Drone Pilot & Flight Test Technician

Location: Aldsworth, Gloucestershire (GL54)
Job Type: Full-time

Help shape the future of British drone technology.

UAVTEK designs and manufactures advanced unmanned aerial systems (UAS), secure communications and counter-UAS technologies for defence, government and commercial customers worldwide.

We're looking for a qualified drone pilot to join our growing engineering team. This is a hands-on role supporting product development, flight testing, customer demonstrations and regulatory compliance.

You'll work alongside engineers to test new aircraft, validate software and hardware changes, support customer trials and ensure our operations continue to meet Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) requirements.

If you're passionate about aviation and drones, enjoy solving technical challenges and want to work with cutting-edge British technology, we'd love to hear from you.

Perform pre-flight planning, risk assessments and post-flight reporting.
Support flight testing of new products and engineering developments.
Assist with customer demonstrations and product evaluations.
Travel to customer sites and test locations across the UK when required.

Flight Testing

Collect flight data and accurately document test results.
Report defects and anomalies to engineering teams.
Support development and validation of new flight control software and hardware.
Assist with system commissioning and acceptance testing.

Compliance & Safety

Ensure all operations comply with CAA regulations and company procedures.
Maintain flight records and operational documentation.
Assist with Operational Authorisations and regulatory compliance activities.

Ability to reliably commute to, or relocate to, Aldsworth, Gloucestershire.

Desirable Experience (but not essential)

Experience operating multirotor UAVs.
Experience with ArduPilot or PX4-based systems.
Experience carrying out flight testing rather than simply flying missions.
Understanding of aviation safety management.
Basic mechanical or electrical fault-finding skills.
Experience with mapping, inspection or ISR operations.
Interest in defence technology.

Personal Qualities

We're looking for someone who:

Is calm and methodical.
Has excellent attention to detail.
Takes safety seriously.
Enjoys learning new technology.
Can work independently and as part of a team.
Is proactive and willing to get involved in all aspects of product development.
Represents UAVTEK professionally when dealing with customers.

Pay: £29,000.00-£38,000.00 per year
