Description

Hermeus is a venture-backed defense aviation company reclaiming the lost art of rapid iterative prototyping to build the fastest aircraft in the world today. By prioritizing relentless hardware iteration, we deliver high-speed systems at the pace of the modern battlefield. We work with the Department of War to provide the high-speed capabilities our nation and its allies need to maintain a durable, asymmetric advantage.

About The Role: 

As a GNC & Flight Software Engineering Intern, you will support the development, implementation, and testing of flight software and guidance, navigation, and control systems for uncrewed high-speed aircraft.

  • Develop software interfaces, messaging, and integrations between flight and mission subsystems
  • Analyze test data, troubleshoot system behavior, and support improvements to software and control performance
  • Collaborate across software, GNC, avionics, and vehicle engineering teams to validate integrated systems

    • Requirements:

  • Pursuing a degree in Aerospace Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field
