  • Lead and grow the Flight Software engineering team, including hiring, mentorship, and performance management
  • Own the architecture and delivery of the airside flight-software stack across multiple vehicle platforms
  • Drive predictable, safe software releases for mission-critical systems and steward the long-term health of the codebase
  • Set and uphold engineering quality practices — code review, testing, and CI/CD — for mission-critical software
  • Own the flight software team's test strategy and unit/integration testing, partnering with the Test organization on SITL/HITL and flight-test execution
  • Define and maintain the software interfaces consumed by autonomy and adjacent teams

Requirements

  • Hands-on depth in flight-control / avionics software, or closely adjacent real-time control systems
  • Familiarity with flight-stack platforms such as PX4, Betaflight, ArduPilot, or comparable autopilot/flight-control software
  • Track record of shipping reliable software on hardware-coupled, schedule-constrained programs
  • Strong judgment on test rigor, technical debt, and quality for mission-critical systems
  • Able to operate as the interface between the team and senior leadership — managing expectations upward and clearing execution blockers for the team
  • Nice to have
  • Experience with contested-environment datalink / RF comms
  • Experience defining platform interfaces consumed by other teams — e.g. autonomy, gcs, etc.
  • Multi-vehicle / swarm systems experience
  • Background bringing up new vehicle platforms or product lines from prototype to production
  • US Salary Range
  • $198,000 - $277,500 USD
  • The salary range for this role is an estimate based on a wide range of compensation factors, inclusive of base salary only.
