Software Engineer, Autonomy

Develop and verify autonomy systems for aircraft and other autonomous platforms. The work spans onboard system verification, flight-test data analysis, simulation tools, and system-level design, with close collaboration across flight test, simulation, and systems engineering.

• Design verification architectures for onboard autonomy systems.
• Coordinate with flight-test engineers to collect and analyze system data.
• Build and maintain simulated sensors and behaviors with simulation engineers.
• Help define autonomy system architecture and subsystem requirements.
• Compare candidate technical approaches for specific autonomy functions.

• A bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer science, electrical engineering, aerospace engineering, or a related technical field.
• Experience programming in Python and C or C++.
• Familiarity with sensor fusion methods, such as Kalman filters.
• Familiarity with computer vision methods, including visual odometry or visual SLAM.
• Practical engineering experience in planning, perception, and decision-making, including through university projects or coursework.
• Interest in aviation and the future of transportation.

• Experience contributing to C or C++ projects.
• Familiarity with MATLAB or Simulink modeling.
• Exposure to functional safety requirements and standards such as DO-178, DO-254, or ISO 26262.

• Full-time, worldwide remote role with flexible location and a Scrum-based Agile process.
