Field Training & Support Engineer – Counter-UAS Technology

$140,000–$160,000 + Top Benefits

McLean, VA (In-Office)

This role puts you at the center of a growing counter-drone technology company, owning the technical relationship between engineering and the field. You'll be the primary product expert on RF-based C-UAS hardware and software, and the person both customers and internal engineering teams turn to when it matters most. If you want a role where your technical judgment directly shapes how mission-critical systems perform in the field, this is built for that.

You'll go deep on RF-based counter-UAS systems, not just support them from a distance. You'll lead training curriculum development, own the technical relationship with external service partners, and serve as the escalation point for the hardest issues in the field. This isn't a scripted support role. You'll be trusted to manage partner performance, validate technical documentation, and represent the field's reality back to the engineering team.
