TYTAN Technologies

TYTAN is a young deep-tech defense startup that develops a cost-effective counter-drone solution to protect people and critical infrastructure. We are an international team of ambitious engineers who combine expertise in autonomous systems and UAV design.

We are looking for a Senior GNC Engineer to design, implement, and validate guidance, navigation, and control systems for advanced UAV platforms. You will work across fixed-wing and VTOL aircraft, and take full ownership of GNC systems from simulation to flight.
This role is hands-on, deployment-focused, and close to the aircraft. You will write production code, help building simulation frameworks, and validate system performance through real-world flight testing. You will act as a technical sparring partner within the GNC domain, contributing experience, pragmatism, and sound engineering judgment.

Your roadmap to make an impact

Own the end-to-end GNC lifecycle for advanced fixed-wing and VTOL UAV platforms, from early concept to operational flight
Take guidance, navigation, and control systems from simulation into real aircraft, ensuring robust sim-to-real transfer
Lead and execute hands-on flight testing, including tuning, validation, and post-flight analysis
Drive GNC system quality through iterative improvement based on flight data and operational feedback
Shape autonomous behavior by defining and refining flight modes, transitions, and failure handling
Act as a technical sparring partner within the GNC domain, contributing experience-based judgment to key decisions
Collaborate closely with airframe, avionics, and software teams to ensure system-level coherence
Establish and maintain clear documentation of assumptions, architectures, and validation results

Who you are

Several years of hands-on experience developing GNC systems for fixed-wing and VTOL UAVs ideally in a project.
Proven exposure to real-world UAV deployments and operations, beyond simulation or academic work. Hands-on flight testing experience is required; holding a private pilot license is a strong advantage.
Strong foundation in flight dynamics, guidance, navigation, and control
Proven ability to implement GNC software in C++ and Python, with practical experience using ROS2 and PX4
Experience designing and operating state machines for autonomous flight and mission logic
Experience building and maintaining simulation frameworks, including multi-airframe
A pragmatic, experience-driven mindset — strong judgment matters more than perfect theory
