Job description

As a GNC Engineer at Auterion, you will work on the guidance, navigation and control capabilities that enable autonomous platforms to operate reliably in complex real-world environments. You will support the development, integration, tuning and validation of flight control, navigation, estimation, guidance and terminal behaviour across Auterion-enabled systems. This role combines strong analytical foundations with practical field engineering. You will work across PX4/APX4, sensor fusion, control laws, onboard autonomy, visual navigation, payload-driven guidance and simulation environments. You will help ensure that Auterion systems can fly, navigate and execute missions safely and effectively. Responsibilities and Duties: - Develop, integrate and tune guidance, navigation and control (GNC) behaviours for autonomous platforms using PX4/Auterion-based systems. - Configure and validate state estimation and sensor fusion across GNSS, IMU, visual navigation and other onboard sensors. - Analyse and validate vehicle stability, navigation accuracy and mission performance using simulation, SIL/HIL and flight test data. - Develop and evaluate guidance, control and degraded-navigation behavio...
