Automated aviation systems will enable a future where air transportation is safer, more convenient and fundamentally transformative to the way goods â and eventually people â move around the planet. We are a team of mission-driven engineers with experience across aerospace, robotics and self-driving cars working to make this future a reality. Flight Software links together the mechanical, avionics, algorithmic, and embedded worlds to actually make the airplane fly. As a Software Engineer, Test Platforms, you will develop the tooling to support the test verification processes ensuring that the aviation products we develop are safe to fly and help provide a high-fidelity training environment for our flight-test crews. As a Software Engineer Test Platforms, you will be part of the Simulation and Test Systems team. The Simulation and Test Systems team is responsible for building the infrastructure necessary to enable the development, test, and deployment of our autonomous aircraft software. You will work closely with the hardware-in-the-loop (HITL) test environments and the simulation team developing the software infrastructure that enables automated and manual tests. You will help develop and maintain essential test tools for the company, and drive verification and validation activities to ensure our product is safe, successful, and meets certification requirements.
