About the role

Skyeton seeks an experienced Senior UAS Engineer to design, develop, and test payloads for Skyeton UAV platforms, integrating COTS and mission equipment, and architecting capabilities across multiple UAS and payloads. You will lead electrical, mechanical, software integration efforts, support flight tests at U.S. installations, mentor junior engineers, and help build R&D labs in Las Vegas while working in a fast-paced, prototype-driven environment with active U.S. security clearance.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
