Sky Mavis
As a
GN
&
C Systems
Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in the development of cutting-edge autonomous navigation and control systems for our lunar rovers. Working at the intersection of autonomy, robotics, and space exploration,
you will
aid in the
definition
, d
ocumentation
,
and V&V throughout the entire lifecycle
of
sophisticated software solutions that enable our rovers to operate independently on the lunar
surface.
Your work will not only contribute to groundbreaking missions but also to technologies that have the potential to benefit humanity on Earth. Collaborating with cross-disciplinary engineering teams, you'll bring your expertise to solve complex challenges and drive the innovation needed to explore new frontiers.
