The Boring Company was founded to solve the problem of soul-destroying traffic by creating an underground network of tunnels. Today, we are creating the technology to increase tunneling speed and decrease costs by a factor of 10 or more with the ultimate goal of making Hyperloop adoption viable and enabling rapid transit across densely populated regions.

As a GNC Engineer, you will be responsible for pushing the technical boundaries of tunneling control systems. You will work with a talented team of accomplished engineers to develop, analyze, and test machines and subsystems for highly reliable tunneling. You should thrive in fast-paced, dynamic environments where you adapt quickly and love to solve hard problems.

-Develop innovative guidance, navigation, and control systems for Boring Company tunnel boring machines, including all future versions of Prufrock machines.

-Engage in multi-disciplinary machine investigations and design work that define the systems architecture.

-Implement new software or algorithms to enable mission unique capabilities and leading edge launch vehicle performance.

-Develop 6-DOF dynamics simulation models used for GNC systems analysis and validation.

-Analyze TBM trajectories, performance dispersions, and stability.

-Conduct post tunneling data review and correlation with analyses for continued improvement of predictions.

-Support tunneling operations of machines that you enabled.

-Perform testing of GNC software utilizing hardware-in-the-loop testing, Monte Carlo analysis, and algorithm unit testing.

-Bachelor's degree in physics or an engineering discipline

-3+ years of professional or hands-on experience in control systems, classical dynamics, sensors and actuators, modeling and simulation

-Experience with the software programming.
