Senior Software Engineer - Simulation - Hybrid - Relocation Assistance Available
About The Position
As a senior member of the Software Engineering Department operating on the simulation team, you will design, develop, and test simulation software using modern programming languages and best practices for scalability and reusability. You will develop modular simulation physics components, including models for aerodynamics, actuators, payloads, and environmental effects. Collaborate with system engineers, simulation developers, and airframe designers to align software architecture with aircraft requirements. Design, implement, and optimize simulations of physical, digital, or hybrid systems based on project requirements. Leverage AI tools and machine learning techniques to enhance simulation fidelity, automate modeling processes, or analyze simulation outputs. Work closely with domain experts, engineers, data scientists, and other stakeholders to integrate simulations—and AI-enhanced features—into engineering workflows or customer solutions. Produce clear technical documentation, user guides, and maintain code repositories. Stay current with advancements in simulation technologies; propose and integrate novel approaches or tools.
Requirements
- Strong background in simulation development using MathWorks tools (MATLAB, Simulink, Simulink Coder, Simulink Real-Time etc), developing and optimizing simulation or modeling software.
- Strong background in modular design patterns and object-oriented programming using C++ or C#.
- Strong foundation in mathematics, physics, or systems modeling.
- Familiarity with fixed-wing and/or rotorcraft aerodynamics.
- Excellent modeling, software, and debugging skills.
- Experience with version control (e.g., Git) and collaborative development workflows.
- Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
- Effective communication and teamwork skills.
- 9+ years of professional experience in an engineering classification with a Bachelor's degree of Science from an accredited course of study, in engineering or computer science or Mathematics; OR 7+ years’ experience in an engineering classification with a Master's degree.
