Autonomy Integration Engineer, Airborne Systems

This role involves the integration of autonomy software within the aircraft's mission system architecture. Key responsibilities include:

• Implementing autonomy-related Open Mission Systems (OMS) and Universal Command and Control Interface (UCI) services.
• Converting behavior graphs, trajectory-planning algorithms, state machines, and autonomy developer specifications into functional code, software modules, and subsystem-level requirements.
• Implementing service endpoints, publish/subscribe mechanisms, message catalogs, and data schemas for autonomy.

Responsibilities also include:

• Writing software adapters, bridges, and interface shims enabling third-party autonomy software to interoperate with mission planning systems, ground control stations, debrief/data pipelines, and VMS components.
• Implementing behavior state machines, guard conditions, transition logic, overrides, failsafes, and degraded-mode behaviors in code.
• Embedding autonomy executables, libraries, and services into Software-in-the-Loop (SITL), Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL), and large-scale simulation environments.
