At Merlin, we're building the AI-powered operating system that will enable aircraft to fly autonomously from takeoff to touchdown. Our team of 100+ experts in AI and certified software is translating the skills of human pilots into software that can think and adapt in real-time. We've already logged 800+ flight hours and powered five aircraft types with the Merlin Pilot, proving our technology works in the real world.
Our culture thrives on solving hard problems at the intersection of aviation safety and cutting-edge autonomy. We work collaboratively across disciplines - engineering, flight operations, regulatory affairs - to build trust with governments, regulators, and customers. With $100M+ in prime contracts from military customers and test facilities spanning Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New Zealand, we're committed to making certified autonomous flight a reality today. Our motto 'Find a way or make one' captures the spirit of innovation that drives us forward as we reshape the future of aviation.
