We're building safety-enhancing technology for aviation that will save lives. Automated aviation systems will enable a future where air transportation is safer, more convenient and fundamentally transformative to the way goods — and eventually people — move around the planet. We are a team of mission-driven engineers with experience across aerospace, robotics and self-driving cars working to make this future a reality.

The Communications Team is a small group of highly motivated engineers developing industry leading communications systems that enable remote operations of FAA certified commercial aircraft. As a Senior Communications Systems Engineer at Reliable Robotics, you will be a key member of the Communications Team developing the reliable and cost-efficient data link systems required to safely operate aircraft around the world from a remote control center; this system unlocks cargo logistics constraints by untethering the pilot from the aircraft.

Responsibilities

In your role as Senior Communications Systems Engineer you will design robust digital communication links that provide voice and data services for unmanned aircraft systems. You will analyze, develop, and implement creative solutions including satellite and terrestrial-based radio frequency communication networks to allow aircraft to be operated reliably within the U.S. National Airspace. You will drive the communication system architecture from cradle to grave. Duties will include creating models and simulations of RF links and networks, working with network providers to negotiate and validate service level agreements, and testing communications equipment on the ground and in-flight. In this role you will be instrumental in establishing the technologies, internal processes, and business relationships that facilitate a new generation of communication for autonomy in civil aviation.
