3D CADOSINT
Role Overview
Every subsystem on an autonomous aircraft competes for the same volume, the same CG margin, and the same access panel. This role owns the configuration that resolves those fights — the authoritative 3D arrangement that propulsion, structures, avionics, and payload all build against. You'll take mission requirements and turn them into a real vehicle: outer mold lines, internal packaging, and a weight-and-balance baseline that holds from concept through PDR while the design keeps changing underneath you.
These are clean-sheet platforms on startup timelines, with fast iteration and real operator feedback. You'll also be the person who knows what the threat looks like — benchmarking competitor and adversary unmanned systems so our configuration trades are grounded in what actually flies.
