About Sarla Aviation:

Sarla Aviation is not just an aerospace startup; we are pioneers in the sky, dedicated to revolutionizing urban air mobility with our innovative Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft. Join us in our quest to transform the future of flight, driven by a relentless passion for sustainable transportation solutions.

As part of our team, you will not just take on challenges — you will push the boundaries of engineering, technology, and customer experience, working on systems that have never been built before.

About the Role:

We are seeking an experienced and highly skilled Senior Embedded Software Engineer to join our dynamic engineering team. This role focuses on the design, development, optimization, and certification of embedded and safety-critical software for avionics, flight controllers, and autopilot systems.

You will play a key role in building reliable, real-time embedded software for autonomous and semi-autonomous aerospace systems, working closely with cross-functional teams across hardware, controls, and systems engineering.

Responsibilities:

  • Develop, maintain, and optimize embedded software for flight controllers, avionics, and autopilot systems.
  • Design and implement low-level drivers, bootloaders, and embedded applications for microcontrollers (e.g., ARM Cortex series).
  • Lead and contribute to the development of safety-critical embedded software aligned with aerospace standards.
  • Integrate MATLAB/Simulink-generated control and navigation algorithms into embedded platforms.
  • Implement sensor fusion, guidance, navigation, and control logic.
  • Integrate and interface with avionics hardware including IMUs, GPS, magnetometers, barometers, airspeed sensors, and other flight-critical sensors.
  • Write efficient, reliable, and real-time C/C++ code with a strong focus on safety, performance, and determinism.
  • Perform software debugging, unit testing, Software-in-the-Loop (SIL), integration testing, and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) validation.
  • Support certification activities, including documentation, reviews, and audits related to DO-178C compliance.
  • Collaborate closely with hardware, systems, and controls engineers for system-level integration and troubleshooting.
  • Participate in system architecture design, code reviews, and continuous improvement of software processes.
  • Mentor junior engineers and contribute to best practices within the embedded software team.
  • Stay current with advancements in avionics, UAV technologies, and embedded systems.

Requirements:

Must-Have Skills

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Aerospace Engineering, Robotics, or a related field.
  • 6–7 years of experience in embedded software development, preferably in avionics or safety-critical systems.
  • Strong fundamentals in embedded systems, including low-level driver and application development.
  • Proficiency in C/C++ for real-time embedded platforms.
  • Hands-on experience with flight controllers, autopilot systems, or UAV firmware (e.g., PX4, ArduPilot, or custom flight stacks).
  • Experience with avionics and embedded communication protocols: CAN, UART, SPI, I2C.
  • Exposure to ARINC 429 and/or ARINC 664 is a strong plus.
  • Solid understanding of RTOS, embedded debugging tools, and real-time constraints.
  • Direct experience with DO-178C (DAL A–C) compliance, including participation in certification activities and audits.
  • Familiarity with SIL and HIL testing methodologies.
  • Experience with sensor integration and data processing (IMU, GPS, magnetometer, barometer).
  • Good understanding of control systems, navigation, and flight dynamics.
  • Proficiency with version control systems such as Git.

Nice-to-Have Skills

  • Experience with MISRA-C and other safety coding standards.
  • Knowledge of scripting languages such as Python or Bash for automation and testing.
  • Experience with MATLAB/Simulink for system modeling and algorithm development.
  • Exposure to hardware design, bring-up, and debugging.
  • Prior experience in aerospace, UAVs, or autonomous systems.

Key Attributes:

  • Strong problem-solving and analytical skills with high attention to detail.
  • Ability to work independently and lead complex technical tasks.
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills across multidisciplinary teams.
  • Passion for aerospace, autonomy, and building mission-critical systems.

Benefits:

  • Opportunities for professional growth, learning, and leadership.
  • Work on cutting-edge aerospace and UAV technologies.
  • Flexible work hours and a supportive, high-impact team environment.
  • Competitive compensation with growth opportunities in a rapidly evolving industry.

Why Join Us:

Be a part of a world-class team in an environment where your work directly contributes to shaping the future of urban air mobility.

Thrive in our culture of diversity, inclusion, and innovation, where your unique perspectives and ideas are valued.

Enjoy a competitive compensation package, with opportunities for growth and development in a rapidly evolving industry.
