Lorimer Inc. is hiring: UX Engineer in Los Angeles
Lorimer Inc., Los Angeles, CA, United States, 90079
About Us
Moonware is building the future of airside operations. We’re creating an integrated ecosystem of AI software and smart vehicles that connect ground crew, vehicles and aircraft to efficiently service flights. With our advanced technologies, we are transforming aviation ground operations across the passenger, cargo, defense, and advanced air mobility sectors.
Moonware was founded on the belief that multimodal air transportation will become the prime mover of people and goods in the 21st century. To support this shift, airports and the hubs connecting these transport modes must transform to meet the demands of modern air travel. While aircraft technology continues to advance rapidly, the infrastructure and ground operations needed to enable these next-generation aerial ecosystems remain largely outdated. Moonware is closing this gap by creating the ecosystem for automated airfields to support the next era of travel.
Our flagship product, HALO, is the world’s first Ground Traffic Control platform powered by AI. The platform is designed to streamline aircraft turnaround management, seamlessly coordinating ramp crew and ground support equipment to service flights on time. It drives significant operational improvements for teams, resulting in faster turnarounds, reduced block times, fewer delays, increased flight throughput, and maximized asset utilization. The modernization HALO brings to ground operations is what we see as building the bridge to airfield autonomy.
We are a team of builders from top Silicon Valley tech companies, combining our expertise in aerospace and software to drive innovation in an industry often slow to evolve. As we push forward, the Moonware ecosystem will continue to expand, unlocking new possibilities and shaping the future of travel.
