Position Summary Apium Swarm Robotics (ASR) is revolutionizing swarm autonomy software for air, surface, undersea, and ground vehicles operating across dual-use commercial and defense environments. Our systems are deployed on real platforms, tested in the field, and delivered to customers operating in complex, uncertain, and safety-critical conditions. We do not build research prototypes or slideware. Our software is integrated into real vehicles, tested in the field, and delivered to customers who depend on operational reliability, speed of execution, and mission relevance. We prioritize performance over hype. ASR systems represent the next phase in autonomy: collaborative swarming. These are not like pre-programmed drones for light shows. We are creating real-time cooperative management that lets one operator control dozens to hundreds of vehicles in real-time with the ease of controlling a single vehicle. As such, this role requires comfort with responsibility, ambiguity, and operational accountability. The Engineering Technician supports the build, integration, test, and troubleshooting of Apium’s family of unmanned systems and equipment. Working across mechanical, electrical, and electromechanical disciplines alongside engineering and production, the technician assembles and validates mechanical and electronic assemblies, executes test procedures, diagnoses hardware faults, fabricates and maintains fixtures and test equipment, and supports prototyping and new-product introduction. The role is hands-on and floor-facing, and is central to treating integration and test as a first-class production work center while the operation scales.
