Madrid, España AHYRES HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE A tiempo completo

**Context and description**

Growing concern about climate change is currently driving the development of new, more sustainable unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) propulsion technologies. Hydrogen fuel cells are a promising option in this field, as they produce no greenhouse gas emissions. The main limiting factor for using this technology in aerial vehicles is weight and, to a lesser extent, volume.

The objective of this project is the development of a lightweight fuel cell so that the power system has a maximum weight of 16 kg, so that it can be embarked on an unmanned aerial vehicle providing it with a flight autonomy of 1 hour.

The gas supply and cooling system of the stack will be developed at ICB-CSIC, while the balance of plant and control system will be developed jointly between ICB-CSIC and INTA.

The researcher is expected to coordinate the electronic integration of the stack into the aircraft power system and to manage the laboratory and flight testing of the stack for subsequent analysis and certification.

The applicant will join the company's engineering and development department formed by a multidisciplinary team of researchers and engineers who have actively participated in national and European projects whose results have been disseminated in high-level scientific journals and conferences.

**Key Functions**
- Management of hydrogen fuel cell integration on company aircraft.
- System performance analysis, design of experiments and validation tests in laboratory and flight.
- Collaboration with CSIC and INTA researchers in the development and integration process.

**Essential Requirements**
- PhD in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, Aerospace, or applied sciences.

**Recommended Requirements**
- Basic knowledge of hydrogen fuel cells.
- Previous professional experience in R&D projects.
- Good knowledge of programming languages.
- Analytical skills.
- Good interpersonal, communication and teamwork skills to work in a multidisciplinary team.
- Fluency in English and Spanish is required.
