Neros is vertically integrating production of unmanned defense systems in the United States, securing the autonomous supply chain. Are you with us? Backed by Sequoia.
About the role
Neros builds drones for the modern battlefield. As a Senior Firmware Engineer on our Ground Software team, you will build the firmware that runs on our ground control hardware - the equipment operators hold in the field to fly the aircraft and see what it sees. You'll work across microcontroller and embedded Linux targets, own the latency and reliability of the operator's control path, and take your work from the bench to the field. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Design, build, and maintain firmware for ground control hardware across microcontroller and embedded Linux targets
- Own operator input handling, the communication link to the aircraft, and telemetry and video receive on the ground side
- Own latency and reliability across the operator's control path, from input to transmission
- Define the ground side of the aircraft-to-ground interface with the flight software team, including behavior when the link degrades
- Bring up and debug new ground hardware alongside electrical engineering
- Write unit and integration tests for your firmware, partnering with our test organization on hardware-in-the-loop and field testing
More about this role
Neros is a defense technology company rebuilding America’s drone industrial base. We design and manufacture high-performance unmanned systems that are tested in combat, iterated at startup speed, and built at massive scale. Our team culture is fast, hands-on, and obsessed with closing the gap between design and deployment.
As drones transform the character of warfare, Neros is delivering the systems the West needs to compete on the modern battlefield and deter the adversaries of democracy. We’re hiring engineers, operators, and builders who want to move fast, take on extreme ownership, and get capability into the hands of warfighters in months, not years.
