About Vector Technics
Vector Technics specializes in the design and manufacturing of mission-critical motion systems for the aerospace and robotics industries. Based in Hyderabad, we operate a fully integrated, ISO-certified facility offering in-house engineering and manufacturing, including advanced high-performance propulsion systems. Our portfolio spans heavy-lift BLDC motors, tactical FPV motors, industrial ESCs, high-torque actuators, motion control drives, and power distribution boards - engineered for high reliability, payload capacity, and continuous-duty performance, backed by a secure, transparent, India-based supply chain.
Role Overview
We're looking for engineers with proven hands-on experience who can take ownership of complete systems and contribute from day one. This role covers system-level integration, testing, and evaluation of propulsion and power electronics on flight platforms — spanning FPV, multi rotor, fixed-wing, and VTOL configurations, from micro builds to larger systems.
You will test motors, ESCs, and power systems under real operating conditions, analyse behavior under load, identify failure modes, and drive performance improvements through structured testing and analysis. The role requires strong hands-on experience with propulsion, power electronics, flight control units, and communication protocols, along with the ability to translate system behavior into clear engineering outcomes.
Key Responsibilities
- Integrate propulsion and power systems into UAV platforms and test setups
- Work across UAV configurations, including FPV, multi rotor, fixed-wing, and VTOL
- Handle platforms ranging from micro UAVs to large systems
- Plan and execute flight testing under real operating conditions
- Evaluate electrical, thermal, and mechanical behavior of propulsion systems
- Analyse interaction between propulsion, power systems, control systems, and air frame
- Identify failure modes across motors, ESCs, and power delivery systems
- Perform root-cause analysis using data, logs, and repeatable validation
- Capture and analyse telemetry, logs, and flight data
- Provide structured, actionable feedback to engineering teams
- Support validation of propulsion and power systems as integrated architectures
Required Qualifications
- 3+ years of experience in UAV integration, testing, or system engineering
- Strong understanding of UAV system architecture and subsystem interaction
- Hands-on experience across FPV, multi rotor, fixed-wing, and VTOL platforms
- Experience working across UAV scales, from micro to large systems
- Strong understanding of propulsion systems, including motors, ESCs, and propellers
- Working knowledge of power systems, including batteries, distribution, wiring, and connectors
- Experience with flight control stacks such as Beta flight, PX4, ArduPilot, or equivalent
- Understanding of communication protocols such as PWM, DShot, CAN, UART, MAVLink
- Ability to configure, tune, and debug UAV systems
- Experience identifying system-level failures and debugging complex issues
- Ability to analyse telemetry, logs, and performance data
