to work effectively in a collaborative, multidisciplinary environment.  
Preferred qualifications:
  • Direct experience supporting unmanned aerial systems or similar flight test campaigns.  
  • Familiarity with autonomy stacks, flight control systems, or GNC pipelines.  
  • Competence in sensor integration, electronics debugging, or avionics bring-up.  
  • Proficiency in developing automation tools for system testing, logging, and data parsing.  
  • Comfortable interfacing with defense stakeholders during field events or technical reviews.
