🛠 Tech Stack

💼 About This Role

You'll design and evaluate flight-critical control laws for Mach's fixed-wing aircraft. You'll own the design, implementation, and validation of control systems from takeoff to landing. This role offers hands-on flight test and rapid iteration on next-gen defense platforms.

🎯 What You'll Do

• Design control systems for fixed-wing vehicles
• Implement control laws accounting for actuator limits and sensor noise
• Participate in system identification and aerodynamic model development
• Execute verification & validation work including SIL/HIL and Monte Carlo
• Participate in flight-test planning, execution, and post-flight analysis

📋 Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Physics, or Mathematics
• 0-5 years designing and fielding flight control systems for fixed-wing aircraft
• Deep knowledge of flight dynamics, stability, and actuator/sensor modeling
• Proficiency in C++, MATLAB/Simulink, and Python for modeling and analysis

✨ Nice to Have

• Experience with modern/MIMO control design (LQR, LQG, LTR)
• Experience with PX4 and ROS 2
• Familiarity with DO-178C/DO-331/ARP4754A processes

🎁 Benefits & Perks

• 🏥 Health Insurance
• 💰 Retirement Plans
• 📈 Equity Grants
• 📚 Professional Development
