Senior Controls Engineer (GNC & Autonomy)

What we’re looking for

We are looking for a Senior Flight Software Engineer to shape the architectural design of our autonomous flight systems. In this role, you will bridge the gap between theoretical Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) and production-grade software engineering. You will not simply configure existing autopilots; you will engineer the core logic that defines aircraft behavior. Your focus will be on translating complex flight dynamics and control algorithms into highly efficient, deterministic, and safety-critical C++ architectures within the autopilot (e.g. PX4/ArduPilot) ecosystem.

The day-to-day

1. GNC Algorithm Development & Tuning

• Control Laws: Design and implement advanced control strategies (e.g., Adaptive PID, LQR, or Model Predictive Control - MPC) to ensure stable flight in highly dynamic and wind-disturbed environments.
• State Estimation: Work extensively...
