Key Responsibilities:

• Develop guidance algorithms (terminal and midcourse) and state estimators for group 1-3 UAV platforms
• Work closely with the flight software and computer vision team to define requirements, develop GNC software and validate functionality in simulation on aggressive timelines
• Review test data captured from the flight control system, subsystems, and other test instrumentation to verify vehicle performance, evaluate GNC algorithm/controller behaviour, or debug incidents during testing or from fielded assets

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field with a focus on dynamic systems and control
• 3+ years professional experience in a GNC role, preferably focusing on missile or weapons systems
• Experience with tactical guidance algorithms and target state estimation development
• Experience with state estimation and filtering
• Kalman filtering, sensor fusion, complementary filters, etc.
• Experience in modelling and simulation of linear and nonlinear dynamic systems and model linearisation
• Experience coding in Matlab and Simulink
• C/C++ Proficiency
• Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance

Preferred Qualifications:

• Master's Degree or PhD in Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field with a focus on dynamic systems and control
• 5+ years professional experience in a GNC role, preferably focusing on missile or weapons systems
• Experience with flight test and debugging GNC on UAV platforms
• Experience with GNC design and analysis for fixed wing, rotary wing aircraft and/or tactical missile systems
