About the role

Systems Technology, Inc. (STI) is seeking an Embedded Software Engineer - UAS to join our Aerospace division, supporting flight software development for next-generation UAS and counter-UAS platforms. You'll work at the intersection of guidance, navigation, and control (GNC) software and the embedded hardware it runs on — writing, testing, and debugging flight-critical code for fault-tolerant flight controllers and mission systems. This is hands-on work: you'll be as comfortable on an oscilloscope bench as you are in a debugger.

What you'll bring

  • 3–5 years of professional software development experience
  • Proficiency in C and/or C++
  • Strong problem-solving, analysis, and debugging skills
  • U.S. Person status required, as defined by ITAR (22 CFR 120.15), due to the export-controlled nature of this work
  • This is an on-site position based in Hawthorne / Los Angeles, CA
  • remote or hybrid work is not available
  • Experience with UAS, UAVs, drones, or RC aircraft
  • Experience developing software for embedded systems or microcontrollers
  • Familiarity with embedded communication protocols such as CAN, SPI, I2C, UART, or PWM
  • Familiarity with Git and modern software development practices
  • Familiarity with debugging tools such as logic analyzers, digital multimeters, and oscilloscopes
