We’re adding another Software Tester to the X-Plane team. You’d work across both our desktop and mobile simulators. We need someone with deep hands-on X-Plane knowledge. Formal testing experience is a plus but not required – we’ll teach you the rest.

Why Work for Laminar Research?

  • Your work ships to thousands of users, including real-world pilots and companies across the aviation industry
  • Set your own schedule – the team spans many time zones, so we don’t keep fixed hours
  • Work from anywhere! No commute, no cubicles, nothing between you and good work
  • Small, tight-knit team. No shareholders, no bureaucracy, and everyone here visibly moves the product

Skills and Qualifications

  • Deep hands-on experience with X-Plane 12
  • Excellent communication skills in English
  • Detail-oriented – in testing, attention to small details is essential
  • A real passion for aviation (we’re all aviation nerds)
  • Comfortable across Windows, macOS, and Linux
  • Some Git and Python knowledge
  • Basic Android and iOS experience
