At Odys, we’re mobilizing power, with Hybrid Power Systems developed for aerospace and in-demand everywhere. It’s the kind of mission diversity that demands a fresh way of thinking.

We began with an early bet on hybrid, when the mobility industry was focused on batteries. We designed, tested, and validated our first 1 MW high-speed generator in 12 months. And then we pushed further, developing systems with greater power density in less time. Today, our Hybrid Power Systems offer outputs ranging from 20 kW to 4 MW, with applications in the air or on the ground.

One of those applications is Laila, an unmanned drone designed for critical logistics and defense missions. With its 100 kW-class onboard Hybrid Power System, Laila can support medical cold-chain transport or serve as an aerial platform for counter-UAS measures.

The market interest has been overwhelming: Over 30 inbound requests from leading US and global manufacturers, and 14+ DoD contracts.

Our team comes from deep tech and aerospace, with backgrounds spanning drone and aircraft development, high-volume production, and electrified mobility.

We operate with urgency and ownership at every level. We validated high-speed generator technology faster than our peers, not because we skipped steps, but because we've been doing this long enough to know which ones matter most.

Responsibilities

~1 min read

• Build, route, and terminate low- and high-voltage (14 V DC to 800 V DC) wiring harnesses, connectors, and cable assemblies for propulsion, avionics, and flight-control systems.
• Fabricate and populate PCBs, breakout boxes, and test fixtures; perform rework and component replacement to IPC-610/620 standards.
• Install, calibrate, and maintain sensors (current, voltage, temperature, pressure, vibration) and data-acquisition hardware on propulsion test stands and prototype aircraft.
• Execute continuity, insulation-resistance, and hipot tests; diagnose faults with oscilloscopes, multimeters, CAN bus analyzers, and high-voltage safety equipment.
• Collaborate with power-electronics, motor-control, and avionics engineers to integrate inverters, converters, and PMSM motor drives into propulsion testbeds.
• Document build procedures, wiring diagrams, and inspection results.
• Support environmental, vibration, and EMI/EMC test campaigns; assist with rapid troubleshooting during ground and flight testing.
• Champion a culture of safety by enforcing lock-out/tag-out, HV PPE, and hazardous-energy control procedures in the lab and hangar.

Requirements

~2 min read

• Associate or Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering Technology, Avionics, or a related field—or equivalent hands-on experience.
• 3+ years of experience assembling and troubleshooting aerospace, automotive, or industrial electrical systems at voltages above 300 V DC.
• Proficiency in reading electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and harness drawings (KiCad, Altium, or similar).
• Demonstrated skill in crimping, soldering, harness over-braiding, heat-shrink moulded parts, and connector back-shell termination.
• Familiarity with IPC/WHMA-A-620, NASA-STD-8739, or comparable workmanship standards.
• Working knowledge of CAN, RS-422/485, and Ethernet wiring practices, shielding, and grounding.
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to execute tasks independently while meeting tight deadlines.

• Experience with eVTOL or aerospace powertrain development, including DO-160G environmental and EMI/EMC test procedures.
• Hands-on exposure to inverters, gate-driver circuits, and high-frequency switching layouts.
• Certification to IPC-J-STD-001 (Space Addendum) or FAA Repairman Certificate for wire harness assembly.
• Familiarity with HV safety interlocks (HVIL), battery management systems, and contactor control logic.
• Experience installing and troubleshooting flight-worthy instrumentation (strain gauges, thermocouples, RTDs) and associated DAQ software.
• Proven track record supporting prototype aircraft or UAV flight-test programs in cross-functional engineering teams.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; ability to generate clear build logs, discrepancy reports, and red-lined drawings for configuration control.
