The GAMMA project is consortium of North West Universities, BAESYSTEMS, NNL and NWAA seeking to stimulate the growth of the Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) industry in the UK through development of innovative mission system architectures and software.
You will join the existing team at Manchester for the last six months of the project. You should have UAV-related knowledge, skills and interest, with experience in at least one of the areas of UAV sensor integration, UAV flight testing and development of embedded software for UAV applications.
