DevOps Engineer Flight Software

Hermeus is a venture-backed defense aviation company reclaiming the lost art of rapid iterative prototyping to build the fastest aircraft in the world today. By prioritizing relentless hardware iteration, we deliver high-speed systems at the pace of the modern battlefield. We work with the Department of War to provide the high-speed capabilities our nation and its allies need to maintain a durable, asymmetric advantage.
About The Role
We are seeking a DevOps Engineer to support the development, integration, and deployment of flight software systems. This role sits at the intersection of software engineering, infrastructure, and testing, with a strong emphasis on designing and managing Gitlab CI/CD pipelines, enabling automated Flight Test on various Cloud and HW testbeds including Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL).
Responsibilities:
  • Design, implement, and maintain scalable Gitlab CI/CD pipelines to support flight software build, test, and release workflows.
  • Develop and manage containerized environments using Docker to ensure consistency across development, simulation, and test systems.
  • Provision and manage cloud infrastructure on Amazon Web Services using Infrastructure as Code with Terraform.
  • Build and maintain automated pipelines for SIL and HIL testing, enabling continuous validation of flight software against simulated and real hardware interfaces.
  • Support Flight Test operations by developing reliable deployment, telemetry, and data collection workflows.
  • Integrate hardware test benches with CI/CD systems to enable automated regression testing and real-time feedback.
  • Optimize build systems for performance, reproducibility, and traceability across multiple flight software configurations.
  • Collaborate closely with flight software, avionics, and test engineers to streamline development and test cycles.
  • Implement monitoring, logging, and alerting solutions for both cloud and on-premise test environments.
Qualifications:
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related technical field.
  • 3+ years of experience in DevOps, software infrastructure, test automation, or platform engineering.
  • Strong experience designing, building, and maintaining GitLab CI/CD pipelines.
  • Hands-on experience with Docker and containerized development or test environments.
  • Experience provisioning and managing cloud infrastructure, preferably with AWS.
  • Familiarity with Infrastructure as Code tools such as Terraform.
  • Strong scripting or programming experience in Python, Bash, or similar languages.
  • Experience supporting build, test, release, or deployment workflows for complex software systems.
  • Ability to work closely with software, hardware, avionics, and test teams in a fast-paced engineering environment.
  • Strong debugging, troubleshooting, and communication skills.
Preferred Skills and Experience:
  • Experience supporting flight software, embedded software, robotics, aerospace, automotive, defense, or other safety-critical systems.
  • Experience with Software-in-the-Loop, Hardware-in-the-Loop, or other integrated test environments.
  • Familiarity with real-time systems, hardware test benches, avionics systems, or embedded Linux environments.
  • Experience integrating CI/CD pipelines with physical hardware, lab systems, test rigs, or automated regression test infrastructure.
  • Experience with telemetry, data collection, deployment tooling, or operational support for flight test or field test environments.
  • Knowledge of build systems, artifact management, version control, and release traceability for regulated or mission-critical software.
  • Experience implementing monitoring, logging, and alerting for cloud and on-premise infrastructure.
  • Familiarity with AWS services commonly used for compute, storage, networking, security, and automation.
  • Ability to move quickly between infrastructure design, hands-on implementation, debugging, and cross-functional support.
  • Active or previous security clearance, or ability to obtain one.
