Advanced automation will make aircraft safer, more available, more affordable and fundamentally transformative to the way goods and people move around the planet. Backed by Lightspeed.
About the role
As a Flight Software Engineer, you will develop highly deterministic C++ software in a bare metal environment that works with sensors & control systems, robustly handles system faults, and integrates with other vehicle subsystems. You'll drive requirements and implement excellent unit tests. You'll also have the opportunity to work directly with flight hardware in the lab and on the plane, plan flight testing, and watch your code fly an aircraft.
