We’re hiring for multiple positions within a leading Guidance, Navigation & Control (GNC) group that plays a vital role in developing advanced algorithms for navigation, control, and autonomy. This team supports the full lifecycle of complex airborne systems, from early research and feasibility studies to product development and in-service upgrades.

With a strong focus on technical excellence, innovation, and collaboration, the GNC group works across a broad range of domains including AI/ML, sensor fusion, robotics, and real-time implementation.

We’re keen to hear from you if you have experience in any of the following areas:

  • Algorithm Engineering – including guidance, control, navigation, and tracking algorithms.
  • Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence – particularly those with an engineering or applied research background
  • Autonomous Systems & Robotics – trajectory planning, decision-making, multi-agent coordination.
  • Navigation Systems – inertial navigation, image-based navigation, GPS-aided solutions.
  • Software & Simulation Tools – MATLAB/Simulink, Python, C/C++, TensorFlow, PyTorch, Model-Based Design.
  • Validation & Verification – real-time implementation, algorithm testing, and embedded systems integration.
  • Systems Thinking – modelling, systems architecture, and solving complex, multidisciplinary problems.

You should have:

  • A degree (or equivalent experience) in a subject with strong mathematical content (e.g., Aerospace, Control, Mechanical, Physics, Computer Science).
  • We also welcome recent PhD graduates with relevant research experience.
  • Strong algorithm development and problem-solving skills.
  • Good communication skills and a collaborative mindset.
