Remote Statistical Programmer Jobs in Marietta, GA

As Flock scales our Drone as a First Responder solutions across complex outdoor environments, maintaining uninterrupted high-definition video streaming and low-latency telemetry data paths is essential to real-time operations. Expanding our connectivity architecture across non-line-of-sight terrestrial and aerial systems requires software engineers who can integrate physical radio hardware into embedded stacks. You will write software across Linux user space and driver layers, evaluate link statistics, and optimize wireless communication for our autonomous fleets.

• Integrate off-the-shelf and custom radio hardware into our drone connectivity architecture across Wi-Fi and cellular stacks.

• Write, test, and maintain software routines across the Linux user space and driver layers using C, C++, and Python.

• Develop automated routines to extract, log, and analyze wireless link performance metrics such as RSSI, SNR, and packet loss.

• Collaborate with cross-functional RF, embedded systems, and cloud teams to design rate adaptation algorithms for dynamic flight environments.

• Run flight data analyses and perform hardware-in-the-loop testing in connectivity labs to validate real-world aerial performance.

• This isn't an RF hardware board design role, you'll collaborate closely with RF engineers, but your focus is writing software, drivers, and user-space code.

• This is not a purely theoretical research position, you will work hands-on with physical radios, embedded systems, and real aircraft flight data in our testing lab.

• This isn't a siloed backend job, you'll contribute across the full connectivity stack spanning embedded firmware, user-space tools, and cloud logging pipelines.

• Solid foundational programming skills in C, C++, and Python alongside basic software development tooling like Git and debugging utilities.

• Demonstrated capability in Linux environments and a technical understanding of networking concepts or embedded systems.

• Practical exposure to wireless communications, networking, or microcontrollers through academic coursework, student design teams, research labs, or personal projects.

• Communication skills and a strong drive to learn from senior engineers while building complex autonomous technology.

• A bachelor's or master's degree in computer science, computer engineering, electrical engineering, aerospace engineering, or a related technical field.

• Experience with wireless standards like 802.11 or 5G, single-board computers, SDRs, or robotics design teams is a plus.

In this role, you'll receive a starting salary between $100,000 and $160,000 as well as Flock Stock Options. Base salary is determined by job-related experience, education/training, as well as market indicators. Your recruiter will discuss this in depth with you during our first chat.

Every community deserves to be safe. Flock builds the technology that makes that real: last year we supported over 1 million criminal investigations and helped locate more than 10,000 missing people. We're 1,700 people building the impossible with over $1B in funding, and the expectations are high on purpose. If you want a role where the stakes are real and the pace matches, this is it.

📍Some problems get solved faster in the same room, so we prioritize candidates in Atlanta and Boston. Hub-based roles mean real in-person time with your coworkers. Remote roles exist, and when a posting is open to remote work, it says so.
