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.

Flight Software Verification Engineer

As a Flight Software Verification Engineer at Reliable Robotics, you will be a key contributor to verification of embedded software that works with sensors & control systems, robustly handles system faults, and integrates with other vehicle subsystems. You’ll work directly with flight hardware in the lab and on the plane, plan flight testing, and watch your verified software fly an aircraft. Our Flight Software teams are deeply involved in all aspects of the development, verification, and certification of the Reliable Robotics autonomy stack, and play a central role in bringing our aircraft to life.
