Top Engineering Jobs

Integrate and deploy autonomy software onto unmanned aircraft, prepare flight-ready systems, support on-site flight tests, debug hardware/software issues, collect and analyze flight data, collaborate across autonomy, GNC, and test teams, and support certification, compliance, and process improvements.

Lead and manage a perception engineering team developing production-quality C++ perception and state-estimation software (A-PNT) for GNSS-degraded environments. Integrate and test sensor fusion, computer vision, and estimator frameworks on aerial platforms, validate with simulation and real data, and collaborate with hardware, test, and cross-functional teams.

Lead simulation-driven testing and automation for autonomy software. Build and maintain simulation-based test frameworks and test harnesses (SIL/HIL/VIL), develop Python tooling for test automation and data analysis, execute regression/integration tests, diagnose issues with developers, integrate tests into CI/CD, and maintain test documentation and metrics for mission-critical autonomous aircraft systems.

Lead design and delivery of flight-critical power electronics for the X-BAT aircraft, including inverters, DC-DC converters, and battery management. Own full hardware development cycle, drive PCB layout, harden designs for harsh environments, mentor engineers, lead reviews, and manage program timelines through production.

Design and execute test strategies for flight-critical XBat software and systems. Develop test plans/procedures, run V&V and regression tests, analyze test data, troubleshoot issues, and collaborate with engineering, manufacturing, and program teams to ensure performance, reliability, and mission readiness.

Own and maintain native C++ build systems for autonomous aircraft. Improve developer velocity by reducing build/test cycle time, integrate CI with HIL and simulation, implement monitoring and alerts, troubleshoot build/test failures, and collaborate with engineers to design and deploy DevEx/DevOps solutions.

Lead vibration test programs: design and build instrumented test setups, run shaker table and modal tests, analyze frequency/time-domain data, correlate with FEA, investigate failures, and produce test plans/reports to qualify aerospace hardware.

Serve as the mission-systems SME for V-BAT fleet support, lead escalated investigations into payloads, transponders, and external interfaces, troubleshoot hardware/software/networking interoperability, support lab validation and field demonstrations, and produce customer-facing technical documentation and lessons learned.

Serve as the propulsion SME for Fleet Support, diagnose and resolve engine and fuel/oil system issues, analyze flight and maintenance data, develop troubleshooting and repair guidance, and drive corrective actions with propulsion, vehicle, manufacturing, quality, and supplier teams to improve fleet reliability.

Lead propulsion test planning and execution for X-BAT, overseeing engine, hover, static, and integrated propulsion tests. Define test objectives, procedures, hazard analyses, instrumentation, and safety documentation. Provide technical oversight during runs, support root-cause investigations, and collaborate with autonomy, avionics, and instrumentation teams. Support field deployments and test campaigns.
