Avionics Engineer - Mission Systems

Hermeus is a venture-backed defense aviation company reclaiming the lost art of rapid iterative prototyping to build the fastest aircraft in the world today. By prioritizing relentless hardware iteration, we deliver high-speed systems at the pace of the modern battlefield. We work with the Department of War to provide the high-speed capabilities our nation and its allies need to maintain a durable, asymmetric advantage. The Mission Systems Engineering Team develops the architecture, interfaces, and hardware/software integration that enable Hermeus aircraft to execute missions. As an Avionics Engineer on this team, you will design, integrate, and validate avionics components and mission hardware that interface with the Mission Management System (MMS) platform. You will work at the boundary between airborne hardware, mission subsystems, and command-and-control infrastructure—ensuring that third-party sensors, communication devices, autonomy modules, and onboard systems integrate into a coherent mission capability.
