Job Description

About Merlin:

Merlin is a venture backed aerospace startup building a non-human pilot to enable both reduced crew and uncrewed flight. Backed by some of the world’s leading investors, Merlin is scaling alongside our customers to begin leveraging autonomy today to solve some of aviation’s biggest challenges.

About You:

Do you enjoy hands-on testing at the cutting edge of aerospace technology? Do you enjoy fast paced problem solving? Are you self-motivated and have a critical eye for flight safety and flight test details? Do you love the idea of more widely proliferated and safer flying machines, accessible to all? If so, you might be a good fit to lead our Experimental Test Pilot position as part of our Flight Test team here at Merlin.

The Role:
  • Lead capability testing on our test aircraft working with our engineering team in supporting development of our autonomy systems by flying early and often.
  • As a lead project pilot, develop and drive the application of processes we need to prepare for, execute, and analyze our flight tests.
  • Collaborate with hardware, software, flight controls, integration, and flight operation teams to develop test plans, ensure readiness for test, and drive efficient and effective collection of the data we need to test our systems.
  • Execute flight tests as needed onsite, including assisting in building and approving test cards, verifying procedures and software via simulation, serving as test pilot, and supporting generation of analysis and deficiency reports after flight through robust flight test reports.
  • This position may require up to 50% travel.
Nice to Haves:
  • Experience using software development environments and tools such as Linux, git, and Jira.
  • Experience with flight controls product development, including testing and troubleshooting at the system level as well as at the software component level.
