You must be ready to stay focused, move fast, self-direct, and learn on the fly.
Key Responsibilities
Develop software capabilities such as algorithms for vehicle guidance, attitude control, engine control, and state estimation
Develop and validate vehicle and environment models to simulate GNC algorithm performance and robustness
Ensure system quality and performance through rigorous test
Conduct Monte Carlo analysis of nominal and failure cases to evaluate vehicle performance and flight safety

It does not discriminate on the basis of nationality, race, citizenship, immigration status, or any other protected class when it comes to employment practices, including hiring.
Employment at the Company is contingent upon satisfactory completion of reference and backgroundchecks, and on your ability to prove your identity and authorization to work in the U.S. for the Company.

Employment or continued employment may be conditioned on your legal authorization to work with or have access to export control materials as necessary to perform your job.
