TYTAN TechnologiesAt TYTAN, we aim to set a global standard in autonomous air defense with AI-driven, cost-efficient systems that counter unmanned aerial threats at scale.
We protect people.
We protect critical infrastructure.
We protect European sovereignty.
We are looking for a Senior Avionics Engineer to define, implement, and validate the avionics architecture of advanced UAV platforms.
You will be responsible for integrating autonomy, GNC, and command & control (C2) into a coherent, reliable onboard system across fixed-wing, VTOL and transitioning aircrafts.
This role is hands-on, system-level, and deployment-focused.
You will work at the intersection of hardware and software, ensuring that all onboard systems communicate reliably and perform in real operational environments.
You will act as a technical sparring partner across avionics and system integration, contributing experience, pragmatism, and strong engineering judgment.
Your roadmap to make an impactDefine and own the end-to-end avionics architecture for UAV platforms, from concept to operational deploymentDefine and implement system-level integration of flight control (GNC), autonomy stacks, and C2 linksDesign and manage onboard communication architectures (e.
, MAVLink, DDS, Ethernet, CAN, serial protocols)Integrate and validate flight controllers, companion computers, sensors, radios, and payload systemsEnsure robust data flow, synchronization, and fault-tolerant behavior across all subsystemsTake avionics systems from lab setup to real aircraft, ensuring reliable sim-to-real and bench-to-flight transitionLead and support hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) and system-level testing, including debugging complex integration issuesWork closely with GNC, autonomy, C2, and EWIS/electrical teams to ensure tight system coupling and clean interfacesSupport flight testing, including system bring-up, monitoring, logging, and post-flight analysisDefine and implement system monitoring, health checks, and fail-safe strat.
