You support the hardware team from bench characterisation through data analysis<br>in MATLAB and Python.<br><br>You aren't just swapping components on a bench; you are helping generate the measured evidence that<br>decides what actually flies — and learning how unmanned hardware is designed, tested, and pushed to its<br>limits.</p> </div> <div class="TranslationField-module__fieldItem___g4pRX"> <h3 class="TranslationField-module__fieldItemName___Q0F_7 ds-type-heading-five">Responsibilities</h3> <p class="TranslationField-module__fieldItemValue___c0djd">&nbsp;</p> <ul
