Responsibilities

  • Design high-performance 6-DOF flight and physics simulations
  • Build simulation components that replicate real-world dynamics and sensor behavior
  • Integrate guidance, navigation, and control (GNC) logic into full-stack simulations
  • Develop Monte Carlo, Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL), and closed-loop test infrastructure
  • Collaborate closely with flight software, autonomy, and hardware teams to ensure simulation fidelity matches real-world constraints
  • Create tooling to support scenario authoring, data visualization, and performance analysis
  • Own simulation pipeline performance and determinism across a wide range of conditions

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related technical field
  • 7+ years of experience building simulations or numerical modeling frameworks
  • Proficient in Rust and Python for performance-critical and test-driven development
  • Understanding of rigid body dynamics, kinematics, numerical integration, and physics
  • Experience building tools for flight dynamics, aerospace simulation, or autonomous systems
  • Proficiency with compiled (e.g. C++, Rust) and scripted (e.g. Python) languages
