Job description

What Impact You'll Have

GRVTY is seeking a Principal Guidance, Navigation & Controls (GNC) Scientist to serve as a technical authority for autonomous vehicle GNC capabilities and advanced navigation products and software. In this role you will lead the design and analysis of navigation and control algorithms, drive technical strategy across multiple concurrent initiatives, and mentor engineers. You will address the boundary of theory and field-proven implementation, translating advanced control theory and estimation techniques into systems that perform reliably in maritime environments with limited or denied GPS.

What You'll be Owning

  • Lead the design, analysis, and validation of GNC algorithms
  • Architect navigation solutions for GPS-denied environments
  • Develop and refine vehicle dynamics models and control architectures
  • Serve as the senior technical authority on GNC matters across multiple platforms
  • Collaborate with navigation subject matter expert to transfer deep domain knowledge from decades of accumulated know-how and documented navigational principles and applied techniques
  • Define verification and validation test plans for GNC subsystems
  • Analyze field test data to diagnose performance anomalies and refine algorithms
  • Partner with all engineering disciplines to ensure GNC algorithms are implemented efficiently
  • Mentor and provide technical guidance to mid-level and junior GNC engineers
  •  

What You Must Have

  • PhD in Aerospace Engineering or a closely related field
  • Professional experience in guidance, navigation, and control system design for underwater, aerial, ground or space vehicles
  • Deep expertise in state estimation techniques (Kalman filtering, sensor fusion) and modern control theory
  • Strong proficiency in MATLAB/Simulink and software languages for algorithm development
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including experience presenting to technical and customer audiences
  • US Citizenship required

What Would be Nice to Have

  • Direct experience with underwater GNC and navigation sensors
  • Familiarity with real-time embedded software environments
  • Background supporting autonomous systems
