Drone Systems Engineer


Location: Lafayette, LA
Position Type: Full-Time


About DMR Technologies


DMR Technologies designs and manufactures advanced unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) supporting agriculture, public safety, critical infrastructure, and defense. Our products combine mechanical engineering, electrical systems, embedded electronics, software, manufacturing, and autonomous technologies into complete drone platforms built in the United States. We’re seeking a Drone Systems Engineer who enjoys building products, solving technical challenges, and working across engineering disciplines to deliver reliable systems from concept through production.


Position Summary


The Drone Systems Engineer serves as the bridge between mechanical, electrical, software, manufacturing, and flight operations teams. This role is responsible for integrating subsystems into complete aircraft, validating performance, solving technical issues, and continuously improving DMR's products throughout their lifecycle. This position is ideal for engineers who enjoy hands-on product development and are energized by seeing their work deployed in real-world environments.


Responsibilities


  • Integrate mechanical, electrical, software, and communications systems into complete drone platforms
  • Build, troubleshoot, and validate engineering prototypes
  • Plan and execute laboratory and flight testing
  • Analyze test data and recommend design improvements
  • Support payload integration, avionics, sensors, and communication systems
  • Create and maintain engineering documentation, Bills of Material, and assembly procedures
  • Collaborate with manufacturing to improve product quality and production efficiency
  • Support root cause investigations and corrective actions
  • Participate in customer demonstrations and field evaluations as needed
  • Mentor engineering interns and support junior technical staff
  • Evaluate emerging technologies that improve DMR products and engineering processes
Preferred Qualifications


  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Computer Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics, or a related field
  • 3–6 years of engineering experience involving robotics, UAVs, aerospace, industrial automation, or electromechanical products
  • Strong troubleshooting and analytical skills
  • Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration abilities
  • Comfortable working in both office and production environments
Preferred Technical Experience


Experience with several of the following:


  • SolidWorks or equivalent CAD software
  • UAV flight controllers and avionics
  • Electrical integration and wiring
  • Sensor and payload integration
  • Battery and power systems
  • Manufacturing and Design for Manufacturing (DFM)
  • Python, JavaScript, or scripting languages
  • Git and engineering documentation tools
  • AI-assisted engineering and development tools
  • FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate (preferred)
What Success Looks Like


Successful Drone Systems Engineers think beyond individual components and understand how complete systems work together. They are comfortable reviewing CAD models, troubleshooting hardware, supporting manufacturing, participating in flight tests, and collaborating with software developers to solve integration challenges. They are builders, problem solvers, and continuous learners who enjoy seeing products move rapidly from concept to customer deployment.

Why Join DMR?

At DMR, you'll have the opportunity to influence products from the earliest design stages through production and customer deployment. Rather than working on a single subsystem, you'll collaborate across engineering disciplines while helping develop the next generation of American-made unmanned aircraft systems.
