UAV Field Integration Engineer
Position: At Sightec, we develop competitive real-time visual autonomy and navigation systems for UAVs operating in GPS-denied environments. Our technology enables mission-critical aerial operations by turning visual data into real-time navigation and decision-making. Our systems are deployed worldwide across defence and HLS applications, supporting real operational missions and field deployments. We are looking for a UAV Systems Integration Engineer to join our team. This is a highly practical, field-driven role combining UAV integration, flight testing, customer-facing technical work, troubleshooting, and operational deployment. The role sits at the intersection of field activity, customer needs, and product development – working closely with customers and internal software, algorithm, and hardware teams to bring systems from integration to successful deployment. Key Responsibilities: Lead UAV integrations and system validation for customer-specific platforms. Operate UAVs during testing, demos, and field deployments. Integrate and validate electro-optical payloads, cameras, and vision-based systems. Troubleshoot hardware, software, communication interfaces, and system-level failures in lab and field environments. Analyze logs, telemetry, and system behavior to identify root causes and improve performance. Work directly with customers to understand operational needs and support deployments. Translate field issues and customer feedback into actionable engineering requirements. Assemble, configure, and validate system hardware as part of integration workflows. Support new product iterations through field feedback, system improvements, and operational insights. Requirements: Minimum 1 year of professional UAV operation experience (mandatory) — military, commercial, or industrial environments. Hobby-only experience is not sufficient. Hands-on experience integrating and operating Pixhawk-based UAV systems (mandatory). Strong familiarity with flight controllers and mission software (ArduPilot, PX4, Mission Planner, QGroundControl). Proven hands-on experience in UAV system integration and field testing. Experience integrating electro-optical payloads, cameras, or vision-based systems- strong advantage. Strong troubleshooting capabilities across hardware, software, telemetry, and communication interfaces. Ability to analyze logs, telemetry, and system diagnostics. Very good English communication skills Strong team player with a practical, ownership-driven mindset. Willingness to travel internationally for customer deployments, demonstrations, and field testing. More: The position requires real operational UAV experience and proven integration capabilities – not only theoretical knowledge or hobby-level familiarity. You’ll work closely with our software, algorithm, and hardware teams, lead customer integrations, and support live deployments in Israel and abroad. This role is primarily office- and field-based, with limited hybrid flexibility depending on operational and deployment requirements. If you enjoy working in the field, solving technical challenges, and taking systems from lab to mission-ready deployment — this role is for you. Please send CVs to: info@sightec.com Only relevant applications will be considered.
