Integration Specialist

About the role

The Integration Specialist is a hands-on technical role responsible for integrating new hardware, software, and payload capabilities onto EOTECH Autonomy's small, unmanned aircraft platform, testing those integrations in the lab and in flight, and reporting results to the Technical Director. The role also serves as a demonstration pilot, flying the aircraft at customer, government, and industry events. This is a build, fly, break, fix, and document position.

Responsibilities

• Take direction and assigned tasks from the Technical Director to integrate new capabilities onto the drone platform, including sensors, payloads, radios, flight controllers, companion computers, and software.
• Perform bench setup, wiring, firmware configuration, and parameter tuning for each integration.
• Plan and execute ground and flight tests to verify each integration performs as intended.
• Record clear, written test notes documenting setup, procedure, results, and whether the integration succeeded or failed, and report findings back to the Technical Director.
• Troubleshoot failures, identify root cause where possible, and propose corrective actions.
• Fly FPV demonstrations at customer sites, military installations, trade shows, and field events. Prepare, pack, transport, and maintain demonstration aircraft and ground equipment.
• Maintain flight logs, aircraft configuration records, and a current inventory of test and demonstration hardware.
• Follow all range safety rules, airspace requirements, and company flight operations procedures.
• Support production and engineering with builds, repairs, and tuning when integration workload allows.
• Handle company and customer information with discretion; some work will involve controlled unclassified information.
