Help build the communications and navigation systems that keep long-range autonomous aircraft flying - even under jamming, spoofing, and real-world EW threats.

What You’ll Do

• Build resilient GNSS and comms systems for autonomous UAVs
• Integrate radios, antennas, and multi-path links (RF, SATCOM, 4G)
• Mitigate jamming/spoofing and improve EW resilience
• Lead lab, ground, and flight testing - including controlled EW trials
• Track real-world EW tactics and apply them to system design

What You Bring

• STEM degree (2:1+)
• Experience delivering comms or EW-resilient systems
• Strong RF, GNSS, and system-integration skills
• Practical experience with radios, antennas, C/C++ or Python
• Delivery-focused mindset and ability to own multi-domain problems
