- Develop mathematical modeling and six-DOF simulation of flight vehicle dynamics
- Perform navigation and control system analysis and optimization, perform simulation development and validation
- Execute flight data analysis, develop documentation of all facets of work performed, develop flight test plans, and provide flight test support
- Troubleshoot navigation and flight control anomalies via flight data analysis, correlation with flight software operation and generating corrective actions
- Deep knowledge of flight control and navigation sensor systems, and perform analysis in connection with these systems
- Create and review Certification Plans, Qualification Test Procedures and Qualification Test Reports
- Review qualification by similarity and/or analysis reports
- Review system safety documents (PSSA, SFHA, AFHA, SSA and Particular Risk Analysis)
- Create, review and approve ground test procedures, flight test procedures and their corresponding test reports.
FLIGHT TESTING:
- Determine test specification definition
- Discuss, write and review test plans and preparation activities with the engineering team
- Prepare and review pre- and post-flight briefings
- Monitor live flight data, typically via telemetry, during flight test on aircraft
- Identify non-conformities, quality escapes, etc. to create rejection tags
- Make assessments to ensure safety of flight determination
- Write flight test results reports.
FLIGHT SCIENCES:
- Expertise in area of stability & control and aircraft handling characteristics
- Support, plan, execute and analyze Wind Tunnel Activities.
- Minimum 5 years of work experience as a Flight Control Engineer
- Proficient in software such as C++, MATLAB, Python
- Hands-on experience applying classical and modern control theory to an autonomous system
- Extensive knowledge of aircraft flight testing
- High proficiency in aerodynamics, aircraft performance and flight controls
- Proficiency in 3D cut software, Solidworks and Siemens NX
- Bachelor’s degree in Aeronautical, Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering
