Forward Deployed Engineer building AI - based ERP automation solutions for enterprise clients. Engaging with users to deliver tailored solutions rapidly.
About the role
- GNC Engineer developing guidance, navigation, and control algorithms for UAVs at Destinus. Collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure performance of aerospace systems in critical scenarios.
Responsibilities
- Drive the development of GNC algorithms, including guidance laws, navigation filters, and control architectures with a high level of autonomy.
- Develop, maintain, and extend GNC software solutions for safety-critical applications, from early prototyping through to flight-ready implementation.
- Implement and refine GNC models and algorithms, including inertial navigation, target tracking, autopilot control loops, seeker processing, and environmental compensation.
- Build and integrate simulation and test utilities to support SIL and HIL test configurations, enabling rigorous validation of GNC functionality across integration levels.
- Define, decompose, and manage GNC-specific system and software requirements, ensuring full traceability from concept through verification.
- Generate clear, structured, and technically rigorous documentation, covering algorithm design, modelling assumptions, validation results, and verification evidence.
- Work cross-functionally with Systems Engineering, Simulation & Modelling, Flight Dynamics, Software, and Hardware teams to ensure GNC algorithm performance and alignment with overall system needs.
- Participate in design and technical reviews, presenting GNC methodologies, performance outcomes, and known limitations.
- Support Simulation-Modelling and Software teams by providing algorithm specifications, interface definitions, and GNC validation scenarios.
- Actively contribute to continuous improvement of internal GNC capabilities, tool chains, and algorithm development workflows.
Requirements
- MSc in Aerospace Engineering, Automation & Control Engineering, or a related field.
- 3-5 years of experience as GNC Engineer on flying systems (UAVs, rockets, missiles).
- Proven experience with GNC algorithm development.
- Proven coding experience, preferred: Python, Rust or C/C++.
- Experience with SIL and HIL simulations and verification processes.
- Strong technical writing skills and experience producing advanced engineering documentation.
- Ability to work collaboratively in multidisciplinary teams and communicate complex technical topics clearly.
- Proactive attitude, good problem-solving skills, and willingness to take ownership of GNC tasks and development.
- Fluency in English is a must.
