Career

HW Head of Hardware Team (UAV & Robotics)

At Fly4Future, we are building the future of autonomous flight. We develop advanced drone systems and robotic platforms for clients around the globe. We are a growing deep-tech startup full of technology enthusiasts, and we are looking for a leader who will shape our strategy, drive technical innovation, and have a direct impact on our company’s future direction.

What will be your job

  • Team Leadership & Development: Leading, mentoring, and fostering the professional growth of a team of hardware engineers and mechatronics specialists.
  • Prototyping & Mass Production: Designing and building HW prototypes from scratch (electrical and mechanical systems, PCBs, system integration) while establishing processes to transition toward serial, scalable manufacturing.
  • Strategy & Impact: Directly contributing to the company’s strategic vision—defining the HW architecture of our autonomous drones, testing platforms, and product roadmap.
  • Client & Partner Engagement: Providing technical leadership for projects and representing our solutions in front of key clients and international partners.
  • Integration & Testing: Overseeing drone assembly, system wiring, PX4 platform integration, and defining methodologies for both laboratory and field testing/diagnostics.

      What we require

      • Education: A completed university degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical field.

      • Team Leadership: Proven experience leading a HW/Electrical R&D team (setting goals, managing projects, conducting HW and design reviews).

      • Technical Expertise:

        • End-to-end HW development (from concept, CAD 3D modeling, and 3D printing to a physical product).

        • In-depth knowledge of electrical wiring, power distribution systems, and PCB design.

        • Solid understanding of mass production requirements and DFM (Design for Manufacturability).

      • Fluent English: Excellent communication skills (C1) for daily collaboration with an international team and presentation to global clients.

      • Startup Mindset: A proactive drive to take ownership, innovate in a fast-paced environment, and make a tangible impact.

       

      What would be a great plus

      • Hands-on experience in UAV/drone development, PX4 stack, and autonomous systems.

      • Practical experience with PCB layout tools (KiCad, etc.).

      • Basic understanding of C++, Python, Linux, or Git for seamless alignment with the SW engineering team.

      What we offer

      • Real Impact: A key leadership role where you directly shape the company’s direction.

      • Time Off: 25 days of paid vacation + 5 sick days.

      • Financial Benefits & Perks: Meal allowance, budget for IT equipment/education, and additional flexible benefits.

      • Cutting-Edge Tech: Access to top-tier equipment (Prusa/BambuLab 3D printers, modern CAD/PCB software, internal testing rigs, etc.).

      • Startup Culture: A friendly, informal environment within an international team of robotics enthusiasts.

      • Prime Location: Modern offices and workshops in the heart of Prague (near Charles Square / Lazarská).
