Engineering · Paris, France · Full-time · Senior level
The role centers on the guidance, navigation and control of a pilotless hydrogen airship. That means modeling how the craft moves, writing control laws, and turning them into working flight code. A strong candidate has about six years in GNC for drones, aerospace or cars, plus the willingness to debug sensors and flight computers on an airfield. Evidence of having shipped a flight product, and the ability to make the safety case for regulators, matter a lot.
How it fits the AI era
The company's AI handles the data side, finding defects and leaks in what the airship collects. This role sits on the other side: the control and autonomy that make each flight safe and repeatable. Simulation and flight data analysis speed up tuning, but proving the system behaves safely in degraded conditions still needs human engineering judgment and accountability to regulators.
How it builds AI experience
The work gives close exposure to autonomous flight, where software has to be trusted without a pilot on board. Being next to a team that turns LiDAR, imagery and methane data into automated defect detection shows how flight design affects data quality. Someone building skills here could study how flight paths and stability influence the data an inspection AI receives.
Worth showing
- C/C++ flight software
- Shipped GNC product heritage
- PX4 and MAVLink experience
- Field flight test debugging
