Job Description:
At Shield AI, we build cutting-edge autonomous aircraft that protect service members and civilians alike. Our mission is urgent, and our products are deployed in real-world operations today. We're looking for a Lead Flight Test Engineer to shape the next generation of autonomous aerial systems—and define how we test, validate, and launch them safely into the world.
In this high-impact, hands-on role, you’ll take point on flight-critical test campaigns for our VTOL UAVs—planning, executing, and iterating at speed. You’ll mentor fellow flight test engineers, set the technical tone, and help drive a world-class test culture that blends rigor, velocity, and operational focus.
This isn’t just another flight test role—it’s a chance to help build the foundation of how advanced autonomous aircraft are tested and deployed at scale. You’ll work on mission-critical systems alongside engineers and operators who are passionate about the work, and your decisions will directly shape the safety, performance, and impact of some of the most sophisticated aerial platforms in the world.
