Key Responsibilities:
- Design, implement, and maintain HIL test benches including low voltage harnesses.
- Develop test scripts, models, and automation frameworks to execute and validate embedded control software.
- Integrate HIL systems with other avionics components.
- Simulate sensor and actuator interfaces using real-time models and signal conditioning hardware.
- SIL (Software-in-the-Loop), and HIL test workflows throughout the development lifecycle.
- Troubleshoot hardware and software issues on the HIL bench and work cross-functionally to resolve defects.
- Create and maintain test documentation including test plans, test cases, and validation reports.
- Collaborate with system architects and software engineers to define test coverage and improve test strategies.
Required Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field.
- 2+ years of experience in embedded system or test engineering with HIL systems.
- Strong knowledge of MATLAB/Simulink and scripting languages (Python, Julia, etc.).
- Experience in developing and executing test cases for embedded control systems.
- Familiarity with communication protocols (CAN, Ethernet, RS-485).
- Strong problem-solving and analytical skills.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Hands-on experience with one of the HIL platforms is a plus (e.g. dSPACE, NI PXI/VeriStand, or Speedgoat with Simulink Real-Time).
- Experience in automotive, aerospace, or industrial automation industries.
- Exposure to Agile development processes and CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins).
- Knowledge of safety-critical systems and relevant standards (e.g., DO-178C, ISO 26262, IEC 61508).
- Experience with automated testing frameworks or tools (e.g., ECU-TEST, TestStand).
- Experience with requirements-based testing and tools like DOORS, Polarion, or Jama.

What We Do
Hermeus is a startup developing hypersonic aircraft to radically accelerate air travel.
At Mach 5, more than twice the speed of the supersonic Concorde, passengers will be able to cross the Atlantic in 90 minutes.
On the path to hypersonic passenger aircraft, Hermeus is partnering with government agencies including the US Air Force and NASA to develop a series of autonomous aircraft that derisk the technology and solve urgent national security challenges. These products provide the data and confidence necessary to certify, produce, operate, and maintain safe and comfortable commercial aircraft.
Hypersonic aircraft have the potential to create trillions of dollars of new global economic growth per year, unlocking significant resources that can be utilized to solve the world’s greatest problems.
Why Work With Us
We prioritize hardware and people. Cutting-edge technology is only made possible by bringing together a world-class team. At Hermeus, you will be challenged – but also empowered. We encourage calculated risks taking and learning from our mistakes. Iteration is the name of the game.
