Aerial Installation jobs in Bognor Regis

Build the systems powering the future of autonomous aviation

If you're someone who enjoys building complex systems, solving practical engineering problems, and seeing your work operate in the real world, this is a rare opportunity to join one of the UK's most exciting deep-tech companies as it scales from innovation into impact.

sees.ai is developing the operating system for autonomous drone operations, enabling advanced drones to be deployed safely beyond visual line of sight in support of critical national infrastructure. Our technology is already delivering real-world value, and we're now expanding our operational fleet and deployment capability.

We're looking for an Mechatronics / Integration Technician to help build, integrate, test, and maintain the sophisticated unmanned systems that sit at the heart of those operations.

The Opportunity

This is not a repetitive production-line assembly role.

You'll be working on advanced unmanned aerial platforms that combine sensors, communications equipment, compute hardware, power systems, and mission-critical payloads into operational systems deployed in demanding environments.

The role sits at the intersection of engineering, operations, and deployment. You'll work closely with software engineers, hardware engineers, and flight operations specialists to ensure systems are built reliably, configured correctly, and ready for operational use.

As the company grows, you'll have the opportunity to contribute not only to system builds, but also to improving integration processes, workshop standards, testing approaches, and the scalability of our operational capability.

What You'll Be Doing

• Building, integrating and configuring complex unmanned systems
• Carrying out wiring, harnessing, mechanical assembly and system installation
• Supporting testing, troubleshooting and fault diagnosis
• Working with engineering teams to validate system performance
• Supporting maintenance, upgrades and operational readiness of the fleet
• Helping improve integration processes, workshop standards and testing procedures

What We're Looking For

• Experience building or integrating complex electromechanical systems
• Strong practical assembly, wiring and integration skills
• Ability to read technical drawings, schematics or integration documentation
• Experience diagnosing and resolving hardware or system issues
• High attention to detail and pride in build quality
• Comfortable working in a fast-moving engineering environment

Desirable Experience

• UAV, robotics, aerospace, defence or motorsport experience
• Linux, networking, embedded systems or RF communications exposure
• Soldering, crimping and cable assembly experience
• Experience supporting prototype or low-volume production environments

Why Join sees.ai?

You'll join a mission-driven team solving some of the most interesting challenges in autonomous aviation. The environment is hands-on, collaborative and fast-moving, with a genuine opportunity to influence how systems are built as the company scales.

Alongside a generous share option scheme, employees enjoy regular socials, a beautiful converted-school office, on-site café, gym, tennis courts, nursery, free parking, great coffee and a well-stocked snacks fridge.
