Shield AI is hiring an engineer to develop, integrate, test and deploy autonomous systems in Ukraine. The work mixes writing and debugging software with fitting autonomy onto fixed-wing, multirotor and other unmanned platforms, then troubleshooting in the lab and in the field during live flight operations, demonstrations and tests.

The role is based in the Kyiv region, with occasional travel elsewhere in Ukraine.
