Roles and Responsibilities:

Design and develop electronic hardware for EO/IR payload systems used in UAVs. Integrate high-performance CMOS/IR sensors, thermal imaging modules, and video processors. Develop and optimize real-time video transmission electronics (HDMI, SDI, LVDS, MIPI, Ethernet). Work on rugged, low-SWaP (Size, Weight, and Power) designs for airborne payloads. Implement power management systems for camera modules to ensure efficiency and reliability in UAV platforms. Ensure hardware meets defense-grade MIL-STD environmental and EMI/EMC standards. Collaborate with optics, gimbal/mechanical, and embedded software teams for seamless payload integration. Conduct lab and field testing for performance validation under vibration, temperature extremes, and high-altitude conditions. Prepare technical documentation, design reviews, and support defense qualification processes.
