Job Summary

Why work with us

We develop our software in the field and close to the points of use. Flight testing is key for what we do and we test all across Europe. Our team members have strong academic background in different fields such as Aerospace Engineering Computational Science and Engineering Robotics and Computer Graphics.

We work closely with top-tier partners ranging from drone manufacturers to research institutes. Our projects span from orders in collaboration with operational partners to low-TRL research with government agencies. Whether through formal R&D programs or rapid prototyping tracks we operate at the intersection of innovation and deployment.

Your role

As a Senior Engineer - Controls you will have broad ownership over core capabilities of our autonomous UAV stack. This includes guidance navigation and control (GNC) for interception and collision avoidance maneuvers robust state estimation in noisy sensor environments and interfacing with a variety of flight controller software systems. You will shape and drive the short-to-medium-term development roadmap. Υou may also take on the role of Tech Lead providing technical direction coordinating implementation efforts and ensuring delivery within the scope of a specific project.

  • Good understanding of and experience with modern C

  • Real-time software development experience such as game simulation robotics or embedded development.

  • Foundational understanding of fixed-wing and multi-rotor flight dynamics. Both from a theoretical background and from practical experience. You have closed the design build fly design loop either in a professional or personal context.

  • Experience implementing and tuning controllers in actual flight vehicles.
    You have worked with two out of the three: Betaflight Ardupilot and PX4.

  • Experience with state estimation and sensor fusion concepts.

  • Deep intuition for transform trees and pose representations used in game engines computer graphics and robotics. You can work confidently with quaternions and common spatial math without relying on a pre-made framework

  • A high degree of autonomy determination and grit in making cool tech work.

  • Big Plus Experience with AI coding agents and prompt engineering to accelerate your effectiveness and codebase ownership as a tech lead: experience with higher-level autonomy concepts such as path-planning and trajectory optimization
