We’re building safety-enhancing technology for aviation that will save lives. 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 are a team of mission-driven engineers with experience across aerospace, robotics and self-driving cars working to make this future a reality.
As a Flight Controls Engineer at Reliable Robotics, you will be part of the Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) Team. You will design, implement, integrate, and test flight control laws for all phases of operation including autotaxi, auto-takeoff, autoland, and automatic rollout. You integrate real-world hardware and C/C++ flight software as part of ongoing flight test programs, and perform simulation analysis and data reduction in our Python and C/C++ modeling & simulation environment.

• Establish autoflight and flight control system requirements
• Interface with Pilots and Operations team to develop flight test plans, respond to squawks, and communicate design updates
• Design and analyze flight control laws from conceptual design through implementation and certification
• Develop simulation models to evaluate flight control system performance and stability
• Implement control laws and algorithms in flight software
• Test flight software in simulation, Monte Carlo, hardware-in-loop, and flight
