About the role

Automated aviation systems will enable a future where air transportation is safer, more convenient and fundamentally transformative to the way goods - and eventually people - move around the planet.
We're deeply involved in all aspects of the development and certification of the Reliable Robotics autonomy stack, and play a central role in bringing our aircraft to life.
You'll provide technical and architectural guidance on flight software components, from flight controls to redundancy management.

As a Flight Software Manager at Reliable Robotics, you'll lead and grow the team responsible for the safety critical flight software that makes the aircraft fly.
You'll own the maturation of engineering processes to balance immediate engineering execution with formal DO-178C verification, supporting rapid integration and testing of GNC algorithms while building out the software architecture for certification.
You'll work closely with leads across Guidance, Navigation, and Controls (GNC), Avionics, Systems, and Hardware to develop and execute technical roadmaps, manage priorities, and ensure your team is unblocked and empowered to deliver robust, reliable, and certifiable flight software enabling advanced autonomy.
An offer of employment will be contingent upon the applicant's capacity to perform in compliance with U.S. export control laws.

Bachelor's Degree in Aerospace, Computer Science, or related discipline
Experience with Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) algorithms, flight dynamics, and state estimation
Professional experience with Python for tooling, test, and data analysis
Must be willing to travel 10% of the time.

We're building safety-enhancing technology for aviation that will save lives.
We are a team of mission-driven engineers with experience across aerospace, robotics and self-driving cars working to make this future a reality.
Our Flight Software team is at the core of Reliable's autonomy mission, building safety critical embedded flight software, maturing next generation detect and avoid and communications technology, FPGA designs, and simulation and test infrastructure.
