What You’ll Do

Lead and grow the Flight Software & Algorithms organization — embedded flight software, GNC, autonomy, powertrain software, and simulation — managing managers and senior technical leaders.

Own the architecture, development, integration, and verification of all flight-critical and safety-critical software, from requirements to airworthiness.

Drive the design of GNC algorithms, state estimation, fault detection and isolation, and flight-control logic for a novel eVTOL configuration across hover, transition, and forward flight.

Oversee real-time embedded software for flight computers, motor/powertrain controllers, sensors, and avionics.

Make Archer's flight software AI-native: champion AI-assisted development, model-based design, automated requirements-to-code-to-test traceability, and learning-enabled control and autonomy — always inside a rigorous safety and certification envelope.

Partner with the AI-Native Engineering Platform & DevSecOps organization to exploit code-to-flight CI/CD, automated verification, and AI tooling that compound your team's velocity.

Establish and mature software development and assurance processes aligned with DO-178C, DO-330, ARP4754A, and ARP4761.

Ensure robust simulation, modeling, and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) environments for rapid, safe iteration.

Represent the organization in design reviews, certification discussions (DER/ODA), and executive-level program updates.

Build a culture of technical excellence, extreme ownership, honest debate, and "build like lives depend on it."

Required Qualifications

Bachelor's or Master's in Computer Science, Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, or a related field (advanced degree preferred).

12+ years in flight software, embedded systems, GNC, controls, or autonomy for aerospace, defense, spacecraft, or autonomous vehicles.

5+ years of engineering leadership managing managers and senior technical leaders, with a track record of scaling high-performing teams.

Proven delivery of safety-critical, real-time embedded software for aircraft, spacecraft, or autonomous vehicles.

Deep command of control theory, estimation, navigation, and flight-control algorithms.

Strong working knowledge of DO-178C, ARP4754A/ARP4761, and safety-critical development and assurance.

Demonstrated ability to set technical direction and drive execution in a fast-moving environment.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with eVTOL, electric propulsion, or novel aircraft configurations.

Demonstrated use of AI/ML, learning-based control, advanced perception, or autonomy in real systems — and a clear point of view on doing so safely.

Experience modernizing flight-software development with automation, model-based methods, or AI-assisted tooling.

HIL testing, simulation frameworks, RTOS, and tool qualification (DO-330).

Prior involvement in aircraft certification programs (DER/ODA interaction).

What We Look For

A leader who believes velocity is a feature, not a tradeoff — and that better, faster engineering makes aircraft safer.

Conviction that AI will reshape aerospace software, paired with the rigor to deploy it responsibly.

Ability to thrive in ambiguity, build structure where needed, debate on merit, and commit fully.

Passion for aviation and sustainable transportation.
