Autonomy Software Engineer

MORSE is looking for an Autonomy Software Engineer to research, develop and prototype novel autonomy software to enable pre-mission planning and operation of novel aircraft and other autonomous systems. MORSE is seeking an aeronautical, aerospace, mechanical, or electrical engineer in optimization, estimation theory, and/or guidance, navigation and control (GNC) algorithms. Responsibilities will include autonomy development from conceptualization, including the selection and evaluation of sensors, implementation, including software development, and evaluation, including data analysis.

The role will involve developing and testing code in a simulation and HWIL environment as well as field tests of the implemented autonomy software. The ideal candidate will have a strong foundation in physics, math, statistics, and computer science, as well as experience handling electronic hardware and machine learning. The candidate will work with a multidisciplinary team in an agile environment to rapidly design, prototype and test autonomous systems.
