Shield AI is an American defence technology company founded in 2015 that builds autonomy software and uncrewed aircraft for military missions. Its Hivemind autonomy stack lets aircraft fly, navigate and complete objectives without GPS, a remote pilot or a communications link, which matters in contested environments where those links are jammed. Headquartered in San Diego, California, the company fields the V-BAT vertical take-off aircraft with United States and allied forces, licenses Hivemind to other manufacturers and is developing the X-BAT jet for high-end missions.

Job Description:

What you'll do:

  • Assist in harness design
  • Support hardware bring-up, integration testing, and debugging
  • Participate in root cause investigations and corrective actions
  • Create and maintain integration documentation, test procedures, and verification reports
  • Work closely with mechanical, embedded, software, and manufacturing teams to resolve integration challenges
  • Support environmental and qualification testing of flight hardware
  • Contribute to continuous improvement efforts across hardware development projects

Required qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Aerospace, or Systems Engineering (or equivalent experience)
  • 0-3 years of relevant industry or internship experience
  • Strong fundamentals in electrical systems and hardware integration
  • Hands-on experience working with embedded systems, sensors, or power systems (academic projects acceptable)
