We are seeking a skilled Electronics Engineer with over 4 years of hands-on experience in electronics and radio frequency (RF) systems, who is passionate about working with complex, physically-driven hardware systems, such as drones.

If it sounds like you:
 

• You possess a high degree of autonomy and self-motivation, capable of managing your tasks independently while maintaining meticulous attention to detail;
• Analytical and iterative mindset, viewing "imperfect" prototypes not as failures, but as opportunities to test, diagnose, and optimize;
• Proactive person, comfortable working closely with the engineering team to share results, hand over files, and integrate feedback;
• You have a growth mindset and are adaptable, demonstrating a clear willingness to learn, expand your technical skills, and pivot to new tasks as required by the project.

Hard skills/Requirements:
 

• 4+ years of hands-on experience in electronics, including analog circuits and radio electronics;
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electronics, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field (or equivalent technical training);
• Experience in developing electrical schematics and printed circuit boards (PCBs) using KiCad or similar CAD tools;
• Skills in creating technical diagrams in vector graphics editors (Inkscape or similar):
• Experience with manual soldering, assembly, testing, and rework of prototypes;
• Basic understanding of electronic components, circuit logic, and a systems-level approach to design;
• Self-sufficiency, strong attention to detail, and the ability to work with imperfect early-stage prototypes;
• Willingness to learn, expand your technical knowledge base, and adapt to new tasks.

Responsibilities:
 

• PCB development in KiCad: creating electrical schematics, component selection, routing, and board layout in accordance with system requirements;
• Working with vector graphics editors (e.g., Inkscape) to quickly create connection diagrams for soldering or prototype visualization;
• Physical assembly and soldering of initial prototypes for testing, followed by analysis and implementation of changes to the design or electronics;
• Integration of electronic components into drone systems, including power, analog, and RF modules;
• Participating in the testing, diagnostics, and debugging of developed systems;
• Close collaboration with the engineering team to hand over working schematics, PCB files, and prototyping results;
• Optimization of electronic circuits and boards based on test results and real-world assemblies.

What we offer:
 

• Work for Ukraine’s victory at Defense Tech company, where your work directly contributes to strengthening our country’s defense capabilities and achieving victory;
• We guarantee full official employment from day one;
• Reservation of employees from day one, subject to relevant documents;
