Our mission is to democratize high-speed flight by making supersonic travel flexible, accessible, and sustainable. We believe that rapid, on-demand, point-to-point global mobility will become the new standard for moving people and goods across the planet. To achieve this, we are integrating our advanced airframe and engine technologies-which include DualityTM, our proprietary dual-use propulsion system-with a new flight operations model to make supersonic transport as efficient and economical as commercial air travel is today. In the near term, we are developing adaptable, high-speed systems to close aircraft performance gaps for the United States government.
WHO WE ARE:

  • Contribute to simulation and infrastructure tooling used to validate flight systems
  • Support integration of software with embedded hardware and real-time systems
  • Write clean, testable, and maintainable code, including unit and integration tests
  • Collaborate closely with mechanical, electrical, propulsion, and controls engineers to develop and refine aircraft systems
  • Debug issues across the stack, from application-level behavior down to system interfaces

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR:
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Math, or a Science discipline
  • 0-3 years of professional software development experience, including internships and research experience
  • Experience in C++, Rust, or other systems programming language
  • Proven skills in debugging, performance optimization, and unit testing
  • Ambition to work in a fast-paced environment

PERKS & BENEFITS:
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance, including Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA)
  • 401(k) program and transparent stock option plan
  • Self-managed and flexible time-off policy, including PTO, paid holidays, and sick time
  • Flexible work environment
  • Company-funded perks, including weekly team lunches and Astro Mechanica swag

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
At Astro Mechanica, we highly value in-office work to foster collaboration and strengthen our company culture. We consider working in the office five days a week an essential part of the employee's role.
