Senior Software Engineer

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to help build and evolve SkyNav, our mission planning and ground control platform for autonomous aircraft operations

You’ll work closely with a multidisciplinary team across autonomy, GNC, robotics, flight operations, and backend infrastructure to build the operator tools that power our aircraft in the field

The work focuses heavily on desktop applications, mapping and geospatial visualization, real time telemetry, and intuitive interfaces for mission critical workflows

Build and improve SkyNav, our mission planning and ground control application used during real flight operations

Develop high performance desktop applications using ElectronJS, React, and modern JavaScript or TypeScript frameworks

Build interactive interfaces for mission planning, telemetry visualization, aircraft monitoring, and operational decision making

Develop mapping, geospatial, and 3D visualization systems used to display aircraft state, routes, terrain, airspace, and mission data

Work with real time telemetry and operational data streams where responsiveness and reliability are critical

Collaborate closely with autonomy, robotics, GNC, flight operations, and backend engineers to turn operational requirements into intuitive operator experiences

Contribute to frontend architecture, application performance, maintainability, and system reliability as the platform scales

Iterate rapidly with direct feedback from operators, pilots, and deployed customer missions

Help improve engineering quality through strong software design, code reviews, and technical collaboration- This role is ideal for engineers who have worked on aviation systems, robotics platforms, autonomy software, or other real time operational systems where software directly interfaces with hardware and live operations

We are specifically looking for engineers with strong experience in aviation or robotics environments, modern ElectronJS desktop applications, and mapping or 3D visualization systems

Comfort working on systems where reliability, clarity, and operational usability matter

Experience working with live telemetry, streaming systems, or operator facing control software

Strong experience with React and modern JavaScript or TypeScript development

Experience working on aviation, robotics, autonomy, industrial, simulation, or other real time operational systems

Strong experience building desktop applications using ElectronJS

Experience with technologies such as CesiumJS, Three.js, Mapbox, WebGL, or similar visualization frameworks

Strong software engineering fundamentals including system design, debugging, testing, and maintainable architecture

Experience building mapping, geospatial, or 3D visualization applications

5+ years of professional software engineering experience building complex production systems

Ability to work cross functionally with software, robotics, hardware, and operations teams in a fast moving environment

Background in unmanned aviation, aerospace, robotics, or defense systems

Experience building mission planning or ground control software

Familiarity with MAVLink, PX4, ROS, or similar robotics and autonomy ecosystems

Experience with terrain systems, simulation environments, or sensor visualization pipelines

Experience managing complex frontend state with MobX or similar frameworks

Experience shipping production software in startup or high ownership environments

Experience building software for operationally critical or safety conscious systems
