  • R&D
  • Tel-Aviv
  • Full-time

Description

We’re looking for a motivated Junior GNC Engineer with a solid foundation in control, estimation, and dynamics, and the energy to help shape the future of high-performance robotic systems. You’ll contribute to the development of guidance, navigation, and control (GNC) algorithms that enable our autonomous platforms to perform fast, precise, and reliable maneuvers in real-world environments.

This role is hands-on and collaborative—ideal for engineers who want to see their work move robots in the field.

Responsibilities:

  • Contribute to the development and tuning of control and navigation algorithms
  • Analyze sensor data and build robust state estimation pipelines
  • Test and validate your algorithms in lab and field environments
  • Collaborate with software, embedded, and mechatronics teams
  • Develop and debug code on Linux-based systems

Requirements

  • BSc / MSc in Mechanical or Aeronautical Engineering
  • 2 Years of experience in control systems, estimation, or dynamics
  • Experience with C/C++, Python
  • Experience working in a Linux environment
  • Collaborative mindset and the drive to learn, improve, and contribute

Why Join Us?

  • Your algorithms will run on real robots, not just simulations
  • A talented and experienced team to mentor and challenge you
  • A fast-paced, practical environment with high learning velocity
  • Opportunities to grow in autonomy, control, and real-world robotics
