About the company:

We’ve spent more than a decade developing and testing an all-electric aircraft that will help us achieve our vision of saving a billion people an hour every day, while helping to protect our precious planet.
Designed to take off and land vertically, our aircraft will travel 150+ miles on a single charge, allowing a pilot and four passengers to leapfrog over the congestion below, emissions-free.
Our aircraft is quiet when it takes off and is nearly silent in flight, opening up unprecedented opportunities for traveling in both congested cities and under-served rural communities.
With more than 1000 test flights behind us, we’re planning to start commercial passenger flights in 2024.
Our team is made up of around 1000 awesome people, with offices in Santa Cruz, San Carlos and Marina, California, as well as Washington D.C. and Munich, Germany.

This role will require a deep understanding of complex embedded systems, firmware, state machines, FPGA integration, high-power electronics, and more to design a robust, reliable, and safe motor control system. On this project you will be responsible for designing and implementing motor inverter embedded software, communicating with systems engineers on aircraft level effects, assisting in software requirements authoring, and working with the motor controls and algorithms team as well as much more.
