Systems, Equipment & Readiness Configure and verify GCS hardware, radios, antennas, and software prior to missions Conduct pre- and post-flight system checks and log anomalies or performance issues Assist with UAV setup, calibration, payload configuration, and teardown Support testing and integration of new aircraft configurations, payloads, and software updates
Team Collaboration & Communication Maintain clear, calm, and precise communication during live missions Provide structured feedback on mission performance, system behavior, and process improvements Work closely with engineering, flight ops, and training teams to improve reliability and repeatability Contribute to a team culture built on trust, discipline, and shared responsibility for safety
Relevant Experience (Ideal Candidate Background)
Strong hands-on experience with ArduPilot Prior experience operating a Ground Control Station for UAV or autonomous aircraft Experience monitoring and interpreting telemetry, logs, and system diagnostics Experience with data analysis, log uploads, and flight data administration
