About the Role
We are looking for a Senior Aerial Robotics & Control Engineer to own the layer that turns desired behaviour and trajectories into actual high-performance flight.
Responsibilities
- Develop and deploy advanced flight-control and aerial-robotics capabilities on real UAS platforms.
- Build robust interfaces between autonomy software, ROS2, MAVLink, PX4 and airborne flight-control systems.
- Translate desired trajectories and behaviours into reliable vehicle motion.
- Develop and evaluate classical, nonlinear, model-predictive and learned control approaches.
- Work on aggressive manoeuvring, trajectory tracking and high-dynamic flight.
- Characterize vehicle dynamics and use real flight data to improve control performance.
- Develop simulation-to-flight workflows for new controllers and behaviours.
- Explore learned control, imitation learning, policy networks and neural-control architectures where they provide meaningful advantages.
- Work toward increasingly direct learned control of aircraft motion and actuators where technically justified.
- Take ownership from simulation and software integration through real-world flight testing.
Requirements
- Strong practical experience with aerial robotics, flight control or highly dynamic robotic systems.
- Hands-on experience deploying control algorithms onto real vehicles.
- Strong understanding of rigid-body dynamics and feedback control.
- Experience with trajectory tracking, nonlinear control, optimal control or MPC.
- Strong C++ skills and solid Python skills.
- Experience with ROS / ROS2.
- Comfortable working with flight controllers and embedded systems.
- Experience tuning and debugging controllers using real flight data.
- Strong rapid-prototyping mindset and willingness to work directly with aircraft hardware.
