Make drone delivery a reality!
We usually respond within a month
Aviant does home delivery with drones. We fly at 100 km/h to people's gardens and deliver food and medicine. After starting in the labs at MIT in 2020, we have performed over 8,000 flights, covered tens of thousands of kilometers, completed more than 30 contracts and managed to take a leading position in the European drone market. We just launched Europes largest base for autonomous last-mile delivery with drones at Ski. This will be a major event in European transportation, and we are now looking for a lead technician to be responsible for our workshop, maintenance and manufacturing.
As a Robotics Engineer, you will:
Integrate and test sensors on the drone
Develop new concepts for the drone, like faster winching
Develop software in the flight controller and onboard computer to solve various missions
Analyze flight logs when something goes wrong to find the root cause
Do fault analysis according to spesifications
Handle certification worklfows end-to-end from requirements to proof
Relevant technology:
Autopilot: PX4 fork on NuttX (realtime embedded C++)
Onboard software: python, gstreamer on Debian
Communication: UART, I2C, CAN, USB, PWM, NMEA
Control: GNSS denied navigation, PID controllers, RTK, BLDC
Electronics: COTS electronics, BMS, PCB design
Networking: openvpn, MAVLink
Avionics: CubeOrange, Raspberry Pi, uBlox F9P, ICM20948, Camera
What we offer:
Work on introducing a new means of transportation into society. Like building the first cars, you can tell your grandkids that "I was part of making this happen"
Work in the leading environment in Europe for these systems.
Large stock option package. When we succeed, we all succeed!

About Aviant
At Aviant, we enable autonomous package delivery by drone. After starting in the labs at MIT in 2020, Aviant has signed 25 commercial contracts in Scandinavia, flown over 8,000 flights covering more than 50,000 kilometers, built a robust team of 15 people, and taken a leading position in the European drone market. We have just launched Scandinavia’s first autonomous home delivery service with drone, called Kyte (https://kyte.delivery/). This marks Aviant as one of very few players worldwide doing autonomous home delivery by drone. Therefore, we are continually seeking enthusiastic top performers - people with a desire to work at the forefront of autonomous logistics.
