• Experience building UIs with React
• Working knowledge of relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, or similar)
• Strong fundamentals: data structures, algorithms, REST APIs

Nice to Have

• Exposure to drone systems, UAV platforms, robotics, or aerospace software
• Familiarity with MAVLink or other drone communication protocols
• Experience with real-time data systems or WebSockets
• Background in embedded systems or hardware-adjacent software

What We Offer

• Competitive salary and equity
• Health, dental, and vision coverage
• The chance to work on software that controls physical systems in the field
• A small, technical team where your work ships and matters
