  • Experience with Hardware-in-the-loop environments such as NI Veristand or dSpace (preferred).
  • Experience designing, implementing, or verifying state estimation algorithms or control laws (preferred).
  • Previous experience with flight control or state estimation sensors for eVTOLs, helicopters, or fixed-wing airplanes (preferred).
  • Experience working with aerospace data buses and communication protocols (preferred).
  • Experience working with regulatory authorities (preferred).
  • Ability to work without current work visa sponsorship.
  • Fully remote with occasional travel (~10%).
