Build the Digital Foundation of Trust
We aren't just writing code; we're building the digital foundation for our aircraft. We are seeking a master builder—a Software Architect who can design the blueprint for our entire safety-critical software stack. You will be responsible for every layer, from the bare metal to the application, ensuring performance, partitioning, and absolute reliability for our advanced avionics, flight control, and autonomous navigation systems. If you have architected real-time systems from scratch and understand the demands of a safety-critical world, this role is for you.

About The ePlane Company
The ePlane Company is at the forefront of India's urban air mobility revolution. Incubated at IIT Madras, we are a deep-tech startup dedicated to designing and building the world's most compact electric flying taxi. Our mission is to make door-to-door flying a reality, drastically reducing commute times and decongesting our cities for a cleaner, greener future. We're a passionate team of engineers, designers, and visionaries working on cutting-edge technology,



and we're looking for brilliant minds to help us take flight.

Roles and Responsibilities
As the Software Architect for Safety-Critical Systems, you will be the technical authority for our embedded software foundation. You will:
Define the Architecture: Design and document the high-level software architecture from the ground up for our safety-critical systems, including the Flight Control Computer (FCC), advanced avionics (similar to ADAS), and autonomous navigation suite.
Establish Foundational Layers: Establish the core software framework, defining memory maps, partitioning strategies (time and space), and real-time scheduling models.
Author Software Requirements: Write transparent, verifiable, and accurate low-level software requirements based on system-level specifications.
Set the Standard: Create, enforce, and champion strict coding standards (MISRA C/C++) and software development proc
