Software Developer

Software Developer focuses on write high-quality c++ that runs on embedded flight controllers. you care about correctness, not just compilation.

What the role involves

• Write high-quality C++ that runs on embedded flight controllers. You care about correctness, not just compilation.
• Tune PID loops and control systems against real flight data and simulation — not just defaults.
• Maintain SITL environments so that new code can be validated before it ever sees air time.
• Define and execute software test plans across bench, SITL, ground, and flight environments.
• Design decisions, and parameter rationale to a standard that a new engineer can inherit.
• Attend flight testing sessions at our test site. You need to see the platforms you are responsible for, in the air.

Skills and requirements

• Proven hands-on experience with Ardupilot, PX4, or a comparable open-source autopilot stack.
• Strong working knowledge of MAVLink, mission planning tools, and UAV communication protocols.
• Practical experience with UAV tuning, flight testing, and log analysis using Mission Planner, MAVProxy, or equivalent.
• Excellent working knowledge of C++.. you write it, you read it, you review it.

Candidate fit

• technical problem-solving, code quality, testing discipline, and clear collaboration
