About the role:  

One Way Aerospace is looking for a highly ambitious, self-motivated, and experienced individual for the position of Robotics Software Engineer. In this role, you will design, implement, and test a broad range of software and firmware systems that are suitable for aircraft with vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) capacity.

Job Requirements:

• Develop advanced guidance, navigation, and control behaviors for autonomous, payload, long-range VTOL, aircraft operating in multiple complex scenarios
• Work with machine vision and perception specialists to build a rich set of autonomous capabilities based upon sophisticated sensor fusion
• Source, qualify, select and validate a variety of perception sensors
• Source and/or develop sensor drivers as needed to pull data into the robotic system
• Rapid prototyping of sensor and actuator subsystems to eliminate uncertainties in forward-looking aircraft design
• Work closely with the Controls and Reliability teams to ensure a smooth handoff of validated systems
• Assist in troubleshooting sensor, actuator and controls problems that arise in pre-production systems
• The hightop software and firmware that is the reproducible, traceable and transparent manner to ensure a streamline, efficient production system
• Develop tests, set up continuous integration pipelines and document design decisions

Essential Qualification:

• Advanced written and communication skills
• The high degree of proficiency with program software and language used in embedded systems and robotics
• Prior experience and practical operation of robotics and autonomous vehicle technologies and techniques such as stereo vision, mapping, localization, static, dynamic and non-cooperative obstacle avoidance, sensor fusion and filtering
• Advanced knowledge of robotics algorithms and an understanding of real-time systems
• Advanced knowledge of concurrent programming and memory management in bare metal, RTOS, or Linux based environments
• Ability to read and write sensor and actuator drivers written in a C-like language
• Experience using common Linux command-line tools for building and testing code
• Ability to break down complex, long-term projects into a series of smaller iterations with finite time constraints
• Minimum of three years of ex-high-reliability a series of robotic systems

Desired Qualifications:

• Prior experience building custom software for drones / UAVs / flying robots
• Prior experience developing vision-based perception code, especially with Nvidia Jetson and CUDA
• Prior experience developing safety-critical systems such as aerospace, automotive, or rail devices
• Prior experience working in a high-reliability software development practice such as ASTM F3201-16 or DO-178C
• Prior experience working in an Agile development environment
