Full Job Description
What You Will Do
As a Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) Software Engineer on the Civil Aviation team, you will design algorithms help track and plan trajectories for thousands of aircraft operating in the National Airspace System (NAS). You will use your knowledge of state estimation, physics, aircraft design, optimization, and algorithms to design, analyze, and implement software to help monitor and control one the world's most complicated airspaces in real time.
What We Value
Experience designing algorithms for mission-critical applications
Expertise in core GNC domains, including state estimation and algorithm design
Experience with Monte Carlo analysis as a means to validate and tune algorithm performance
Domain experience in aviation or related fields where physical systems are modeled and controlled
Experience with modern programming languages such as Rust and Python
Strong collaboration skills and comfort working across teams in a mission-critical environment.
Proficient in leveraging modern LLM tools to accelerate development workflows and enhance code quality.
How We Hire:
We look at the interview process not as a screening or test, but rather as an opportunity to simulate what it would look like working together. We build the interview process around you.
