Description

company Performance Drone Works (PDW) is building the next generation of tactical robotic systems used across defense, national security, and public safety missions. We are building a new center of engineering excellence to design our new category of tactical robotic systems and the industrial capacity to deliver them, bringing decisive airpower into the hands of every operator. We are not here to make promises; we are here to deliver real systems with real capabilities for real missions. You will join a team of operators, engineers, and builders who solve hard problems with humility and focus. We design and produce multi-mission aerial systems that operators trust to perform in real-world conditions, reliably, repeatedly, and at scale. Our approach is grounded in operator-centered design, rapid iteration from field use, and U.S.-based manufacturing. We operate by a clear set of values: Mission First, Aim Farther, Own It, Win Together. This is how we build advantage and how we help protect our service members, our communities, and our country. role What You’ll Do Lead the design, implementation, deployment, and sustainment of manufacturing test software systems supporting assembly, integration, calibration, and final system validation in production. Architect scalable software frameworks for automated production test fixtures, diagnostics, telemetry collection, and hardware validation workflows. Own software configuration management, deployment pipelines, version control, and release processes for manufacturing and production environments. Develop robust automation tools and scripts using Python, Bash, PowerShell, or similar technologies to streamline production operations and reduce operator error. Design and maintain Linux-based manufacturing systems including user management, permissions, networking, package management, and system hardening. Partner with electrical, firmware, and mechanical engineering teams to integrate software with embedded systems, sensors, robotics hardware, and test instrumentation. Drive root-cause analysis investigations related to manufacturing defects, test failures, production escapes, and system reliability issues. Establish software validation methodologies to ensure production systems meet product requirements, configuration control, quality standards, and operational readiness criteria. Improve manufacturing throughput, test coverage, traceability, and process repeatability through automation and data-driven decision making. Develop tools and infrastructure for data collection, serialization, logging, and transport across manufacturing and test systems to track ‘as built’ FW/SW configuration. Mentor junior engineers and manufacturing personnel on software best practices, debugging methodologies, and test system operation. Contribute to long-term manufacturing software strategy, tooling standardization, and production scalability initiatives. Collaborate cross-functionally with production, quality, supply chain, field operations, and product engineering teams to improve system reliability and operational efficiency. Support deployment, troubleshooting, training, and sustainment activities across manufacturing and operational environments as needed, leveraging Admin/IT support. Partner with product engineering teams to improve design-for-manufacturability throughout the product lifecycle. Requirements Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, or related technical field. 10+ years of professional experience in software engineering, manufacturing automation, robotics, embedded systems, or production test environments, including technical leadership of complex systems. Strong proficiency in Python and at least one additional scripting or systems language such as Bash, PowerShell, or C/C++. Experience designing scalable automated manufacturing test systems, reusable hardware test frameworks, and hardware-in-the-loop validation infrastructure. Deep expertise in Linux-based systems administration, deployment automation, networking, security, system services, and package management in production engineering or manufacturing environments. Experience with software configuration management, source control, CI/CD practices, and release management workflows. Familiarity with hardware interfaces and communication protocols such as UART, CAN, Ethernet, USB, I2C, SPI, or serial communications. Strong understanding of robotics, drones, electromechanical systems, embedded hardware, or autonomous systems. Experience troubleshooting integrated hardware/software systems in fast-paced production environments. Proficiency with data serialization and transport technologies such as JSON, Protobuf, REST interfaces, or similar frameworks. Ability to interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and technical documentation. Excellent analytical, debugging, communication, and cross-functional collaboration. Demonstrated ability to lead technical initiatives and drive projects and teams with minimal oversight. Experience with PostgreSQL, SQLite, TimescaleDB, InfluxDB, or similar data storage systems used for manufacturing traceability and analytics. Experience building production telemetry, yield analysis, and traceability systems that support manufacturing decision making. Preferred Experience developing production or engineering tools using Qt Framework or Python Qt bindings (PyQt/PySide). Experience with automated test equipment, instrumentation, hardware validation systems. Familiarity supporting manufacturing execution systems (MES), ERP integrations, or production traceability systems in HV production. Experience supporting products operating under quality management systems in robotics, automotive, or other regulated industries in medium to high-volume production. Familiarity with containerization, virtualization, or infrastructure automation technologies to optimize resources, application deployments and updates. Experience with PLCs and industrial communication control systems protocols (i.e.: OPC UA, SCADA). Candidates with experience in sUAV, robotics development, and/or hobby drones.
