The posting

Hermeus is a venture-backed defense aviation company reclaiming the lost art of rapid iterative prototyping to build the fastest aircraft in the world today. By prioritizing relentless hardware iteration, we deliver high-speed systems at the pace of the modern battlefield. We work with the Department of War to provide the high-speed capabilities our nation and its allies need to maintain a durable, asymmetric advantage.

About The Role:

As a GNC & Flight Software Engineering Intern, you will support the development, implementation, and testing of flight software and guidance, navigation, and control systems for uncrewed high-speed aircraft. This role is a fit for candidates with either a strong software background and exposure to GNC/controls, or a strong GNC/controls background with hands-on software experience.

Spring: Around 16 weeks (January - April)

Summer: Around 12 weeks (May - August)

Responsibilities:

  • Support the development and implementation of flight software and guidance and control algorithms
  • Implement, integrate, and test control algorithms in simulation, embedded, and hardware-integrated environments
  • Assist with control law development, tuning, and validation for vehicle stability and performance
  • Develop software interfaces, messaging, and integrations between flight and mission subsystems
  • Analyze test data, troubleshoot system behavior, and support improvements to software and control performance
  • Collaborate across software, GNC, avionics, and vehicle engineering teams to validate integrated systems

Requirements:

  • Pursuing a degree in Aerospace Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field
  • Background in either software development with exposure to GNC/controls, or GNC/controls with experience implementing software
  • Experience with C++, C, Python, MATLAB/Simulink, or similar programming and engineering tools
  • Familiarity with controls, dynamics, simulation, embedded systems, or hardware/software integration
  • Hands-on experience through internships, coursework, research, or technical projects
  • Strong understanding of engineering first principles
  • Demonstrated ability to work within cross-functional teams
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • GPA of 3.0 or above

The hourly rate listed for this internship is intended as a general guideline. Final compensation will be determined based on degree level.

Benefits:

  • Time Off: Interns are eligible for 5 days of sick leave and unpaid time off.
  • Office Perks: Weekly paid office lunches and fully stocked breakrooms.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
