Job Title: Senior Drone Application Engineer (2)
Location: Saskatoon or Calgary
Company: Super GeoAI Technology Inc.
Role
We are hiring two Senior Drone Application Engineers to lead the development of advanced AI-driven drone applications that transform agricultural workflows. In this role, you will work extensively with drone SDKs—including DJI Mobile, Payload, and Onboard SDKs—to build, customize, and optimize flight applications. You’ll also integrate SGA’s proprietary AI algorithms directly into drone systems to enable real-time detection, analysis, and automation. This is a hands-on role where you’ll bridge hardware, software, and AI—delivering applications that redefine how agriculture is monitored and managed.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design and develop AI-enabled drone applications using DJI SDKs, ensuring seamless hardware integration.
- Integrate SGA’s AI algorithms into drone platforms for real-time detection, analysis, and decision-making.
- Optimize flight applications for performance, scalability, and reliability in diverse field environments.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams—AI researchers, software engineers, and product managers—to deliver complete solutions.
- Test, debug, and validate drone applications in both simulation and real-world field conditions.
- Develop supporting tools, scripts, and documentation to streamline deployment and operations.
- Stay current with emerging UAV platforms, SDKs, and AI integration methods to keep our solutions on the cutting edge.
Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Robotics, or a related field.
- Proven experience with DJI drone SDK development (Mobile SDK, Payload SDK, or Onboard SDK).
- Hands-on experience integrating AI/ML algorithms into production-grade drone applications.
- Proficiency in Python, C++, or Java.
- Strong understanding of drone flight control, navigation, and real-time systems.
- Familiarity with computer vision and geospatial AI applications (preferred).
- Excellent problem-solving skills with high attention to detail.
- Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced, field-driven environment.
This isn’t just building drone apps—you’ll be engineering the platforms that bring AI-powered agriculture to the skies.
