Aerodynamics Engineer

America is critically deficient in production of defensive munitions- we currently produce shipborne interceptors in the few hundreds per year while our adversaries are producing offensive threats in the tens of thousands per year. Furientis was started to help solve this problem- introducing a new class of cost-effective, high production rate, interceptor missiles. We're seeking motivated individuals who internalize this problem and are eager to apply their past experience in similar industries (aerospace, defense, automotive/racing, robotics) and out of the box thinking to solve this problem for the US and its allies.

The GN&C Team writes the laws of motion for our weapon system, and owns the vehicle those laws apply to. We design the airframe, build the plant model the rest of the company tests against, and write the guidance, navigation, and autopilot software that takes a launched interceptor from rail to intercept. The airframe sets the kinematic ceiling, the plant model decides what is real, and the GN&C software lives or dies on the truth of both. We do not split these concerns across organizations.
