As UAV/Drone Test Pilot, your mission is to safely and reliably operate our VTOL-capable UAS and expand their flight envelope, from first flights to fully automated operations. You act as pilot-in-command, leading flight test execution for VLOS and BVLOS operations, and ensuring every flight campaign is conducted with maximum safety, discipline, and performance.

• Complete training program (theoretical and practical modules)
• Support the planning, organization, and execution of ground and flight test activities
• Conduct UAV flight tests as Remote Pilot in Command in: Open category operations (<25 kg); Specific category operations within a multi-crew environment
• Safely operate prototype unmanned aircraft using handheld remote and ground control systems
• Conduct flight simulations for analysis and test preparation purposes
• Provide structured feedback to flight test engineers on aircraft performance and handling
• Support the development and continuous improvement of operational procedures, crew training and flight test processes.

• Proven hands-on experience as a UAV/drone pilot, preferably with model aircraft (fixed-wing and/or multi-rotor)
• Demonstrated ability to operate aircraft manually with low levels of automation, maintaining precise control under visual line of sight (VLOS) conditions (no FPV)
