About the role

A technology firm specializing in aerospace solutions is looking for a Guidance, Navigation, and Controls Engineer. This role involves designing guidance algorithms for high-speed dynamics and implementing controls for UAVs. The ideal candidate will possess a strong background in state estimation and control theory, and must hold a B.S. or M.S. in Aerospace Engineering. Familiarity with tools like MATLAB and C++ is essential for this position, which offers a competitive salary range of $120,000 - $180,000 per year.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
