Profile

Company profile

AerogridUAV is a TU Delft spin-off building autonomous, all-weather hybrid VTOL UAV solutions for demanding maritime and defence missions. Our patented Variable Skew Quad Plane (VSQP) technology is engineered for reliable VTOL performance in harsh conditions. Our ZEP-1 platform is designed for long-endurance missions and autonomous operations at sea, including autonomous landing on moving vessels in challenging sea states. We develop mission-critical autonomy, including GPS-independent landing approaches to support safer offshore logistics and operations. We collaborate with renowned partners including the Royal Netherlands Navy, U.S. Army, TU Delft, and the German Aerospace Center (DLR), alongside ecosystem stakeholders such as port authorities.

We are growing and regularly recruit; open applications are welcome, follow us on LinkedIn or contact us to discuss current opportunities.

Student profile

We are looking for an MSc/PhD graduates/students (for example in Aerospace, Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or Computer Science/AI) with a demonstrated interest in UAVs, autonomy, and maritime applications.

You have a strong foundation in one or more relevant domains, such as flight controls, guidance & navigation, sensor fusion, computer vision/perception, planning, autonomy/landing, or embedded software.

You are hands-on and enjoy preparing tests, analyzing data, debugging issues, and implementing improvements that are integrated directly into the system.

You work independently and proactively, while communicating clearly and in a structured way, so your work integrates smoothly into team development and tests with partners.

Career opportunities

We offer both Master’s thesis/internship positions and full-time roles for MSc and PhD graduates. Recruitment runs on a rolling basis, so you can apply year-round for open positions or submit an open application.

As a fast-growing startup, you’ll have real ownership from day one and quickly take on more responsibility. You’ll also participate directly in tests and exercises with our partners, and wherever possible your work is implemented immediately in the field and integrated into our systems.

Application procedure

We'll first review your resume and brief cover letter; you'll receive feedback within one week. We'll then schedule an initial interview to discuss your experience and motivation and align expectations. If there's sufficient common ground, we'll hold a second interview, if necessary, to delve deeper into the subject matter, potentially with additional team members and/or a short assignment.
