Jobs at Zone 5 Technologies

Leads enterprise quality strategy, QMS development, regulatory and contractual compliance, product and manufacturing quality, supplier quality, audits, corrective actions, and multi-site quality teams. Oversees aerospace product conformity, acceptance, safety, airworthiness, production ramp-up, facility integration, and customer or government quality relationships across domestic and international operations. The role has authority to stop production or shipment when requirements are compromised and requires frequent travel.

The AI Assisted Software Engineer will design and develop enterprise software solutions, utilizing AI-assisted tools, and architect scalable systems while collaborating across teams to improve business operations.

Lead design, development, and optimization of guidance, navigation, and control systems for Group 1-4 UAS. Architect flight control software, develop Matlab/Simulink models, run SWIL/HWIL simulations, perform stability and controls analysis, mentor junior engineers, drive cross-disciplinary collaboration, and lead flight test R&D from concept to deployment.

Design, analyze, and build flight controls software for Group 1-4 UAS. Develop and modify avionics software, run SW/HW-in-the-loop simulations, generate auto-code, design ground tests, support integration and flight test, and perform controls analysis and peer reviews.

Provide high-trust executive support to the Vice President by managing complex calendars, meetings, travel, and communications. Prepare executive materials, track action items, coordinate cross-functional activities, support onboarding and board/investor materials, and maintain confidential executive files. Improve operating cadence and support company events and leadership programs in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment.

The Platform Engineer will design and implement scalable compute infrastructure for autonomous vehicle simulation, utilizing cloud platforms and on-premises clusters, along with managing CI/CD pipelines and monitoring systems.

Develop and maintain PX4 autopilot firmware for UAVs, integrating sensors and payloads, and managing testing environments. Collaborate on flight operations and system integration.

As an Embedded Software Engineer, you will design and implement software for unmanned aircraft systems, debug issues, collaborate with engineering teams, and maintain high software quality standards.

The job involves building responsive web dashboards, advanced data visualizations, and analytics tools for unmanned aircraft systems, requiring a deep understanding of UI/UX design and data presentation.

Design, analyze, and test propulsion systems (primarily solid, with liquid/hybrid as needed) across the product lifecycle. Perform internal ballistics, structural and thermal analysis, develop propulsion performance models, support static/hot-fire and flight tests, integrate propulsion with airframe and avionics, advise on hardware fundamentals and producibility, and contribute to propulsion design standards and design reviews.

The DevOps Engineer III enhances software infrastructure for unmanned aircraft systems, focusing on backend integrations, frontend development, CI/CD pipelines, and system monitoring, collaborating with engineering teams.

Lead architecture and implementation of software for autonomous UAS systems; mentor engineers; ensure compliance with aerospace standards; optimize CI/CD pipelines.

Develop high-reliability software for safety-critical applications in UAS technology. Collaborate with teams, maintain solutions, and automate processes.

The Senior System Safety Engineer leads safety activities, conducts hazard analysis, engages with customers, and ensures compliance with safety standards in unmanned aircraft systems.

Lead perception technical efforts for UAS programs: design target detection/tracking and nonlinear state estimators, architect multi-sensor world modeling, integrate ROS2/DDS interfaces, optimize real-time C++ embedded deployments, and mentor engineers while contributing reusable platform components.

Build and productionize LLM-powered tools, RAG systems, and agentic workflows. Deploy and operate AI infrastructure on Kubernetes, manage model serving and vector stores, integrate identity and access controls, automate CI/CD and data pipelines, and establish evaluation and observability for deployed services in a defense-oriented environment.

Develop high-fidelity RGB and LWIR camera models and synthetic-data pipelines in Unreal Engine, stream sensor outputs to ROS 2, implement noise/artifacts and target injection, manage 3D asset pipelines, and optimize headless/real-time simulation for perception and Target State Estimation testing and CI/CD integration.
