The Role
Lead the development of real-time, safety-critical onboard software for embedded GPU platforms, focusing on AI perception and optimization.
Summary Generated by Built In
Evolved Aerospace develops mission-critical aerospace systems designed for real operational use.
We combine autonomy, software, sensing, and systems integration to deliver capability that performs in contested and constrained environments — not just in test settings.
Our work is guided by a simple principle: platforms are means, not the objective. Mission outcomes define success.
Senior Embedded Systems Engineer – Tech Lead (Edge AI)
