Flight Software Engineer

Our client is a fast-growing, cutting-edge new-space company based in Los Angeles, building flight-critical systems with launches scheduled for later this year. They are expanding an elite flight software team and are seeking engineers who want direct ownership of low-level software that will fly on real hardware - not years from now, but soon.

What You’ll Get

• Responsibility for flight software on missions launching this year
• The chance to work within a highly selective, rapidly growing engineering team
• Exposure across the full flight software lifecycle, from design through launch and operations
• Competitive compensation and equity at an early-stage space company
• A fast-paced environment where execution and technical excellence are paramount

What You’ll Bring

• Strong C++ skills for low-level, performance-critical systems
• Experience developing software for products that fly (spacecraft, launch vehicles, UAVs, missiles, or advanced robotics)
• Comfort working close to hardware under real-time and safety-critical constraints
• Aerospace, defense, or robotics experience is highly valued but not required

We're open to candidates across a variety of experience levels, provided they’ve shipped flight-relevant software, so apply now to get your name in the mix for this elite team!
