Fly-by-wire OS and aircraft control systems for civil and defense aviation
Skyryse builds SkyOS, a proprietary operating system and control architecture for aircraft, paired with their first production airframe, Skyryse One. The tech stack—CUDA, Vulkan, OpenGL, MATLAB/Simulink, ANSYS, and fly-by-wire certification tooling—reflects a hardware-embedded systems company with deep simulation and structural analysis capabilities. Current hiring is skewed toward senior and lead engineering roles, while projects cluster around defense commercialization, safety-critical systems certification, and platform architecture, indicating a pivot from civil aviation toward government contracts.
Skyryse is a Los Angeles-based aviation hardware and software company founded in 2016. The company develops SkyOS, a universal flight operating system designed to simplify aircraft management across normal operations, adverse weather, and emergency scenarios. Their first aircraft, Skyryse One, serves as the platform demonstration. The organization operates across engineering, sales, operations, and government affairs, with active hiring concentrated in technical and defense-commercialization roles. Current projects span fly-by-wire certification, early customer adoption pilots, and the establishment of an open-architecture platform strategy targeting defense and civil customers.
SkyOS, a universal operating system for aircraft control and flight management, deployed on their airframe Skyryse One. The system simplifies pilot workload during standard, adverse, and emergency flight conditions.
MATLAB, Simulink, ANSYS, NASTRAN, Patran, and FEMAP for structural analysis and flight dynamics; Vulkan and OpenGL for visualization; CUDA and OpenCL for computational acceleration; SolidWorks Composer for technical documentation.
