What you'll be doing
As a founding engineer and Chief of AI and Computer Vision you will be the architect of our intelligence. Your dual mandate: architect the computer vision and perception systems that guide our aircraft, and deploy the generative intelligence that allows our small team to outpace giants.
Specifically:
Detect & Avoid - you will own the computer vision and sensor fusion stack for our aircraft, ultimately developing our intelligent (AI) autopilot.
AI force multiplier - you will mastermind the deployment of generative and agentic AI apps within our team to supercharge our engineering and operational progress.
Our vehicle is not just an aircraft - it is a complex robotic system integrating multiple sensors and processors, and executing multiple functions. Leveraging AI in all areas is critical to effective progress with a small team.
A small and focussed team has been developing our prototype aircraft for technical demonstrations and seed fundraising. Now in receipt of significant grant funding, Flyer is expanding the founding engineering team with critical roles.
You will join onsite, working directly with the founder and the expanding team to take Flyer from technical startup to global phenomenon over the next five years.
