verifies real-time code logic in nanoseconds
You write low-level drivers and real-time kernels for flight hardware, ensuring every instruction cycle meets strict safety requirements.
The one thing AI can't do
You are the only person who understands the undocumented quirks of this specific legacy board.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Week 4
AI cleaners identify and flag standard C violations automatically.
Month 4
Machine learning agents start proposing driver structures for standard hardware.
Month 10
Mathematical models prove code safety faster than your unit tests.
Month 16
Autonomous agents map legacy registers without human developer input.
Year 2 · D-Day
The compiler now writes, verifies, and deploys the entire flight firmware.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
