#### TYTAN Technologies At TYTAN , we aim to set a global standard in autonomous air defense with AI-driven, cost-efficient systems that counter unmanned aerial threats at scale. We protect people. We protect critical infrastructure. We protect European sovereignty. Now, we are looking for a 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 support the GNC team with 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. #### 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 ## Requirements #### * Several years of hands-on experience developing GNC systems for fixed-wing and or 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 foundatio
