Engineering Structures Jobs in Cupertino, CA

We're building safety-enhancing technology for aviation that will save lives. Automated aviation systems will enable a future where air transportation is safer, more convenient and fundamentally transformative to the way goods - and eventually people - 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.

As a Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) Modeling and Simulation Engineer, you will develop the physics-based models that enable rapid iteration and certification-grade validation of GNC software. You will perform simulation analysis and assess correlation with real-world data to demonstrate that the models are representative of the actual system.

Responsibilities

• Develop physics-based models representative of aircraft dynamics (aerodynamics, ground reactions, actuator models, etc.)

• Identify, request, and analyze flight tests necessary to inform modeling

• Conduct closed-loop testing of flight control systems with simulated aircraft dynamics

• Develop tools for visualizing and analyzing simulation and flight data

• Perform validation of simulation models against flight test data

Basic Success Criteria

• BS in aerospace engineering, robotics, or related field

• 5+ years experience with aerodynamics, flight dynamics simulation, and system identification

• Experience with Python, C++, MATLAB/Simulink, and Linux-based development environments and scripting

• Experience with developing validated physics-based models as well as integration and testing of these models

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Preferred Criteria

• MS or PhD in aerospace engineering, robotics, or related field

• Experience with high fidelity physics-based aircraft or other complex simulation systems

• Current pilot, instrument or commercial ratings

GNC Modeling and Simulation is a key company capability that enables rapid design iteration and scalable design validation covering the massive combinatorial space of flight envelope and atmospheric conditions. These tools are what allow us to fly with the confidence of more than 1000:1 simulation hours to flight hours and draw statistically significant conclusions on the system's safety and performance.
