Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs

Analyze and tune aircraft flight-control laws using CONDUIT, MATLAB, and Simulink. Run Monte Carlo and full-mission simulations, evaluate stability and robustness, support automated verification, analyze flight-test data, and document tuning and verification results. Collaborate with GNC, firmware, aeromechanical, and flight-test teams to release safe, responsive controls for eVTOL aircraft.

Designs, implements, and verifies aircraft navigation and state-estimation algorithms for eVTOL platforms. Responsibilities include sensor fusion, Kalman filtering, sensor modeling, MATLAB and Simulink development, embedded deployment, simulation, hardware-in-the-loop testing, flight-test support, and navigation data analysis. The role collaborates with flight controls, firmware, avionics, autonomy, systems engineering, and flight-test teams.

Owns planning and execution of lithium-ion cell and aircraft battery pack testing, including performance characterization, thermal runaway, abuse, environmental, and durability testing. Designs fixtures, instrumentation, hazard controls, and data-acquisition systems; analyzes test results; supports model correlation and battery design improvements; manages external laboratories; and maintains safe, traceable, calibrated test operations.

Lead Agile/Scrum execution for embedded software, firmware, DevOps, and verification teams developing eVTOL aircraft. Manage backlogs, schedules, dependencies, risks, blockers, releases, defect triage, integration, testing, and verification across software, hardware, systems, manufacturing, and flight-test teams. Maintain execution visibility using Jira, GitLab, Smartsheet, and Microsoft Project while driving predictable delivery and continuous process improvement.

Develop and maintain aircraft-level and subsystem requirements for GNC, flight controls, estimation, sensing, and embedded software. Own Jama traceability, verification matrices, V&V plans, interfaces, and objective evidence through formal closure. Collaborate with GNC, software, electrical, aeromechanical, autonomy, safety, and flight-test teams. Support SIL/HIL, simulation, bench, ground, UAV, and crewed flight testing; participate in design reviews, aircraft integration, anomaly investigation, and root-cause analysis.

Build and maintain full-stack internal applications for exploring aircraft flight data. Develop Python backend services, HTTP APIs, web interfaces, dashboards, AI-assisted diagnostic tools, data catalogs, alert review surfaces, and distributable analysis tooling. Work directly with engineering teams to define requirements, support self-service analysis, and own testing, deployment, CI/CD, monitoring, and documentation.

Build and operate Pivotal’s flight data warehouse and telemetry pipelines using AWS Glue, Athena, SQL, and Python. Design curated data marts, fleet health alerting services, data quality gates, dashboards, and query interfaces. Own data infrastructure, deployment, monitoring, and schema evolution end to end while collaborating with firmware, GNC, battery, flight operations, systems engineering, and MRO teams on telemetry and airworthiness decisions.

The Verification Engineer will oversee aeromechanical subsystem verification, translating methods into tests, designing test fixtures, executing tests, analyzing data, and producing reports.

The Senior Electro-Mechanical Engineer will lead in the design and optimization of vehicle harness and avionics enclosures for eVTOL aircraft, ensuring robust performance and regulatory compliance, while collaborating with cross-functional teams for integration and testing.

The Senior Firmware Engineer will design and implement avionics firmware, oversee architecture, ensure compliance with DO178-C, conduct trade studies, and collaborate on safety requirements for eVTOL aircraft.
