About us
We are an aerospace startup building unmanned aircraft systems for logistics, delivery, and emerging applications. We design, build, and fly our own aircraft. Our work spans the full stack: aerodynamic design, composite structures, flight software, and ground systems.
What you'll do
- Deep protocol engineering work: designing and implementing binary telemetry and command protocols, custom message schemas, and vehicle-side integration for a real-time bidirectional data link between aircraft and ground
- Building a custom C++/Qt desktop application for mission planning
- Real-time data pipeline design: high-frequency telemetry ingestion, state machine management, and latency-sensitive command handling
- Simulation and replay tooling
- Multi-vehicle coordination interfaces, BVLOS operational tooling, and integration with the autonomy and flight control stack
Tech stack
- C++ for the core GCS application
- Qt - the existing open-source codebase is Qt-based; you will extend it significantly
- Custom binary protocol implementation
- Python for tooling, log analysis, CI scripting, and rapid prototyping of new features
- CMake; cross-platform builds targeting Linux and Windows
- Git; comfortable working in and navigating a large existing C++ codebase
Requirements
- Strong software engineering fundamentals
- Proficient in C++ and comfortable working in a large open-source
- Experience with Qt or willingness to ramp up quickly
- Comfort with low-level protocol design
- Drone or UAV experience is a bonus
- 2–5 years of strong software experience; exceptional fresh graduates with relevant project work considered
Pay and benefits
- ₹12–20 LPA (software depth and systems experience dependent)
- Housing allowance: ₹10,000–15,000/month
- Transport support (company vehicle or commute allowance)
- Health insurance: ₹5 lakh family floater
- Learning budget: ₹25,000/year
