Kitty Hawk | Mountain View, CA | ONSITE | Haskell Software Engineer
Kitty Hawk is a Silicon Valley technology company dedicated to moving people more quickly and efficiently through personal flight. Our engineers, scientists, hackers, and creatives have invented and innovated technical and regulatory solutions for self driving cars, human powered helicopters, revolutionary wind power vehicles, and other world record-setting aviation achievements. We break stuff, in a good way, because we're here to get things done and help humanity push forward. Join us, let's have some fun.
Kitty Hawk’s R&amp;D team is currently flight-testing a variety of aircraft with autopilots written in Haskell and code-generated to C. Our simulation environment, ground station, and optimization code are written in Haskell, and all components are either currently open source or will be released once they stabilize.
We are looking for a software-engineering focused person with experience or interest in simulation of dynamic systems, control systems, robotics, aerospace, or estimation. Your initial responsibility will be helping to maintain and expand the simulation and control environment. We are a small team which designs/builds/tests/flies in rapid iteration, so you’ll be energetic, adaptable, independent, and a fast learner who can make sound engineering judgments with limited information.
