Top Engineering Jobs in Boston, MA

Lead development of autonomy capabilities for space platforms including distributed optimization, tasking/scheduling, track fusion, RPO and motion planning. Build high-performance, well-tested software, integrate on real vehicles, support deployments and testing, and research/roadmap advanced autonomy techniques for defense applications.

Lead development of space autonomy capabilities including distributed optimization, tasking/scheduling, track fusion, rendezvous/RPO, and motion/behavior planning. Build high-performance, testable software, integrate and validate on real platforms, support deployments, and mentor engineers while contributing R&D and roadmaps.

Design, implement, and deploy autonomy capabilities for space platforms including distributed optimization, tasking/scheduling, track fusion, RPO, and motion/behavior planning. Build high-performance, well-tested software modules, collaborate across perception, planning, simulation, hardware, and flight test teams, support deployments and mission log analysis, and contribute R&D and roadmaps to advance autonomy for satellites and missile defense.

Develop state estimation and navigation algorithms for autonomous systems operating in GPS-denied environments. Build production-grade C++ software for embedded Linux robotic platforms, create modeling and simulation tools, and implement comprehensive testing and validation. Collaborate on roadmap planning and agile execution while improving benchmarking and performance-analysis pipelines. The role requires professional C++ expertise, state estimation algorithm experience, sensor-fusion familiarity, and the ability to deploy reliable autonomy software.

Lead systems engineering for a next-generation unmanned aircraft system. Responsibilities include defining system architecture, behaviors, requirements, interfaces, fault responses, and traceability; integrating avionics, autonomy, propulsion, sensors, and mission systems; conducting MBSE modeling, trade studies, safety analyses, flight testing, and performance validation; and coordinating cross-functional teams, DoD stakeholders, and government partners through development and operational deployment.

Lead systems engineering for a next-generation autonomous UAS, including system architecture, requirements decomposition, behavior modeling, avionics and autonomy integration, safety analysis, trade studies, flight testing, and performance validation. Collaborate with hardware, software, propulsion, manufacturing, flight operations, DoD stakeholders, and government agencies to develop a mission-ready aircraft from clean sheet through first flight and deployment.

Deploy and integrate Shield AIs Hivemind autonomy software with customers worldwide. Provide on-site technical support, training, debugging, and documentation. Collaborate with sales and product engineering to support pre- and post-sales activities and improve autonomy products.

Integrate, characterize, calibrate, and validate multi-modal navigation sensors (IMUs, GNSS, cameras, altimeters). Develop test plans, calibration scripts, and data-processing tools; collaborate across electrical, mechanical, and software teams; support schematics, CAD, drivers, and lab-based sensor testing through production.

Lead design and prototyping of generative AI experiences for autonomy development; drive UX for Hivemind products; perform user research, collaborate with CTO and product leads, and deliver reference implementations and integrations across full-stack web and edge systems.

Drive supplier development for electronic assemblies (PCBA/SMT): audit processes, resolve manufacturing defects, perform root-cause analysis and corrective actions, enforce IPC/J-STD standards, support NPI, monitor supplier performance, and mitigate supply chain risk with frequent supplier travel.
