Simulation Engineer

You will be responsible for the development of SkyDrive’s complete aircraft real-time capable simulation models deployed on desktop computers and piloted engineering simulators. The simulation model is used for aircraft design and certification activities, for safety of flight assessment prior to actual flight test and for test pilot training. You will be involved in the development and integration of simulation models with the company’s engineering simulation devices.
You may also be called upon to develop, support, and maintain the simulation team’s software tools used to increase the team’s productivity and efficiency. These tools include requirements management, version and configuration control, data visualization, automation of tasks.

The "eVTOL" is the most advanced development in the world, combining "technology for flying" and "power electronics". To achieve this goal, our various teams, including flight controls, avionics, electrical/power systems, and flight sciences in collaboration with our test pilots, are working in unison to advance the project. We are confident that you will be able to fully demonstrate your abilities and participate in this world-leading activity, which you will not be able to experience anywhere else.
Computer based simulation has become an essential element of modern aircraft design to provide a robust, optimized, and safe vehicle for flight crews and passengers. SkyDrive has opted to develop its simulation capability in support of the design, testing and certification of its aircraft. You will play a pivotal role in this cutting-edge capability.
We offer an environment where you can expand your knowledge and skills by providing innovative software solutions to the company’s aircraft simulation testing needs.
