- Integrate aircraft dynamics, controls, sensors, actuators, and avionics models with real-time targets, embedded software, and hardware interfaces.
- Improve simulation performance, timing, fidelity, and reliability.
- Create automated test scripts and tools for repeatable validation.
- Collaborate with GNC, flight software, avionics, systems, and test teams to debug and validate system behavior.
- Support documentation, requirements traceability, certification, and verification activities for flight-critical systems.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
- At least 5 years of experience in simulation, controls, embedded software, or real-time test environments.
- Hands-on experience with MATLAB, Simulink, and model-based design.
- Experience with Simulink Coder or Embedded Coder.
- Understanding of aircraft dynamics, control systems, avionics, or embedded aerospace systems.
- Experience with software-in-the-loop, hardware-in-the-loop, or real-time simulation environments.
- Proficiency in C, C++, Python, or similar programming languages.
- Strong debugging skills across software, models, and hardware interfaces.
- Experience with real-time platforms such as Speedgoat, dSPACE, NI VeriStand, or OPAL-RT is preferred.
- Experience with flight controls, GNC, avionics, autonomy, aircraft systems, simulation integration, or test hardware is preferred.
- Familiarity with CAN, Ethernet, ARINC 429, MIL-STD-1553, RS-422, or serial interfaces is preferred.
- Experience with automated testing, Git, or software configuration management is preferred.
- Familiarity with DO-178C, DO-331, or DO-254 is preferred.
- Background in aircraft, UAVs, spacecraft, defense systems, or other complex aerospace platforms is preferred.
Benefits
