    Quantum Frontline Industries (QFI) is a newly established German-Ukrainian defence joint venture between Quantum Systems and Frontline Robotics, created under the Build with Ukraine initiative. For the first time, Ukrainian drones will be manufactured on an industrial scale in Europe, combining Ukrainian battlefield-proven technology with German industrial automation to create a new model of cross-border defence co-production: the German Model.

    As a UAV Test Pilot, you will play a critical role in ensuring the quality and reliability of our unmanned aerial systems. You will conduct final product checks and flight tests, both indoors and in the field, to validate performance and compliance with company standards.

    • Conduct flight tests in controlled environments such as hangars.

    • Maintain accurate documentation, complete checklists, and prepare bug reports.

    • Travel to test sites for periodic outdoor flight trials.

    What you bring to the team:

    • Strong piloting skills for multicopter UAVs (e.g., DJI Mavic 3, Autel, FPV drones).

    • Proficiency in computer use and digital tools (Google Docs, Notion).

    • Solid technical understanding of drone systems and company-specific UAV features.

    • High attention to detail and disciplined execution of all test procedures.

    • A2 Remote Pilot Certificate (EU) for operating unmanned aircraft in the Open Category

    • Valid driver’s license (Category B).

    • Professional skills of communication in English or German

      • Ukrainian language as a significant plus
