Engineer - High Speed Unmanned Aircraft
Madison, AL โข On-site
Full-time
Posted 21 days ago
Job description
Griffon Aerospace, a leader in the Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) industry, is seeking a talented Engineer to support our high-speed aerial target and unmanned aircraft product lines. Our Madison, AL based small business is seeking innovative individuals who want to join an up tempo, maker culture that proudly provides products and services to support the American Warfighter!
This role suits a well-rounded engineer to be comfortable working across the full breadth of a UAV, airframe, propulsion, avionics, and electrical systems, rather than staying confined to a single discipline. Experience with turbine engines is a strong plus.
PRIMARY FOCUS
- Support design, integration, and test of high-speed unmanned aircraft across airframe, propulsion, avionics, and electrical disciplines
- Support propulsion system integration, including turbine/jet engine installation, fuel systems, and performance analysis
- Support aerodynamic, structural, and systems-level trade studies for high-speed airframe designs
- Support integration and troubleshooting of avionics, flight control, and electrical power systems on high-speed airframes
- Work across mechanical, electrical, and software teams to integrate propulsion, avionics, and airframe subsystems into a complete aircraft
- Support ground and flight testing, data reduction, and design iteration across all aircraft subsystems
- Partner with production and quality to resolve design-for-manufacturing issues
DESIRED SKILLS/EXPERIENCE
- 0-5 years of engineering experience, ideally in aerospace or other high-performance systems
- Experience with turbines or jet engines strongly preferred
- Broad, hands-on exposure to multiple aspects of UAVs, airframe/structures, propulsion, avionics, and electrical systems, rather than a single specialty
- CAD and engineering analysis tool experience
- Hands-on fabrication, integration, or test experience with high-speed or high-performance vehicles (UAS, RC aircraft, FSAE, rocketry, or similar)
REQUIRED SKILLS/EXPERIENCE
- Bachelor's degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field
- Strong fundamentals in at least one of: propulsion, aerodynamics/structures, or avionics/electrical systems, with willingness to work across all three
- Ability to work hands-on across disciplines in a fast-paced small business environment
- Strong communication and cross-functional collaboration skills
- Willingness to travel occasionally to support flight test
JOB LOCATION
- Madison, Alabama, United States
POSITION TYPE
- Full-Time/Regular
COMPENSATION/BENEFITS
- Competitive Salary/Comprehensive Benefits Package
US CITIZENSHIP REQUIRED
- Yes
ABILITY TO OBTAIN SECURITY CLEARANCE
- Yes, ability to gain and maintain a Secret clearance
