Description
Hermeus is an aerospace and defense technology company founded to radically accelerate air travel by delivering hypersonic aircraft. The company aims to develop hypersonic aircraft quickly and cost-effectively by integrating hardware-rich, iterative development with modern computing and autonomy. This approach has been validated through design, build, and test of the company’s first combined turbojet-ramjet engine and is now being scaled through its first flight vehicle program, Quarterhorse. Hermeus is also developing Darkhorse — an uncrewed hypersonic aircraft designed to deliver unique asymmetric capabilities to the warfighter.
The Navigation and System Integration GNC Engineer will be responsible for:
1) Integration, testing, validation and verification of Navigation instrumentation and GNSS components
2) Supporting the Navigation SW suite and development efforts (including filtering and fusion) on advanced guidance, navigation and control systems for our aircraft, as needed.
The successful candidate will work closely with our team of engineers and stakeholders to ensure that our aircraft meets safety, performance and efficiency standards. The NavigationGNC Engineer will also be involved in all related Navigation instrumentation & sensors suite activities to evaluate the performance of the aircraft and optimize its design.
Note: This position is open to both Senior Engineers and Level II Engineers. All candidates will be evaluated and placed into the appropriate level based on their experience and qualifications. Our goal is to capture a broad range of excellent candidates and match them with roles that best fit their career stage and skill set.
Responsibilities:
- Actively support and take participation in all Navigation, GNSS, INS/IMU, Localization, Fusion, System integration efforts
- Actively support Navigation/GNSS/Localization modeling & integration needs for high-fidelity simulation platform
- Conduct simulation studies to assess the performance of the Navigation suite in aircraft and optimize its design
- Communicate and collaborate very closely with cross-functional teams on Navigation model integration, sub-system integration and Nav. Suite simulation testing/verification capabilities.
- Running and conducting Monte Carlo simulations (with Navigation emphasis), as well as SITL, HITLS, regression testing and test coverage scenarios.
- Design and develop navigation, sensor fusion and/or blending algorithms for our aircraft using advanced techniques and tools
- Develop and implement different filtering techniques/algorithms and strategies to ensure safe and efficient flight instrumentation+operations
- Conduct flight testing to validate and refine the performance of the aircraft's Navigation systems
- Collaborate with other engineering teams to ensure that the aircraft meets safety, performance and efficiency standards from Navigation suite perspective
- Participate in the development of system-level requirements and specifications
- Prepare technical reports, presentations and documentation related to Navigation and instrumentation activities
Qualifications:
- Bachelor's with 5+years of experience, Master's + 3years of experience, or PhD 1-2years of experience in Aerospace, Electrical, Mechanical or related Engineering field
- Strong understanding of Navigation, GNSS, INS/IMU systems as well as filtering, fusion and Navigation sensor suite
- Experience with Navigation sensor trade studies, selection process,sensor models, Nav. sub-systems, Nav. SW system integration, fusion/blending algorithms and strategies.
- Experience and practical experience with filtering techniques (including KF, UKF, EKF, Particle filters…etc).
- Familiarity and experience with Navigation needs for autonomous flight systems andautonomy
- Proficiency in MATLAB, Python, familiarity with Julia, and other modeling and simulation tools
- Experience with Navigation sensor testing and data analysis.
- Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills
- Strong communication and teamwork skills
- Passion for aviation and the development of advanced aircraft technologies

Frequently Asked Questions
- We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
- Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
- The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
- Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
- We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
- We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
- From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
- We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
- If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
- EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
