Job Technologien
Deine Rolle im Team
- Joby Aviation's Flight Research team is looking for a driven Navigation Software Engineer to contribute to the research and development of autonomous aircraft.
- We are a small, close-knit and agile team; you will work closely with radar, perception, controls, and autonomy engineers in Germany, Austria, and California to develop state estimation and navigation algorithms to support the development of advanced autonomy capabilities.
- The role focuses on state estimation, inertial navigation, and the fusion of radar and vision-based measurements into robust navigation solutions.
- You will develop and evaluate navigation algorithms, build sensor simulation capabilities, and analyze navigation performance using both simulated and real-world flight data.
- We're looking for someone who delivers high-quality flight software, acts with agency, and is capable of picking up a wide variety of tasks spanning research prototyping, production flight software, and analysis tooling.
- Develop high-quality navigation and state estimation software (C++) for experimental VTOL and CTOL aircraft.
- Design and implement multi-sensor fusion algorithms incorporating inertial, radar, and perception sensor inputs.
- Contribute to simulation and analysis tools (C++ / Python) used to evaluate navigation performance and algorithm robustness.
- Build and maintain sensor simulation capabilities to support algorithm development, regression testing, and performance evaluation.
- Collaborate closely with radar, perception, controls, and autonomy engineers to design well-integrated navigation and estimation architectures.
