Description
Pyka is looking for a flight test engineer to support the development and testing of its advanced autonomous aircraft. You will spend most of your time in Dixon or Victoria Island, CA, but may travel for 1-2 weeks at a time for both spray and cargo demonstrations and to provide support to customer locations.
This is a multidisciplinary role that interacts with internal and external organizations, so written and verbal communication skills are critical. You will be instrumental in ensuring the standardization of aircraft ground and flight operations and procedures, instructional techniques, as well as informing the evolution of the product itself.
An engineering degree is not required, although the candidate must be technically knowledgeable, preferably with experience with flight operations with either manned aircraft or UAVs.
