Swarm Aero is redefining air power, building the largest swarming UAV and the most versatile swarming aircraft network in the world. The company is moving quickly to launch the first aircraft designed specifically for swarming, as well as the Command & Control software to mobilize swarms of thousands of heterogeneous autonomous assets and empower human operators to achieve superhuman results.
The team has created and exited multiple startups, negotiated defense deals worth billions of dollars, and designed and built 30+ novel aircraft, with aerospace experience from Scaled Composites, Airbus, Archer Aviation, Blue Origin, and Boom Supersonic.
About the Role
Our avionics system is built and running on aircraft hardware. The work now is extending it: new sensors, new capabilities, new functions, one integration at a time, for as long as the program runs.
We're looking for an experienced Embedded Software Engineer to join our avionics team and own that work. You'll write real-time embedded software that directly controls aircraft systems, from flight control and sensor integration to communication protocols. This is safety-critical software on hardware that flies, and the surface keeps growing.
What You'll Do
- Extend the avionics, autonomy, and ground control software for a large uncrewed aircraft, adding capability to a system that already runs
- Design, integrate, and support embedded systems in real-time and non-real-time environments, on the ground and in the air
- Bring up new sensors, payloads, and networking capabilities on existing avionics, and make
