Autonomy Engineer

About Us

We are redefining the future of autonomous intelligence, building AI and autonomy solutions for unmanned systems in GPS-denied and contested environments. Our mission is to push the boundaries of what autonomous systems can achieve across defense and commercial applications like logistics and disaster response.

About the Role

As an Autonomy Engineer – Motion Planning & Controls, you will design, build, and validate motion planning and control systems for autonomous vehicles. You’ll collaborate with cross-functional teams on rapid prototyping and hardware/software co-development, driving concepts from idea to prototype.

Responsibilities

• Design, implement, and maintain motion planning, trajectory optimization, and control software.
• Integrate systems into real-world platforms.
• Apply state-of-the-art research to practical implementations.

Requirements

• Master’s or PhD in Engineering, Robotics, Computer Science, or related field (or equivalent experience).
• Proficiency in C/C++ and production-grade software development.
• Strong foundation in modern control systems (including MPC) and motion planning.
• Experience with rotorcraft or fixed-wing flight dynamics and real robotics platforms.
• Comfortable with multi-threaded real-time systems.

Nice to Have

• Experience with learned motion planning, multi-agent systems, embedded platforms, microcontrollers, flight control systems, and optimization techniques.

Why Join

• Work at the cutting edge of autonomy and AI.
• Collaborative, high-trust culture with focus on innovation and learning.
• Competitive salary, equity, and benefits.
