TL;DR
Staff GNC Engineer (Aerospace): Designing and implementing flight control algorithms, simulations, and verification systems for all-electric VTOL aircraft with an accent on vehicle dynamics, control theory, and system architecture. Focus on building high-fidelity vehicle models, analyzing flight-test data, decomposing requirements, and safely evaluating aircraft capabilities.

Location: München, Bavaria, Germany

Company

hirify.global develops an advanced air mobility platform featuring electric air taxis, unmanned aircraft systems, aviation-related physical AI solutions, and other aerospace and defense technologies.

What you will do

  • Lead teams designing and implementing flight control algorithms for electric VTOL aircraft.
  • Connect GNC requirements with broader system requirements and decompose higher-level requirements with Systems Engineering.
  • Build simulations, improve vehicle and environment models, and develop verification and validation solutions for complex systems and software.
  • Run aircraft design and system architecture trade studies and influence decisions affected by GNC systems.
  • Collaborate with Flight Test to design safe evaluations of vehicle capabilities and analyze full-scale and subscale flight data.
  • Author software requirements and test cases while working with Systems Safety and Systems Engineering to identify and correct Flight Control System deficiencies.

Requirements

  • Strong knowledge of vehicle dynamics, optimization, and classical and modern control theory.
  • BS in Aerospace Engineering, Electrical or Computer Engineering, or a related field with at least 10 years of relevant experience; or MS with at least 8 years; or PhD with at least 6 years.
  • Proficiency in MATLAB and Simulink.

Nice to have

  • Experience verifying GNC systems in simulation and on hardware.
  • Experience with envelope protection, physics, sensor and actuator modeling, and system identification for aircraft or rotorcraft.
  • Knowledge of fault detection and isolation techniques.
  • Experience implementing trajectory generation or optimization algorithms.
  • Flight testing or piloting experience with piloted or autonomous aircraft or rotorcraft.

Culture & Benefits

  • Inclusive and equitable workplace focused on diversity and collaboration.
  • Reasonable accommodations are available for applicants with disabilities or sincerely held religious beliefs.
  • Certain positions may be eligible for visa sponsorship.
  • Employment decisions are based on merit, qualifications, and business needs.
