Field Applications Engineer

We are looking for a Field Applications Engineer with a strong embedded systems background who can operate comfortably across customer-facing technical sales, technical communications, and hands-on engineering support. This role is ideal for someone who can bridge engineering depth with clear customer communication and help articulate complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.

What you’ll do:

• Support pre-sales technical engagements with customers and partners
• Answer technical customer questions during evaluations, procurement, and integration discussions
• Translate customer requirements into clear technical recommendations and solutions
• Develop technical materials and written responses for proposals, grant applications, customer documentation, and partner communications
• Work closely with engineering and product teams to accurately communicate product capabilities and limitations
• Assist with hardware setup, integration, and field support when needed
• Represent the company in customer meetings, industry events, and technical discussions

What we need:

• BS/MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field
• 3+ years of experience in a technical pre-sales, solutions engineering, or FAE role
• Strong embedded systems background, including firmware/hardware integration
• Comfortable working with PCB hardware, embedded devices, and drone systems
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Ability to explain complex technical topics clearly and concisely
• Confident, extroverted, and comfortable interacting directly with customers and partners
• Strong technical writing skills, including the ability to contribute to proposals, grant applications, and customer-facing technical documentation
• Practical, hands-on mindset; effective in both lab and field environments

Would be an advantage:

• Experience with drones, robotics, RF systems, or edge AI platforms
• Familiarity with Linux-based embedded systems
• Experience supporting enterprise, defense, or government customers
• Exposure to wireless communications, telemetry, or autonomous systems
• Experience contributing to technical proposals, SBIRs, grants, or RFP responses

What you’ll get:

• Your work ships fast and gets used. Direct operational feedback from frontline users in weeks, not years
• A fast-paced environment with minimal bureaucracy and no “process for the sake of process”
• Competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package (insurance, paid sick leave, 20 paid days off per year)
• Flexible remote work options where possible
