Description
Do you want to work on a New Class of Unmanned Aircraft? Our product universe spans three different platforms with maximum take-off weights of up to 1000 kg and characteristic dimensions of 8 m: The hexacopter Grille for medical evacuation, the multi-role rotorcraft Wespe for logistics and support operations, as well as the fixed-wing unmanned aircraft Bussard for surveillance and intelligence missions. All systems are powered by RasCore, our highly redundant, military-grade avionics system for safe operations within EASA’s Specific Category. Three unmanned aircraft, one mission: to bridge the gap between small UASs and traditional manned systems.
As an ICA & Technical Documentation Engineer at AVILUS, you will support the creation, structuring, and maintenance of technical documentation required for the safe operation, continued airworthiness, and approval of our unmanned aircraft systems. Your work will cover Instructions for Continued Airworthiness, maintenance and inspection information, flight manual and handbook content, operational limitations, system descriptions, and other authority-facing technical documentation.
In this role, you will translate engineering design data, configuration information, safety and flight test inputs, operational concepts, and regulatory expectations into clear, controlled, and traceable documentation. You will work closely with engineering, maintenance, flight test, operations, safety, and airworthiness teams to ensure that technical documents are consistent, usable, and suitable for both operational use and authority review.
