Preferred:
• Background in unmanned aviation, aerospace, robotics, or defense systems.
• Experience building mission planning or ground control software.
• Familiarity with MAVLink, PX4, ROS, or similar robotics and autonomy ecosystems.
• Experience with terrain systems, simulation environments, or sensor visualization pipelines.
• Experience managing complex frontend state with MobX or similar frameworks.
