About Pyka Pyka’s goal is to provide society with a new form of safe, clean, and cost-effective transportation enabled by autonomous electric aviation.
To get there, we’re taking a different approach than most. We're applying our technologies to every industry where autonomous electric aircraft can be useful, starting with the highest value and most dangerous jobs. In doing so, we're building game-changing products manufactured at scale, while perfecting the safety, reliability, and capabilities of our autonomy engine and electric propulsion systems.
We design, develop and manufacture an ecosystem of technologies including proprietary flight control software, avionics, high power density motors, motor controllers, batteries, and custom carbon-fiber composite airframes.
Today, we supply autonomous electric aircraft for cargo transport and crop protection to real-world customers across four separate continents and have secured industry-first regulatory approvals from the FAA. Our cargo aircraft enables remote connectivity, enhances express delivery networks, and ensures fast and reliable shipping of critical supplies to areas in need. Our crop protection aircraft offers agricultural services providers and farmers an autonomous tool to make aerial application safer, more precise, and less harmful to surrounding environments. Both vehicles are highly economical to operate, easy to deploy, and significantly reduce CO2 emissions in their respective industries.
What you work on at Pyka makes people’s lives better now and brings the future of electric aviation one step closer each day.
Role Overview Pyka is looking for an Embedded Software Engineer with strong technical curiosity and a passion for building the low‑level systems that power autonomous aircraft. In this role, you’ll contribute to the embedded software that runs on our flight computers, auxiliary computers, and hardware‑in‑the‑loop (HIL) testing systems — the infrastructure that ensures our aircraft behave safely and reliably in the real world.
You’ll work across firmware, hardware bring‑up, and testing systems, taking ownership of key components while collaborating with electrical, avionics, systems, and flight control engineers. This is a hands‑on role where you’ll build and improve real‑time systems that directly impact flight performance and safety. If you’ve built embedded systems for robots, vehicles, or other real‑time machines, you’ll feel at home shaping the foundation that every Pyka aircraft depends on.
If you’re excited about this role but don’t meet every single requirement, we still encourage you to apply — we’d love to meet people who bring passion, curiosity, and the ability to grow into new challenges.
Responsibilities
Contribute to the development of embedded software for flight and auxiliary computers
Own components and features within the firmware stack, from implementation through testing and iteration
Support the development and maintenance of Pyka’s hardware‑in‑the‑loop (HIL) testing environment
Implement drivers for off‑the‑shelf and custom sensors (I²C, SPI, CAN, UART/serial, etc.)
Assist with board bring‑up and hardware integration, including debugging low‑level issues
Collaborate with cross‑disciplinary teams to define interfaces, requirements, and validation plans
Debug hardware/software interaction issues across microcontrollers, sensors, and embedded Linux systems
Collaborate with cross‑disciplinary teams to define interfaces and support system integration
Write reliable, maintainable code and contribute to improving development and testing workflows
Required Qualifications
2‑4 years of experience developing embedded software or firmware for real‑time or hardware‑integrated systems
Proficiency in C/C++ and experience with microcontrollers and embedded Linux systems
Comfortable implementing sensor and peripheral drivers (I²C, SPI, CAN, UART, ethernet)
Comfortable with git and modern collaborative software development workflows
Ability to take ownership of features and debug issues independently
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with FPGAs or HDL development
Experience with electric motor controllers or motor control firmware
Familiarity with hardware‑in‑the‑loop testing and embedded automated test frameworks
We understand that candidates bring different strengths and experiences, and you don’t need to meet every qualification to be considered. If this role excites you, we’d love to learn more about you. You may be a great fit even if your background doesn’t align perfectly with the list.
