Career · Prague
Build something that flies.
More than fifteen aircraft in under a decade, designed, built, and flown in-house. The most important one is on the ground right now, waiting for you.
The place
One roof, every discipline.
Zuri builds hybrid-electric aircraft: the uncrewed cargo VTOL first, a certified six-seat passenger aircraft after it, and one architecture under all of it, proven by TD 2.0, now in ground test. Design, electronics, manufacturing, and flight test share one building near Prague. You will see your work fly within months, not careers.
Open positions
The work, open now.
Embedded software developer, medior/senior
We are looking for enthusiastic Embedded Software Developers who are excited by the opportunity to help develop Zuri, a hybrid VTOL aircraft. If you are not afraid of demanding technological challenges and have a passion for learning new things, we want to hear from you. Previous experience in aviation is not a requirement; we are happy to teach you everything you need to know.
As part of our Electrical Development Team, you will:
- Develop control firmware for in-house designed hardware used in avionic applications.
- Create firmware for testers and support tools used to validate our electronics.
- Define specifications, bring up prototypes, and troubleshoot bugs in close collaboration with our HW developers.
- Analyze firmware performance on real hardware, including debugging and optimization.
What we expect from you:
- Proficiency in C for bare-metal source code development.
- Hands-on experience with STM32 microcontrollers.
- Familiarity with standard peripherals (SPI, UART, CAN).
- Ability to read electrical schematics and work with component datasheets.
- Experience with lab equipment (multimeters, oscilloscopes).
Great to have (Bonus points):
- Experience designing reliable or safety-critical embedded systems.
- Knowledge of a high-level language for support applications (ideally C#).
- Understanding of electronics at a schematic validation and HW debugging level.
- Experience with Git version control.
- Experience with MISRA coding standards.
Language Requirements:
Czech: Intermediate.
English: Intermediate (reading datasheets, communication with suppliers).

Who we work with →Frequently asked questions
About working here.
Where is the job based?
At the Prague facility, in one building where design, electronics, manufacturing and flight test all sit together. That is the point of the place: a change can be drawn, made and tested by the same people in the same week, rather than crossing a supplier boundary and coming back a month later.
What would I actually be working on?
Technology Demonstrator 2.0, which is in systems integration and ground test now, with first flight planned for Q2 2027. After that the flight-test campaign expands the envelope from hover through transition to cruise, and what it proves becomes the uncrewed cargo aircraft. More than fifteen aircraft have flown here since 2018, so work reaches the air in months rather than careers.
How do I apply, and what should I send?
Use the form on the open position above: your name, an email, a few words about yourself, and a CV in whatever format you already have. There is no account to create and no portal. Every application gets a reply. If you would rather write directly, the address is jobs@zuri.com.
What if none of the open roles fit me?
Write anyway and say what you would build. The open list reflects what is most urgent this month, not the whole of what a small aircraft company needs, and speculative applications are read by the same people who read the rest. Use the form at the foot of the positions, or jobs@zuri.com.
